5 sustainable designers’ trends in 2022

Dressing in a more sustainable way does not mean losing the sense of fashion. More and more brands are daring to move towards a more sustainable path, and their proposals are more innovative than ever. They have little to envy the products of their non-sustainable competitors, and the days when ‘sustainable fashion’ was a synonym of simplicity and basic garments are long gone. Here are five of the most notable trends for 2022 from sustainable brand designers.

The most versatile knitted sweaters

Who said that a fine knitted sweater was a boring garment? Brands like SKFK or Gabriela Hearst bring all kinds of intricate patterns, which blend into their sweaters, which are full of bright colors. The wider the color palette, the more versatile the garment becomes. This versatility is precisely what makes the garment last a long time in our closet and can also be combined in an infinite number of ways. Investing in a garment of this style helps to reduce the amount of clothes in the closet, as a single piece can be used with many different outfits.

Yellow with natural dyes

You don’t just take a vitamin, you also wear it. One of the vitamin colors that has dominated the most within the proposals of sustainable designers is yellow. It can be worn in all kinds of garments, but dresses are the ones that have drawn the most attention every time they appeared on the catwalk. Light colors are those that require less dyes, and if these come from the organic production of natural dyes, such as the one produced from marigold flower extract, the dyeing of the garment can be achieved with the lowest impact on the environment. Stella McCartney and Raeburn are just some of the brands that have not been able to resist this cheerful color.

Tartan, a strong and durable fabric

The tartan pattern invades the stores every year, thus proving its timelessness. Due to its checkered shape, it allows all kinds of color combinations, so that everyone can choose the one that best suits the rest of the garments in their closet. It is a classic option that is never left out of the annual proposals, so it can be considered as one of the patterns that can have a longer life in the closet. In addition, its thickness and its difficulty to wear out make it a very durable fabric, which will withstand continuous use. Options such as the ones launched by Maggie Marilyn are very eye-catching.

‘Statement’ skirt, a timeless garment

Tops and blouses are no longer the protagonist; in 2022 skirts will not let them be overlooked, and they will be the most outstanding part of the outfit. Whether for its color, pattern or texture, having a special skirt will be a must in any fashionista’s closet. If you choose an A-line and midi length one, like the ones we suggest in this article, we ensure that it has a timeless look and can be worn for decades without feeling outdated. In addition, it is useful in all kinds of occasions, both in the work environment and in more formal events. Choosing one that has neutral or earthy tones, like the ones we propose below, is the perfect way to make sure it will prove to be as versatile as possible.

Maxiprints to make the most out of your forgotten garments

This year will undoubtedly be one to be enjoyed by those who like to attract attention with the way they dress. Patterns are no longer discreet but full of color and unexpected shapes. Having a garment of this type is ideal for giving life to those garments in the closet that are more monotonous, and helps to adapt the everyday closet to special occasions, so that the consumption of garments is reduced. For those who prefer to see a more subdued version of this trend, Ziran is the right place to go.
