Five high-shine metallic trends to watch out for at Atlanta Apparel!

Who’s ready for Atlanta Apparel? From June 4-7, the Fashion and Accessories Marketplace will return for its June edition, marking the last chance to place orders for fall 2024. Shoppers, from small boutiques to multi-door retailers, will be on hand to discover the latest trends and styles to watch out for in the coming months. Talk about planning ahead for a vacation! However, before the upcoming season, metals have already attracted our attention with their shine and shine. Below, take a look at the top shimmer trends to know about before visiting Atlanta Apparel next month.

Meshes that catch the light

Metallics have taken on new forms in recent seasons, with an emphasis on textures and knitted shapes. Crochet dresses in a range of silhouettes, from sleeveless to maxis, continue to populate the market in a variety of tones. Light-catching silvers and golds are the most popular, while slightly darker matte shades will appeal to more minimalist fashionistas.

Elegant wedges

It’s no secret: wedges are indeed making a comeback. In the coming months, the chunky-soled shoe takes things a step further with slick, shiny iterations in a variety of mirrored and matte metals. Like crochet, the sandal faces a series of dynamic changes for the season through new accents like upper braiding, criss-cross knots, monochrome textures, and more.

Shiny cocktail outfit

Classic cocktail dresses never go out of style. After all, who doesn’t have a trusty mini (or three) in their closet? This time around, the dress code-defined piece gets a touch of whimsy thanks to shimmering metallic tones, from all-out shine to elevated trim. Redesigned details like ruffled sleeves, bubble hems and cutouts also elevate the texture, offering a range of options during the holidays.

Jumpsuits gained a touch of glamor from understated metallic tones and shimmering fabrics, creating instant statements with just one piece. Meanwhile, similar textures have been spotted on button-down shirts and blouses, trousers and skirts ranging from maxi to mini, ensuring there’s a brilliant ensemble to suit every taste.
