With the winter season coming to a close, it’s exciting to be able to wear short sleeves again. This coming spring, there will be many new trends along with some reoccurring ones that many people love.

Many clothing trends are set to come back from last year into the spring season. For example, corset style and tops and crocheted everything. You can also expect to see color galore, color maximalism, color-blocking and more. Reoccurring low and mid-rise jeans are on their way back too. As much as many love crop tops, you can expect to see longer shirts to pair with the jeans, channeling a 2000s vibe.

Ballet flats are also making a comeback, not just basic black ballet flats either, you can expect to see anything from fun colors to classic and pointy. On the complete opposite side of the ballet flats, chunky platform heels are here to stay during spring 2022. One that is particularly popular at the moment would be the Steve Madden heels in the style Charlize that come in many colors. They are a bit pricy with the total coming to around $140 but are considered the “dupe” to the Versace Medusa platform heels that come to a total of $1,425. These heels can pair with basically everything if you get them in black satin.

Many expect to see slightly more monotone colors along with the bright maximalist colors like burnt orange, pastel yellow and tones of purple. Many patterns are returning such as the retro, colorful designs that one would see in the ’70s or ’80s. The abstract swirls are back but slightly different, instead of the crisp lines and similar colors we know, there will be more contrasting colors and more mixed together. Other patterns like plaid can be expected to be seen in matching sets this spring and we love to see them.

Spring will be a great time of year to see people express themselves with fashion, fun colors and patterns or more monotone outfits with simple statement pieces are ways people express themselves.
