Top fashion trends of 2019 that are sure to make a comeback in 2020!

Gear up, people! The year is about to board the farewell train, and while 2019’s been, well, interesting, we couldn’t help but gape in awe at the fashion trends that definitely left a mark!

The top fashion trends of 2019 brought out the retro in some of the best ways! Tiny accessories, boiler suits, and bike shorts gave us a major 1990s throwback this year and the icing on the cake was only made better with personas such as Rihanna, Gigi Hadid, and Kim Kardashian showing us the 2019 way to upgrade these looks and incorporate them into the everyday!

While the runway might showcase upcoming fashion drifts, the streets are where you get to know what’s trending and they display the future in a more realistic fashion.

Here are the top 5 fashion trends of 2019 that are expected to stick around in 2020 as well:

Bike Shorts

The reawakening of Princess Diana’s leisure outfit choice – the bike shorts have recently made an appearance and people seem to have taken a fondness to it! This athleisure trend is as unexpected as it can get and even more stylish. Multiple style-savvy showgoers were seen flaunting these bike shorts with blazers and we love IT!!!

Where can you wear it – The strikingly chic look might not be an appropriate office or gym wear, however, the outfit is perfect for a lazy Sunday brunch or a late dinner!

Utility Jumpsuits or Boiler Suits

I love a chic coverall! When these stylish utility jumpsuits hit the streets in 2019, we couldn’t help but crush on them. The greatest aspect of a utility jumpsuit is that you have a horde of cool footwear options you can pair it with – sneakers, heels, and combat boots! And also, do not forget to accessorize – literally, the sky is the limit with this one here. The vintage vibe of the outfit goes with every mood and can literally be pulled off at any event!

Where can you wear it – These long-sleeved boiler suits can be donned anywhere – from an office event to a vacation! To rock this look, select the cut and colour that satisfy your individual style. This functional yet fashionable outfit doesn’t fall short of varieties, so you’ll have plenty of choices.

Lavender Vibes

If there’s one thing that fashionistas have proved this year, it’s that soft purple tones can be seriously stylish! While Ultra Violet might have left a mark as Pantone’s colour of the year 2018, street style stars have made a statement with their mellowed take on 2019’s trend. Whether it is a pair of boots or a full ensemble, the light colour added a touch of feminity and came out a winner!

Where can you wear it – Soft lavender is perfect for a date-night! You can also take it up a notch by rocking it with a pair of red heels for an enhanced, contrasting effect!

Fun anecdote – I paired a lavender wide leg crop pants with a white shirt, the combination worked out so well, I feel like a fashionista walking the ramp!

Puffed Sleeves and Shoulders

The minimal trend has become a thing of the past, and this is evident in the way attendees of the show season are pulling off lashings of fabric. This actually resulted in a modern 80’s twist with puffed shoulders, oversized silhouettes, and bold ruffles making an equally bold statement! I have always been a staunch admirer of puffed sleeves, they are striking and super stylish and can literally be worn anywhere!

Where can you wear it – If you’re in the hunt for a fashionable yet powerful daytime style, a puffed shouldered dress or top is your jam! This trend makes for a fashionable yet formal attire, however, you want to subdue the rest of your look, to not appear over-the-top!

Vibrant Tartans

If you thought you could pull off a Tartan only during the holidays, think again! And this year, Tartan was all over the streets of Milan, New York, Paris, and London. In the true style of the fashion week, the beautiful pattern wasn’t donned subtly! In fact, the fashion packs were seen wearing colourful, bright patterns of Tartans that turned millions of heads. Take the look and own it with a stylish Tartan jacket, suit, or even a jumpsuit, because, why not?

Where can you wear it – I have always felt that the Tartan is a very formal albeit uber-stylish print and therefore, makes for a chic office wear. Match it with stylish accessories like a tote bag and neutral heels like black or white.

Last but certainly not least is our favourite leopard print! From the cheetah-print skirt that destroyed Instagram to accessories, this look was all over the place this year!
