I have a hunch that two-tone pieces will explode in 2020. While there is already plenty of cool market, it’s also been trickling onto recent runways like Chanel, so it will have serious staying power.

Oversize Suiting

Suiting was one trend that defined 2019 but will continue to be big in 2020. Want to pull it off like an NYC girl? Take inspiration fromBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing fashion editor Lauren Eggertsen and look for oversize proportions.

Leather Trench Coats
