SPRING FASHION RUNWAY 2022 SERIES

In the Palais, Bennani installs binocular-shaped screens to cut through the space, reforming and re-editing the physical experience of the show and projecting her films into real life. Its architecture remains, a runway devised by AMO snaking through the centre, the audience balanced on Eames office chairs as an echo of the Palais’ continuing function as place of work.

Underscoring these ideas, the interior of the Palais d’Iena is interrupted rather than transformed. These fantasy sequences are mixed real-time into the broadcast of the show to blur lines between virtual and real.

Conceived alongside the collection, Bennani commands control of the Miu Miu live stream via a series of filmic artistic interventions starring her own mother.

Here, that idea is echoed and overlapped with another interrelation, of women and fashion. The physical and virtual spaces of the Miu Miu show are punctuated with works by the artist Meriem Bennani, whose body of work explores intimate relationships mediated through the camera.

Spring 2022 Fashion Trends - Runway Trends Spring '22 Every product on this page was chosen by a Harper's BAZAAR editor. An antidote to meaningless novelty, the collection examines fundamental realities of dress, the needs and wants of people from their clothes. Everyday alongside every night, the aesthetic language of day and evening dress each serve a purpose and have a meaning within life. The notion of reworking existent pieces extends to a collaboration with New Balance - the 574 sneaker is re-proposed in white, khaki or blue denim, with raw-cut edges.Įmbroideries reflect the decoration of night-time attire, embellishing dresses and suits. Edges are left raw, elements of construction exposed in commemoration of the spontaneity of these actions. Trousers are cut into abbreviated skirts, sweaters and shirts carved out to reveal the body. A new balance of proportion is found through cutting into pieces - retaining the believable character of each, yet altering their relationship with the body. The foundations are classic - trousers, sweaters, shirts, blazers, suits and sheath dresses, absolute archetypes of everyday dress. The Spring/Summer 2022 Miu Miu collection by Miuccia Prada is an exercise in referencing and researching reality, using the existing to create the new. Elsewhere the focus is on the very Ralph combination of flannel shirts and ikat sarongs wrapped at the hips with vintage turquoise and silver concho belts from his own personal collection.A reaction to and reflection of reality, an economy, a freshness found in iterations of eternal, universal garments. The denim showcases the studio’s more artisanal approach this season ditto a printed ikat leather dress laser cut into strips for an almost origami-like effect. Ikat tailcoats and blazers are paired with relaxed chinos or artfully embroidered jeans. The new collection lifts directly from that archival image, retaining its eclectic, laid-back spirit, while amping up colors and womanly shapes. A scroll through the Instagram account #oldralphlaurenads will teach anyone unfamiliar with the man that Lauren doesn’t lack for personal style. Its touchstone was a vintage picture of the designer holidaying somewhere in chinos and ikats. This collection, in contrast, seems driven by Lauren’s cravings for wanderlust and adventure, which of course aren’t unrelated to the last two years of inertia. As working from home gave way to scheduled returns-to-office, neutral cashmere layers were replaced by crisp suits in a vivid palette of orange, green, and navy. During the pandemic, Ralph Lauren made wardrobing collections of elegant clothes tailored to his clients’ circumscribed day-to-day activities.
