Trend SS23: Crochet Mania We thought it had passed and instead...

On TikTok it has an impressive 12.4 million views, numbers that take away any past crochet and put it back in the Olympus of trends in 2023. Although its origins have been lost in time, examples of this textile art have been found in the East, as well as in Africa, Europe and North America. In the 1500s, Italian religious orders used the crochet technique to make addops and decorations. The types of workmanship are so varied that fringes, webs, spider webs, floral motifs and lace can be found in the shows and looks of celebrities in all parts of the world. Here's a mini-guide between catwalks, styling and targeted shopping.
