FRINGE COMMUNITY

For spring/ summer 2022, a large cohort of designers seem intent on putting out clothes that convey joy and few things delight more than fringe—it says that these are clothes in which to move, shimmy and dance. Flapper dresses show up at Fendi, Dior and Dolce&Gabbana, hinting at a new Roaring Twenties. At Chloé and Alexander McQueen, fringe takes on a more crafty turn, while Burberry and Proenza Schouler present sexier, more streamlined takes.
