This Anti-Trend Piece Is Already One of the Biggest Buys for Fall
On the F/W 22 runways, there were plenty of high-impact trends. Among them was super-oversize clothing, which seems to be getting bigger each season. Grunge fashion tapping into '90s teenage angst and floor-sweeping hemlines are set to be the silhouette to wear in the coming months. One of the other big fall trends is somewhat surprising: the white tank top.
The white tank top is an unexpected trend for fall 2022 because of its simplicity, but its presence on the F/W 22 runways can't be denied. At Bottega Veneta, the opening look was a simple white tank and jeans—an intentional and clear statement about the hold white tanks will have on all of us come fall. Prada, too, opened (and closed) its collection with a white tank top—a style designed with the brand's signature triangle logo that was repeated in nine looks throughout the show. Solid proof that white tank tops will be a key buy for fall, logo or no logo.
Whether or not it's already in your closet, there are plenty of cool ways to wear the staple. Ahead, see how the white tank top trend was styled on the F/W 22 runways and how fashion insiders are wearing it now.
On the runway:
For S/S 22, Prada debuted a collection stocked with distressed leather jackets, which have since become one of the dominant trends for spring. Think of the white logo tank as Prada's answer to which key trend will be important to invest in for fall.
Though this outfit may look simple, it's actually constructed from leather. Here, Bottega Veneta is making a case for pieces that are pared-back, yet simultaneously high-quality and luxe.
The scoop neck silhouette was particularly strong, as seen on the Chloé runway.
Leather pants stood out as a key styling piece to pair with white tank tops, as seen here on the Bevza runway.
On the fashion set:
The fashion set has already been test-driving the trend. The Loewe logo tank has stood out as a key seasonal buy.
