Welcome back to the 90s: Balenciaga’s winter 2022 collection promises a super vintage season

We will have to wait for the winter season 2022 to celebrate the 90s, but in the meantime we can steal some inspiration in Balenciaga style.

Remember the low-waisted jeans, the belts embellished with chains and the designer briefs in plain sight? If you haven’t gotten rid of these 90s must-haves, the good news is that next winter we will be able to show them off again. And if you want to anticipate the trends of true fashion addicted, you can wear something right now, letting yourself be inspired by the pre-fall 2022 of Balenciaga, which responds to fashion with a return to the 90s, not to be satisfied with the two thousand prevailing ones.

Balenciaga: the fall / winter 2022 preview collection is all 90’s

We know that the creative mind Demna Gvasalia just doesn’t like following trends, and if someone launches one that will tend to dominate a season, rest assured that Balenciaga will already be thinking about how to innovate and unhinge. So if the 2000s that dominate the current winter season weren’t enough, know that from next autumn the 90s will steal the show. Naturally reviewed and corrected by Gvasalia with an irreverent and innovative look.

A choice that is also confirmed in the communication strategy: no fashion show but only a look book made with Polaroid and VHS , which is already enough to raise the hype bar. Minimalism and grunge mix in a super vintage style, which is also the stylistic code of the touch of Gvasalia, who fell in love with fashion in those years, when in the late 90s he was a teenager without internet between rave and underground community . Black, of course, still remains the color to which all looks and all other nuances will have to match.

Back to the 90s: maxi volumes, fluorescent nuances and jeans

And now that Demna makes and creates fashion, living this dream fully, this pre-fall 2022 is a taste of the celebration of late nineties style that we will see returning to our wardrobes. In addition to black, the fluo colors of lemon yellow dresses, lime green fur coats, pink tweeds and blue cardigans steal the show: the celebration of an ultra-colorful palette that expresses, recalls and revisits itself in the light of the multicolored that dominated the look of those years . Jeans are the undisputed cult item of the collection of course.

The volumes are always the maxi ones of Balenciaga, but to be mixed with rectangular silhouettes of jackets and coats, but mixed with tight cuts of sporty crop sweaters that strictly leave the navel uncovered. Jumpsuits and slip dresses to combine with maxi boots are the emblem of street style according to Balenciaga, which we can also steal for this late winter season, to have fun anticipating the next trends.
