#3. Slip dress

Started as an underwear, now we’re here. The silk body flattering effortless slip dress [yes, they’re all that and more] are back and at the fashion forefront. From Marilyn Monroe’s wardrobe to our present time, this deathless piece remains unfazed. You could rock it as a full blown dress to that evening cocktail or layer it on a turtleneck top for a millenial chic look.

#4. Knitwear

Knitwear is back this Spring and we welcome them with arms stretched wide open––a little dramatic but you get the point. This vintage trend from the ‘60s is back with a bit of a makeover. Try layering it over a dress or just throw them on and pair with denim for that breezy casual look.

#5. Interesting collars

Peter pan has nothing on you with this interesting collar trend which can be anything from chelsea to peter pan, mandarin to bishop, and every exciting collar in between. You can wear it alone or layered. But I’ll say, layering for the win! Think layered looks are not for you? Think again––this time think long and hard. If you weren’t around in the ‘70s to rock this look, 2022 is your chance.
