Quickly winter is approaching! And many have been preparing for it. Among the joyous things with which you can meet winter cheerfully is freshening your wardrobe for the new season. To do it right, you better find some time first to have a look at what you already have to decide what pieces and outfits you need to add. And to avoid a boring wardrobe and dull looks, it is always a great idea to put some effort into new outfit ideas and trends to apply and personalize. In an attempt to help, Pouted lifestyle magazine presents 10 winter predictions and trends for next year. Now, let us get started.
1 The romance of vintage-looking pieces
Ruffled collars, shoulders, and cuffs along with puffy sleeves, are expected to form a massive trend in winter. Vintage-looking outfits showed up notably on the fashion runways. You could go for an all-vintage-looking outfit, but combining accents of vintage with modern style is more suitable for everyday looks.
2 Earthy colors
Earthy neutral shades have been quite trendy so far. No wonder since they are quite popular; plus, the 1970s fashion nostalgia that spread in the fashion shows of the season is another reason for the wide employment of earthy colors. You can add an accent of color to a neutral look, but also consider all-neutral outfits. It is predicted to go stylish this winter. For a dimensional vibrant neutral look, play with textures and different shades of the same colors.
3 Two-color pieces
Coats, dresses, and suits of two colors, half and half, are another good idea for winter 2020. It is inspired by the fashion shows of MSGM, which presented a beige and pastel pink coat, and elegant half beige and half black suit of Fendi. Half and half look could be achieved by light colors, two hues of the same colors, or contrasting shades like black and white.
4 Suits
Suits are essential outfits around the year. Pantsuits and skirt suits of long jackets have been trendy this fall and are expected to stay this way in winter. Regarding the bottoms, for pantsuits, loose-fitting pants are quite stylish, and for skirt suits, go for A-line and pleated skirts. You could add a vintage twist with a ruffled-collar shirt. Also, sheer blouses have gone big; it is a great idea to employ the see-through trend and stay warm in winter. On freezing days, top everything with a faux fur coat; it is another piece expected to rule this winter.
5 Printed coats
Among the prints that showed up in this fashion season’s shows are plaids, animal prints, and florals. These are statement outerwear and, therefore, are usually paired with quieter colored and designed inners, whether one or two pieces. However, prints over prints have also shown up, which leads us to number 6.
6 Prints over prints
Plaids over plaids, all-animal-prints, and all-florals are expected to show up this winter. However, it is a loud look that can easily turn into noisy. It is why many prefer accents of prints over an all-printed outfit. It takes experience and experimenting with different prints and colors to style printed-over-printed pieces elegantly.
7 Mini bags
Mini bags are indeed quite stylish and playful accessories, yet not equally practical. At the size of a palm, there is no room but for a few of your stuff. However, this does not stop many ladies, for tiny accessories have their own charm. Also, layering bags are predicted to be a trend in the winter of 2020. So, whenever you need a bigger handbag, wear both big and tiny bags, or clip the small onto the handles of the large bag. Among the trendiest mini bags are box bags and clutches.
8 Printed and embellished footwear
Floral boots, pumps, and ballerinas are predicted to go big this winter after appeared in the fall/winter 2020 fashion shows of Fendi, Dolce & Gabbana, Dries Van Notten, Anna Sui, etc. Also, animal printed and checked footwear were present too.
9 Colorful dresses
Although winter is more associated with neutrals, fashion designers have gotten bold when it comes to dealing with bright and vibrant colors. Therefore, do not think that colorful dresses are not suitable for the cold season. You do not have to say goodbye to them till spring and summer. Dresses of many colors and heavier fabrics such as velvet and corduroy showed up this fashion season.
10 The elegance of leather
Leatherwear has been a hero of the 2020 cold season. Fashion designers have employed it to create stunning outfits. All-leather and accents of leather were present on the runways.
