The last stop of fashion's world tour, Paris dazzled us once

again with a packed roster of runway shows and presentations. As a destination that's long been home to a number of storied fashion houses and big-name designers, the city of lights is the place to go when you want to witness real fashion, with a capital "F". 

After a year of virtual presentations and digital lookbooks, designers unleashed their latest collections with a mountain of showstopping moments; the Simpsons made an appearance at Balenciaga; Miu Miu showed us the real meaning of micro-mini; Cardi B turned out the streets of Paris in a plethora of looks. But, in between the viral moments were a lot of great clothes and accessories—so good our eyes are still digesting.

With heavy-hitters like Valentino, Givenchy, and Dries Van Noten in the fashion week lineup, you know you're in store for a trend forecast of the ages. After analysis of the collections, we've narrowed it down to the 7 trends that were simply too dominant to ignore. Ranging from shimmering sequin to rebellious takes on the preppy aesthetic, and more, take note because these will be in your face all 2022.
