Ever the diligent fashion pupils, we've been studying up on 2020 trends since they walked the runway in September. We've never been more ready to show off all our hard work — and share it with all of you. On that note, we're gearing up for the new year and the new dress code with a brief tutorial on the nine major trends you're about to see all over.
Some have been quietly percolating, while others are a total refresh. They range from the sexy to the sophisticated, and often, a little bit of both. In fact, they're all open to your interpretation and how you wear them. From bra tops and blazers to all-leather-everything, this is the lineup we'll be relying on to keep things interesting, switch up our styling, and usher in a new decade. Herein, the top nine trends of a brand-new year.
1 Cardigans
The classic is back, and this time, the styling's not so basic. Wear it buttoned-up as a top, thrown over the shoulders, or even backward. This 2020 investment may be the most versatile in your whole wardrobe.
2 English Factory Belted Cardigan
3 Ganni Knit Pattern Cardigan
4 Madewell Jungle Cat Cardigan Sweater
5 Knit Dressing
Knit dressing goes beyond the sweater dress, with new silhouettes that feel both minimalist and fashion-forward. These are the pieces you'll live in, and while they're as comfortable as a pair of sweatpants, they look infinitely more chic.
6 Zara Knit Crop Top
7 H&M Rib-Knit Skirt
8 Jacquemus Perou Dress
9 Zara Buttoned Wool Vest
10 Bermuda Shorts
The length to love? A cool Bermuda cut is the one you'll be seeing lots of, and it happens to be appropriate for all occasions. Think of these as your go-to and wear them to the office with a button-down and heels or dressed down with sandals and a sweater for Spring.
11 Vince Coin Pocket Bermuda Shorts
12 Zara Faux Leather Shorts
13 Frankie Shop Julie Pleated Gabardine Shorts
14 Oversize Bags
Handheld bags have had their run — next season, it's all about an oversize tote that has room for everything and then some.
15 Bottega Veneta Basket Leather Tote
16 Studio Amelia Oversized Leather Tote Bag
17 Zara Extra Large Leather Tote
18 Neutrals
While bold and bright is undoubtedly eye-catching, you'll want to tune in to the new neutrals. These shades were made to turn heads, all without trying too hard.
19 Frankie Shop Double Breasted Suit Blazer in Cedar Brown
20 Sea Scott Pants
21 Zara Jumpsuit With Belt
22 The Leather Effect
Faux leather has never been bigger or more fun. In fact, leather isn't just reserved for Fall and Winter anymore. Basic silhouettes are revived with this fresh material, making your everyday separates that much more interesting.

24 Frankie Shop Faux Leather Zip Top With Puffy Sleeves in Plum

27 Lioness The Don Jacket
28 Zara Pinstripe Pants With Skirt
29 Anine Bing James Trousers

32 H&M Microfibre Bra Top
33 Aritzia Wilfred Margaux Blazer
