Sharp-sharp collars, fabrics without a single wrinkle… Ironed clothes, which have been the unchanging rule of our wardrobes for a long time, are now What if we say it’s not as popular as it used to be? Yes, wrinkled clothes, which have not been seen more often lately, may be the harbinger of a new trend. Last week, many unforgettable moments were engraved in our memories at Paris Fashion Week and we met trends that heralded the future. One of them was winking at an unexpected new trend: Wrinkles.

The Row, founded by Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen in 2006, displayed crumpled cotton pieces that looked like sheets, while Burberry also made room for wrinkled dresses. The Boottega Veneta show, whose star suddenly rose with Kate Moss walking on the podium, also made room for wrinkles with leather pants with prominent wrinkles. Prada also said, “I’m into wrinkles,” with some of the pieces in the collection, which includes short shift dresses and midi skirts.

All of this was not a coincidence, of course. Prada co-designer Raf Simons told The Observer that wrinkles are “error movements” designed to replicate “parts that have a lifespan.” Making room for wrinkles is interpreted in a post-pandemic world as moves that are compatible with a wider change in fashion, far from brilliant perfection and embracing all reality. The Guardian, on the other hand, includes the statements of Gary Armstrong, fashion director of the sports and fashion magazine Circle Zero Eight, that he calls ironing a “waste of time”. According to Armstrong, the fundamentals of the change extend to the pandemic, albeit partially, “People have gotten used to being more comfortable in their clothes. They don’t want to feel like they’re really starched,” he explains.

After several tough years of battling the climate crisis and the pandemic, shelving irons seems like a good option to save time and energy. Of course, wrinkles are for all brands and everyone. it is not suitable, but we can say that you should not worry too much about wrinkles in the coming days.
