Working on the fall-winter 2020 collections, the designers could not even imagine that the shows would fall on the time of the global crisis. The same applies to the Vogue editorial office: when we were preparing our trend reports for the coming autumn, it was difficult to predict that cozy blankets would be relevant so quickly.
On the runway, this versatile piece has been spotted in many collections. Plaid has become a fashionable alternative to down jackets, jackets, coats and other outerwear. We saw the coolest pieces in the collections of Jil Sander, Chloé, Proenza Schouler. Get inspired by catwalk looks and embody fashionable ideas now, without waiting for new items in your favorite stores. Moreover, blankets in self-isolation are always at hand.
Throw them over your shoulders like the Michael Kors Collection, tie them around your neck like Jonathan Cohen, or wrap your head up like Kenzo. You can also experiment with a blanket – take an example from the models at the Rick Owens show. Coziness and comfort are the most current trend today.
