We'd be lying if we said that Pinterest wasn't our main source of inspo for pretty much everything. It's the place to spend hours (and hours) scrolling through a combination of trending fits, matching tattoos and gorgeous living rooms, all while creating the perfect imaginary life in our heads - feel seen yet?
As our go-to place for all things fashion, we were more than intrigued to read through Pinterest's predictions of the most trending fashion terms for 2022. The winner? Crochet tops - by a mile.
In the trend report, created in collaboration with New Look, Pinterest revealed that the term 'crochet tops' was mentioned in a staggering 316,148 pins - jaw drop. Ok fine, we can take responsibility for at least 100 of those, but that number is still SHOCKING.
Second came cut-out dresses with 88,000 pins (thx Maddy from Euphoria), closely followed by varsity preppy clothing. Still, neither of these terms came nearly as close as the humble crochet top, and with the amount we've been seeing on our favourite IG influencers, it's hardly a shock.
It's safe to say that crochet tops are a trend that'll dominate spring/summer 2022 fashion, so we've dug deep on the interwebs, spotting the very best crochet tops that money can buy.
