Vanessa Valiente - V-Style

The main fashion trends for 2019/2020 are pastels, bold colors, monochromatic looks, feathers, and skirts in general - we have not seen a lot of skirts for a while now and people are tired of jeans.

We saw all these trends during fashion week in September, but more importantly, these are the trends that feel the most fresh and have not been oversaturated the past few years if not the past decade, so it will have staying power.

1. Animal Prints & Mixed Prints

Prints galore are here to stay and are ready to wear, with stores like Zara carrying diverse variations with all different styles.

2. Leather

It’s an all year round fabric now which means a must have for your closet. From skirts, dresses, leggings you can’t go wrong with this trend and it’s also why it’s not saying goodbye any time soon.

3. Suiting

Suits are such a powerful statement and I love them. Even better for the Spring/Summer seasons with shorts to make it versatile for all year round.

4. Feathers

Not everyone can be Lady Gaga in Valentino when it comes to feathers but every girl should have a bit of this trend in her closet. Designers such Christian Cowan, Calvin Klein and Michael Kors have made it attainable.

5. Pleated Pants

The 80’s have returned in many ways but this front pleated pant look from that era is now modernized for a fresh perspective.

6. Dress/Skirt over Pants

The dress or skirt over a pair of wide legs gives not only a modest look but a taller look as well.

7. Logo printed Denim

Denim will never go out of style but giving it logo love is a definite way to spruce it up and a way for designers like Balenciaga, Chanel and up and coming designer Andre Emery to have a place to inscribe their logos.

8. Belted Bags

Modern meets the fanny pack so grab one while you can because belt bags are lifesavers while shopping.

2019 Top Trends:

Neon's
Pastels
Western Style
Bike Shorts
Tie Dye
Animal Prints
Suiting

Neon Brights are paving the way into 2019. Neon greens, pinks and purples were all the rage across the runways this season. Add this trend as a purse, hat or shoes if neon is too overwhelming for you.

If bold colors are not your thing. Pastels are still a big trend. Consider Pastels as the new neutral for 2019. Embrace baby pinks, blues and purples. Make sure to pick up a few pastel colors pieces as the weather starts to turn warmer.

Western was a big theme for 2019 with cowboy boots and fringe all coming down the runways. Use this trend to highlight your individual style.

Animal Prints have always been a popularly trend, but this print has evolved from zebra stripes and leopard spots to snakeskin print being the most popular animal print to dominate.

Power Suits are back in a big way and they help you standout from the crowd. Play up this trend with a bold suit in red or blue. This trend gives off a sophisticated and effortless style.

Bike Shorts is all the rage with the Instagram celebrity, everyone from Kim K to Hailey Baldwin is rocking this trend. I am not sure how wearable this trend is in real life.

Tie Dye is officially back as a core trend for 2019 - no matter how you feel about, expect to see this trend across retailers in jackets, sweatshirts and unique prints.

Ms Nicole René - msnicolerene.com

The main fashion trends for 2019/2020 are:

Bold colors that you can combine on fabric that looks good in the light such as sequins. Great thing about sequin looks now is that you can wear them casual or dressy.

Logo Accessories are back! Wearing logo accessories are going to be very popular going into the year. Chanel, Gucci, Fendi (just to name a few) have been on trend with this.

Fringe and feathers are going to be another trend going into the next couple of years. Fringe can be found on clothing, shoes, and accessories. Feathers can be found on accessories and handbags.

Of course fanny packs aren’t going anywhere. But have you thought about wearing oversized tote bags or doubling your bags? This is a new trend that has been hitting the scenes and was featured on the runways of NYFW.

Here is what we’re going to be seeing a lot of in the next few years.

1. Soft suiting

Full suits and suit material but fitting in a loose almost pajama type way. Complete matching 3 piece looks and also mixing and matching different suiting material for a complete look. Suit jackets have loose arms and are sitting just below the bum. Pants are high-wasted and loose and not tapered at the bottom but not bell bottom (straight leg).

2. Neon

Either full matching neon top pants and shoes or just a pop in a hat or an accessory, neon is very prominent in fashion for 2019. Think a package of highlighters for the main colors we are seeing and it’s showing up in leggings, fitted tees, bomber jackets and socks.

3. Leopard

Leopard and beige are the biggest pattern and color for next year. We’re seeing different kinds of leopard being put together and also matching leopard with levels of beige.

Shanna Battle - Me and Minnie

With a New Year come new trends and 2019 is an elevated blast from fashion’s past! The 80’s are back like they never left and every fashion trend all the cool kids loved are back but with an updated twist you could have never predicted in 1982!

1. Neon

No better way to welcome the 80’s back than a bright pop of color and to ease into this uber popular trend use accessories to give a subtle kick to any look and when you’re ready to step it up a notch, pair a neon piece with a neutral one for a nostalgic but fresh look!

2. Fanny Packs

These are NOT the fanny packs your mom used to wear at amusement parks! Everyone from Gucci to Fendi has created their version of this 80’s fashion staple and the ways to style them are endless!

You could go old school and wear them at the hip but to bring this trend into the future, get creative and style them slung over your chest or around your waist!

3. Puff Sleeves

Pump up the volume! First brought back from the fashion dead by Emanuel Ungaro, this trend quickly was seen everywhere from Carolina Herrera to Anrealage.

Pair a puff sleeve top with your favorite straight leg denim and flats for an elevated weekend look or a pair of trousers and pumps for a unique look at the office.

4. Biker Shorts

Please throw the slouch socks and high top sneakers away and take a fresh perspective on this 80’s trend and pair your biker shorts with an oversized sweater and boots, a crisp white button down, oversized blazer and pumps or a cropped sweatshirt and sneakers; minus the aforementioned slouch socks!

And there you have it!

All the trends that will be taking over 2019 and extending their rein into 2020! Let us know what trends you’re excited to try!

Main fashion trends for 2019/2020 costs of a mash up of prints and from seasons ago. Plaid prints are trending from Plaid Blazers to Plaid Pants. Structured knee length dresses paired with a chunky sneakers.

Athleisure Wear that transcends from day to night. Biker shorts paired with Blazers and a pump or a designer sneaker.

Sequin, Silk and Satin are three trends that are most definitely going to transcend from 2019/20.

Oversized trench coats and Puffer jackets in a multitude of colors are dominating the outerwear space.

Tailored suits no matter the brand is never ending trend. Invest in a great tailor to perfect this look. Oversized or Chunky sweaters are still relevant in 2019/20.

Wearable tech is making a bigger presence this year with athletic apparel and outerwear. Tye Dye usually known from DIY projects is coming center stage as designers are making the print more subtle.

Crochet dresses and footwear (i,e sandals ) are also relevant the next two seasons. My favorite trend of all Logo Mania! This covers many spaces from accessories to apparel and will be a constant fixture on runways for the next few seasons.

Nicole Quiroz - IDENTITYrx

As a fashion designer and owner of my own women's brand, here are my picks for fashion trends for 2019/2020:

1. Athleisure

The athleisure trend has no end in sight. Although this trend has been growing over the last five years, consumers are looking for new ways to wear gym clothes outside the gym.

Expect to see over-sized/exaggerated sleeves on workout tops, hoods and even neon colors. Every woman seeks comfort on her toes, so more and more women will be wearing sneakers with jeans, dresses and shorts.

2. Techwear

A still budding trend within the athleisure scene, techwear is the newest trend still waiting to hit mainstream audiences. Techwear is clothing that is meant to stand against the elements and make life easier.

So expect clothing to have more functionality, such as waterproof tops, lightweight windbreaker jackets and accessories like harnesses, reflective vests and hip belts.

3. Sustainable fashion

People are becoming more aware of the impact they make in the environment. In an effort to reduce waste, consumers are now choosing fashion labels that are eco-conscious.

Expect to see more clothing made with recycled materials, vegan leathers, vintage hand-me-downs and repurposed textiles.

One look that's sure to pop up in 2019 and beyond is holographic clothing .

There's just something about the pearly, glossy, and shimmery colors of a holographic design that's ultra bold and experimental, without making you look like a six-year-old whose trying too hard to look grown up.

Whether you pair holographic heels with your favorite pair of boyfriend jeans and a simple top, or go all out with a knee-length holographic coat, you simply can't go wrong with holographs.

Those looking to experiment with holographic clothing can start small (think shoes, nails, bags, and other small accessories) before gradually becoming more and more bold with the look.

Just remember: the easiest way to pull off a holographic look is to pair it with neutral colors like black, white, or pastels, and no matter what--don't wear two holographic items of clothing together!

No matter how you incorporate holographic elements into your look, confidence is the best accessory. So put a smile on and get out there and strut your holographic stuff!

Jacinta Richmond - Sunshine Coast International Fashion Festival

The trends for 2019 will overlap within target markets, but all will have a hit of:

electric bright blue
black and white animal print
comfort with an edge

For the teen market, they will continue to focus on the 1980's and grunge 1980's. They will switch from the denim shorts and crops to a massive slip dress focus and maxi skirts.

Girls wearing guys clothing is getting bigger all of the time. As the teens move into their 20's fast fashion will struggle with this political generation.

Jumpsuits will continue to be successful but only with the followers of fashion, not the style makers.

For the mature market, look for an edginess to everything. No "boho" but do think Cruise and Resort glamour, as the turban continues it's moment over Summer and in velvet/brocade/beading/sequins for Winter. It's glamour, it's comfortable and very chic. Style, not trend.

The generations are choosing to dress differently from each other again.

Anne Gorrie - Wardrobe Fashion

2019 and 2020 look to be big years for redefining style across the world.

With years of experience dressing fashionable women in designer clothing, we are predicting a return to the ’80s as the dominating style trend over the coming year.

This means bold shoulders and sharp tailored lines, with bold busy patterns.

Blazers and pant suits will be the go-to over the winter months, while summer and spring will see the emergence of structured sundresses and skirts.

Metallics and Biker Shorts Forecasted To Be Fashion Favorites In 2019 + 2020.

SS19 fashion weeks started to hint that sporty, metallic sheens were going to be all the rage in upcoming years.

From Custo Barcelona's debut of chromed out pieces with bursts of color reminiscent of a discotheque era to Milly's placement of a transparent neon orange coat on top a plain metallic silver mini dress, it's safe to say that this bold trend of time's past is once again a fashion breakthrough.

In addition, the resurgence of biker shorts is a trend that's here to stay. Not only did we see high profile celebrities and regular fashion week go-ers sporting biker shorts with over-sized coats or tops, but even one of the biggest names in luxury fashion, Chanel, validated the trend on the runway.
