We've surveyed the SS20 runway looks and picked out the top 5 fashion trends that are practical and timeless, as well as stylish. From classic polka dots to 80s inspired puff sleeves, there's something to suit every taste.
Suiting
Trouser suits were all over the SS20 runways. They’re super chic, sleek and versatile. This coming season keep your eyes peeled on the high street for lots of pastel and earthy toned separates. Trouser suits are perfect for work, weddings, holidays and even dressed down for day to day.

Leather and faux leather looks became very popular at the end of 2019, and we’re set to see an even bigger surge of leather on the high street this coming spring. Leather, PU and vinyl clothing of varying colours will be plentiful. Leather trench coats and macs are set to be particularly popular and make a fun retro change from a usual beige trench.

It’s time for leopard print to take a step back, as 2020 is the year for snake print to shine. Spotted numerous times on the SS20 catwalks, snake print is dubbed to be the hottest animal print of the season. If fancy a subtle pop of animal print, opt for a snake print shoe, bag or belt.
