WOOYOUNGMI Fall/Winter 2022 collection continues the house’s ethos of modern elegance. Bringing an atmosphere of nostalgia and old glamor, this season the brand focuses on pops of color, highlighting jewel-toned green, pink, orange and blue, a palette is derived from the iconic Saint Basil’s Cathedral.

The co-ed collection features a contemporary take on monastic headdresses, fastened at the front as scarf-like mini capes. This season, WOOYOUNGMI builds on its balaclava collection as well as fresh silhouettes that include a series of cropped knitwear and jackets. The collection intermingles soft tailoring with utilitarian structures including classic bomber jackets and overcoats. Favoring a multi-colored tone, denim button-ups and pants sport a tie-dye effect while color-blocked knitwear continues to display uneven lines for a smudging effect of shades. The layering of overcoats with knit vests and button-down shirts gives the outfits a sense of depth and complexity, though designs are kept minimal. Often, a pop of color is added to the outfits as a vibrant sweater is paired on top with neutral-toned pants and coats, commenting on the contemporary silhouette of the FW22 collection.
