So long, loungewear, bye bye, baggies. After a stretch of lockdowns, it’s time to up the style ante for 2022. Velvet fashion is trending, so invest in rich textural pieces that ooze glamour; think bodycon dresses and sharp velvet blazers in gem-bright hues and groovy prints. Browse our edit below.

Velvet is a transseasonal staple that can be revived again and again for multiple occasions. From Christmas party dresses and autumnal layering pieces to spring accessories and stylish summer swimsuits (don’t knock it until you’ve tried it), velvet fashion is well and truly here to stay.

Want in on the trend? As always, keep the planet in mind when shopping. Re-wearing old clothes is the best way to be sustainable, but if you can’t avoid it then shop consciously at responsible retailers, as well as rental and resale sites.
