Most Wanted
A curated roundup of the best new fashion arrivals, hand-picked by our editors
The SS22 runways were awash with rich and vibrant colors, inspiring us to peel off our muted winter layers and embrace expressive hues. A sense of wanderlust infiltrated the collections, with designers such as Proenza Schouler’s Lazaro Hernandez and Jack McCollough referencing the revitalizing nature of travel. Their collection featured laid-back pieces with polish – clothes you want to wear ‘out out’ that feel as good as leisurewear. “They stretch and move; we all want to be comfortable,” the duo told Vogue Runway. Take this bright yellow dress, made from a stretchy crepe material, which caught PORTER shopping assistant Connie Parkinson’s eye.
“A bright dress is essential for me as we head into the warmer months, and there is nothing I don’t love about Proenza Schouler’s yellow maxi,” she says. “It captures SS22’s themes of bold color, longer lengths and exciting details. The magic lies in the asymmetric cutouts, showing just the right amount of skin for sunny days. This hard-working dress will see me from day to night, with strappy heels and gold jewelry making it perfect for an evening with friends.”
To embrace vivid colors in cooler climes, consider Gabriela Hearst’s tie-dyed ‘Miller’ sweater, or Ganni’s wool and alpaca rib-knit in vibrant orange. Layer them over favorite denims or swishy maxis for chic trans-seasonal style.
For a more subtle take on the technicolor trend, Gianvito Rossi’s cobalt ‘Elle’ mules will enliven LBDs, Cult Gaia’s ‘Aliza’ bag in the brand’s ‘palm’ green will bring a vacation vibe to nine-to-five tailoring, while Stone and Strand’s emerald hoop earrings are sure to become an everyday signature, adding a hit of color to both your on- and off-duty style.
