I just finished attending the F/W 2022 season of New York Fashion Week, so I’m feeling pretty inspired by what I saw on the streets from the fashion set, especially from those who are already NYC based. Despite it being February, the first few days were at a perfect 60 degrees, so I luckily got to see a peak of spring fashion and I have to say, I already want this cold weather to disappear immediately. While I love to follow trends from cities like Copenhagen and Paris, the style from New York just always seems more effortless and combines fashion and function better than any other.
From chunky platforms to colors that you’ll have you stand out in the crowd, see the eight spring trends stylish New Yorkers will be wearing when the weather starts to get a tad warmer.
On the streets of NYC, I saw no shortage of Kelly Green. 2021 was big for the bright color, and it’s only getting bigger this year.
Heels aren’t the most ideal for trotting around NYC but if you are one for heels, platforms are the way to go.
I’ve always been scared to opt for extremely saturated shades, but after seeing all the street style this past week, I’m ready for all the color this spring. Play with colors for the whole look or opt for a statement accessory—it’s all up to you.
Biker jackets are by no means new, but they trickled out of mass popularity for a short period. I’m predicting more of an oversized fit will be favored, so try to size up.
Fellow editor Eliza Huber has been championing the sporty sunglasses style for quite some time, and it seems like the rest of the city is catching on. It adds such a cool element to any simple ‘fit.
Comfort is key when it comes to NYC style and cargo pants perfectly meet those requirements.
You can thank Miu Miu for the wave of micro minis.
While I wish I could completely ditch outerwear for good the second spring hits, I know there will be some sort of transitional weather. NYC girls will definitely be trading in their big black puffer jackets for a quilted version.
