Floral trends have been changing drastically over the past few years. The design vision for 2022 is clear: flowers will be more important and expressive than ever to lift the mood. With unpleasant events taking over the world and hope for the end of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is time for events to gain their momentum back and look more extravagant than ever. Key floral themes that have already seen popularity this month are minimalism, practical arrangements, and romantic toned down color palettes. Due to the current high demand for more sustainability flowers, silk flowers and dried flowers are expected to stay on the rise as well.
Let’s delve deeper into the 2022 floral trends. When it comes to muted colors, the shade “very Peri” which is a muted periwinkle purple color is the pantone color of 2022. This also translates to the floral world, as we see more demand for unusual periwinkle toned flower arrangements. This color portrays warmth, calmness, and growth which goes along very well with the overall atmosphere 2022 holds in terms of upcoming events, celebrations, and putting an end to the pandemic. Similar colors will be trending in 2022, this includes shades of violet and muted pink.
Another trend that's having a major comeback in 2022 is minimalism. Floral arrangements will be less bulky and grand. Asymmetrical designs have shifted from fashion to floristry and monochromatic color schemes gather a lot of attention. Think more elegant and classic designs that focus on using less flowers. This is also in relation to the focus on sustainability. Less is more when it comes to flower arrangements these days which in return has a better impact on the environment.
As for event and wedding floral arrangement trends in 2022, floral installations will definitely play their part this year. This could be in the form of hanging hoops or flower clouds, and big pops of (dried) flowers and pampas to fill the space and create a wow factor. Natural styles and tones down colors for backdrops and flower centerpieces will likely be the more favorable option for wedding ceremonies and events. In addition, flowers in 2022 will go beyond their standard appearance. As more and more people are invested in personalized gifting, this trend will most likely continue into the unforeseeable future. Same thing goes for the new infatuation with floral subscription services.
