Summer 2022 will go down in the books as one of the hottest ever. The anticipation of cooler Fall days ahead will be a welcome relief. The following are the “must have” fashion items for Fall 2022.
All That Glitters
Glam and glitz rule. Sequins are everywhere – from all-over beaded dresses to sequin purse straps, this is your year to shine. Don’t be shy.
Robe Coats
Self-care continues. Wrap coats and jackets will keep you cozy all winter.
Head-to-Toe Leather
Vegan or real, leather was offered in bombers, blazers, trousers, skirts, blouses and dresses. Lots of color choices besides black – ivory, camel, navy and tobacco.
Unbridled Love
The equestrian look always does well in Kentucky. Single-breasted blazers, slim pants and riding boots compliment this trend.
Monochromatic Dressing
One of the most outstanding looks for fall was the neutral story – ivory, beige, camel to caramel. The color palette lends sophistication to pantsuits.
Barbie core fashion
Pink rules this TikTok-inspired fashion. Valentino showed an all-pink segment (including the stage) in his recent runway show. Celebrities and newscasters have embraced the color. Mix tones and textures to add interest to this monochromatic style.
Velvet Dreams
Stretch velvet brings glamour and comfort to fashion. Gretchen Scott is offering a ruffle-neck top and matching palazzo pants in black for a holiday look.
This year brings a return to feminine dressing. After a couple years of casual wear, we are ready to dress up. Bows, pearls and ruffles “fancy up” even sweatsuits.
We are busy unpacking boxes daily filled with the latest fashions from all your favorite designers. Pappagallo is committed to helping you look and feel your best every day.
