While every year brings a new beginning, new goals and new resolutions, it also offers an abundance of new beauty and fashion trends. Thanks to the looks we’ve seen on the runway shows in the world’s fashion capitals throughout the year, some standout looks emerged and new trends formed for the upcoming seasons.
As always, the catwalks were scattered with some over-the-top, theatrical looks fitting for a designer show, but there was also endless inspiration for wearable, everyday looks everyone can try out next year. Here are some of the biggest beauty and fashion trends for 2020:
Glowing, dewy complexions
Since the skin can easily get dry, flaky and dull in the cold winter air, it’s no wonder that designers and makeup artists wanted to do something completely opposite; they showed beautifully glowing and hydrated skin throughout the biggest runway shows. Instead of the shining and shimmering highlights we’ve been seeing in the summer, this radiant look is all about healthy and moisturized skin that shows just a tiny bit of natural sheen and a radiant ‘glow from within’.
Barely-there makeup looks
Continuing on the theme of a natural and glowing complexion, as well as the last season’s minimalistic trend, a no-makeup makeup look is bound to be the biggest hit in the following seasons. Even though it’s been a runway classic for years, this makeup look has gained massive popularity among fashionistas and beauty influencers alike. Easily achieved with the help of a concealer, a bit of tinted lip balm and just a hint of mascara, barely-there makeup looks are designed to let your natural beauty shine through, simply emphasizing the best features on a face glowing with health and hydration.
Dermal fillers and injections
Even though cosmetic procedures are growing in popularity all around the world, this particular trend comes from Australia, where a large number of women have enhanced their beauty with a few simple tweaks. Aussie girls often opt for cosmetic surgery in Sydney, mostly choosing dermal fillers and injections that enhance their facial volume and soften the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, or even enhance the volume in their cheeks and restore fullness to their lips. Being quick, simple and effective, while increasing your beauty in a fine and subtle way, there’s no doubt these cosmetic procedures are going to be a big trend in 2020.
Lacy bralettes under blazers
Apart from your professional attire, it seems like the only way to wear a blazer next year is layered over nothing more than a lacy bralette. Runways were filled with this sexy and powerful look, as many designers played with the idea of showing off your figure, while still feeling like you are covered up. Usually paired with high-waisted bottoms to add more coverage, this flirtatious trend has already become a fashion blogger favorite, as everyone’s Instagram feed seems to be packed with these trendy outfits.
Pastel colors in every shade
Even though every season tends to have a prevailing color that is usually incorporated in almost every designer collection, this time it was all about toned-down and delicate pastel shades. Mostly in the form of peachy pink, orange, yellow and subtle green, pastel colors were seen all over the runways, usually in matching looks paired with different hues of the same pastel shade, or even combined with other pastel colors for a new take on the color blocking trend. While such light shades are usually associated with spring, expect to see feminine pastel looks even during the winter, mostly as redefined statement outerwear pieces.
Buttery soft leather pieces
Whether it’s real, faux or vegan, there’s no denying that leather is the most popular material everyone is excited about trying next season. From two-piece suits and structured dresses to skinny trousers, sleek skirts and the ever-popular trench coats, a growing number of designers are finding new ways of incorporating this buttery soft material into their pieces. Although there was an abundance of head-to-toe leather looks gracing the catwalks, it seems like this daring trend is mostly going to be worn in the form of one or two powerful statement pieces during the upcoming seasons.
