The raw and staple materials were seen in the Autumn-Winter 2021 fashion week in London, fulfilling the customer’s demands for the nostalgic life. As we see how the epidemic has pushed people to reconsider the true meaning of modernism, now is the moment to appreciate vintage fashion and the tranquil life.
People are seeking tangible and quantifiable outcomes from the products they buy. Consumer perceptions of value evolved due to the epidemic, focusing on price, convenience, and protection.
Buyers also expect durability, the versatility of usage, and efficacy as they redefine value through a results-driven perspective. This is to adopt the primitive living components to disconnect us all from luxuries and conveniences of our capitalistic civilization and immerse us in the wild realm of nature.
Customers are turning to materials with organic aesthetics of nature-inspired design that is both wild and poetic, raw and soothing.
Light Materials
The concept of light is connected to the desire for transparency and the dynamic world we live in. To respond to the current times and circumstances, flexibility, conformability, and the ability to shift swiftly are the basic requirements.
The layering of the materials provides a fantastic effect when combined with ultra-light coatings. We expect to see light materials like silk, chiffon, and Egyptian cotton in 2021 as trending fabrics. Silk cami dresses are also to be again.
Denim
It’s difficult to fathom life without jeans, especially if they’re acceptable even in more formal workplaces. New processes allow for optical illusions and even traditional designs like the diamond used to denim a new look and improve its utility, making it one of the trendy fabrics in 2021.
Raw surfaces
Raw Surface answers the growing digitization of the world that increases the demand for actuation compared to the hard ones we use daily, such as our phones, keyboards, and screens.
The classic designs and weaving patterns have been given a new look by combining them with new yarns & materials. So, we are expecting raw surfaces to be seen as a trendy fabric in 2021.
Organza and lace
In autumn 2021, the lace fabric is expected to be interpreted in a completely new way. Transparency heightens the romantic and seductive tone of the style. Lace fabric’s primary feature this season is its exquisite, airy, yet vital feel.
Various crafts are employed to create different textures and a more relaxed and romantic atmosphere. Gauze is commonly used in conjunction with lace and needlework.
The mix of textures and materials
The primary goal is to showcase the creative process through various textures, layers, and patterns. The following are some vivid examples of the trend:
- Patchwork. When little bits of various textiles are assembled into a single attractive composition, it is called a textile mosaic.
- Embroidery. In 2021, the romantic design will dominate embroidery patterns. Exquisite, beautiful floral patterns will become increasingly popular on bed linens, curtains, and textiles like wool, velvet, and others.
Other trends are less evident than the conceptual spectrum. This conceptual palette includes medium saturation green, yellow, burgundy, violet, and pink hues.
