Evolution of Wide-Shoulder

 

As females in the new era grow stronger, the powerful wide-shoulder design is kept in women's overcoats. In A/W 20/21, the wide-shoulder structure is slightly upturned, while in A/W 21/22, this wide-shoulder look will be dropped, weakening the sharp feel.

3D Silhouettes


3D cutting will continue from A/W 21/22 to A/W 21/22, from overcoats to other categories. From overcoats of Bottega Veneta in two seasons, we can see obvious silhouettes. Firstly, 3D cutting enhances the volume and space of overcoats. Secondly, gathered collar releases the strong trend signal and the lifted waistline accentuates female form.

Changes on the Waist


Sculptural overcoats of Balenciaga show waist changes. From A/W 20/21 to A/W 21/22, the silhouette is clearly 3D and gets improved, with broadened shoulder and fitted hip line to lift the visual focus.
