Spring Into Winter
Florals for winter? Actually kind of groundbreaking.
- Date: December 8, 2022
The doldrums of winter are upon us. Rather than sink into the void of an all-black wardrobe, however timeless that may be, take a page from Mackage, Collina Strada, and Comme des Garçons and embrace a more spritely look. Pastel pink puffer coats, crystal water bottles with daisy patterns, and vintage scarf silk dresses in blossom pink might just be the cure for S.A.D.—or at least a useful at-home remedy. Even those leaning into S.A.D. could find a floral piece to work into their winter wardrobe: Raf Simons’s re-issued fall 2003 t-shirts featuring New Order’s Power, Corruption & Lies album cover are the perfect fix for feeling happy and sad at the same time.
