Pitti Predicts is your connection to Instagram archivist Samutaro who’s here to talk you through Pitti 102’s main themes and the future trends you need on your radar.
As the fashion industry prepares to reunite in June at Pitti Uomo’s 102 edition - even after a reboot earlier in January - it feels remarkably more normal than the one this time 12 months ago. The mass re-openings in the wake of the global pandemic has given way to a collective feeling of hope as we dream of better days to come. This optimistic mood is certainly something that has been reflected on the runway over the past few seasons with designer collections banking on bright colour and joyful dressing as key directions to watch as we emerge from this thaw.
Some of the top trends for the seasons include Fuchsia pink as seen at Valentino where Pierpaolo Piccioli adopted retina-vibrating fuchsia as an extreme color strategy for the 81 looks that appeared on the F/W 22 runway show, set included. Meanwhile Simon Porte Jacquemus transported his audience to the sunny shores of Hawaii for S/S 22 where he sent models in head-to-toe skittles-bright looks along a cobalt catwalk that cut across the sand of the Moli’i Gardens’s beach on the northern side of Oahu.
