Guido Maria Kretschmer has a feel for trends – also beyond fashion. In the guide he gave us his predictions for 2022.
With the beginning of a new year horoscopes are rolled over, coffee grounds are read and pewter figures are poured to find out something about the next 12 months. We’d rather ask Guido. After all, he always has a good nose for trends – and has long since become a popular advisor in his programs, and not just in fashion.
That’s why we played the GUIDORAKEL with him in our interview. Guido told us ten words about what spontaneously came into his head for next year. And tada – not only did one or the other fashion trend crystallize, but also where things can go in the direction of living in 2022. But we don’t want to anticipate too much, but leave the floor to Guido Maria Kretschmer and his predictions. Read it yourself.
The guidorakel: How will 2022, Guido Maria Kretschmer?
Fashion
“It will be diverse, unusual and unconventional. The year 2022 will open up a new world of fashion, I’m quite sure of that”.
Unisex
“I think some will go back to very feminine and very masculine fashion.”
High heels
“They’re still a bit away at the moment, I hope they’ll come back because they beautify the leg a lot. I think it’s a bit of a shame because all the high heels are now on the shelves. On the one hand, it’s good to be on flat ground again On the other hand, it’s a nice way to look great.As a designer, I’m biased. But I think the need for heels to look good should be a thing of the past. “
Sneakers are the reparation for anyone who doesn’t do sports and still wants to be comfortable on the go.
Nail polish in men
“I find beautiful, with some very beautiful. Amazingly, it suits many men well. I think metrosexual men are also a trend.”
Sneaker
“Sneakers are compensation for anyone who doesn’t do sports and still wants to be comfortable on the go. I think the sneaker is actually the holy winner of the last few years for me – and it will become even more because it has also reached older people. Older people also notice that shoes are easy to wear, you slip in and are always on the move in a good way. I think sneakers are an integral part of the program. “
Socks in sandals
“It should never look like, God, he forgot to take off his socks. It can only work in the stylish version if it looks really well-groomed.”
A rug is good for peace at home
Vintage furniture
“I think it’s great when they’re clever and well-made. It’s a good contribution to sustainability. Especially nice when they come from the sixties. Except for the wall unit, please.”
Carpets …
“… are a big topic in 2022. Carpets are not only soundproofing, they are also cozy, I think that the floor definitely belongs to the furnishings. As an avowed carpet lover, I would say that it is an essential part of the basics of comfort. I believe that a lot of the arguments people have on tiles would turn out differently if it were a little less echoing – a rug is good for peace at home. “
Wallpaper
“I call it wall paper, it opens up a new dimension. Wallpapers are fashion forward. They give rooms a three-dimensionality, which is very, very beautiful. It’s also a kind of statement and has poetry – like a new version of the photo wallpaper.”
Will be shipped to the attic
“All the drying stuff! There are just so many drying arrangements on the way that just make dirt and fly around – it burns so quickly too! I hope that it flies. That would be my big wish. And I also have a slight macrame lock. It’s enough now, the windows can be cleared again. So nothing against self-made things – but that can go slowly again. “
“And in fashion: those too loose, misshapen coats can be put in the attic together with these tiny, tiny rucksacks. And fur is finally over for me now, really, anyway, but also fake, all those fur collars and bobbles. I don’t really want to say what should work – so much is possible in fashion! “
In this sense: a happy new year for you!
