Warming Up to Spring Fashion

The recent warm weather and trips to the beach are reminding us that winter is coming to an end and spring fashion is on its way. From Y2K to gingham print, spring 2022 is showing range and making a statement. Reflecting back on spring fashion shows, flaunting white pieces and neon cut outs, gives fashion lovers insight to make predictions for upcoming trends. 

There are many students who enjoy expressing themselves through fashion. Surfer style has always been popular on campus, representing brands including Former, RVCA, Vissla.

Sophomore Pierce O’Leary says his style is mostly inspired by his friends and older surfers he looks up to. He describes his style as, “Former meets surf and skate meets alt streetwear,” and corresponds his fashion to his lifestyle. Anticipating the warmer seasons, O’Leary is looking forward to “breaking out [his] flip-flops and sandals. [He also] wants to invest in some button-down shirts as well to keep [his] style classy.”

Bright colors, sun dresses and common summer styles are back in fashion after a long and cold winter. Matching sets and mini skirts ruled the spring look runways and have forecasted streetwear style. 

Senior Ava Yang has a love for fashion and is pursuing her passion at NYU by minoring in fashion this coming fall. 

Yang’s favorite trends currently include gloves and tights, which have been brought back in the past couple of months. In the coming season, she would like to see more headpieces and accessories, “like balaclavas and head scarves.”
