PFW SS20 Street style: 5 key takeaways on how to achieve the best style come 2020

The Spring/Summer 2020 shows have come and gone faster than you can say “Lol, someone crashed the Chanel show.” As it has been for years, the city of lights closes the season, with Chanel, Miu Miu and Louis Vuitton. The elaborate runways were not only source of head-turning looks. The romantic city was graced with some of the most original and memorable looks from the street style scene.

With 2020 right around the corner, these fresh ensemble spearhead us into a bigger, better and brighter decade. Ahead, 5 key recurring themes we picked up on and ideas on how you can incorporate them into closet come 2020.

Tonal dressing FTW

We’ve said it once, twice and we’ll say it again: When in doubt, bring out the tone-on-tone trick. Do it like Eva Chen with varying colour intensities and textures, and no one will guess that you spent 20 minutes staring at your closet thinking you had nothing to wear.

Turn up the colour play

Can’t commit to a single hue? Hey, monogamous relationships aren’t for everyone. Play the field with multiple colours. The more the merrier (?)

Do the clash

Ready to take it to the next level? Get wild and experiment with prints. When it comes to the battle of the prints, it’s no holds barred. It’s time to break all the rules.

It’s high time for gender neutrality

Speaking of breaking the rules, whoever said dresses were for girls, and trousers for boys is dead wrong. Girls (and boys) can wear whatever they want! Designer labels and brands have also been creating unisex collections to be enjoyed by all. If it’s socially acceptable for a woman to wear a pantsuit, why can’t a man wear an apron dress? Equality goes both ways.

Let your accessories do the talking

If you’re a conservative and rather keep your political views on the DL, perhaps you’d prefer to let your accessories do the talking? You won’t have to utter a word with standout statement accessories like these.
