I've Been in Fashion My Whole Career—My Gut Says These Are 2020's Biggest Items

I began my career as a fashion editor back in 2010 (fun fact: it was at Who What Wear!) and throughout the past nine-plus years, I've observed countless trends come and go—and come and go all over again. Low-slung jeans, oversized sunglasses, flatform sandals; if it was a style trend in the last decade, I probably covered it in some capacity. And though I don't consider myself anything akin to a trend forecaster, at this point I do believe I have an intuitive sense of when an item is going to pick up steam and have longevity in the trend cycle.

In the spirit of celebrating a new decade, I rounded up the items I suspect will be huge come 2020. Continue ahead to see what they are and if you want to get ahead of the curve, shop the pieces you'll keep in your closet for the next ten years.

You can kiss your micro bags goodbye because 2020 is going to be all about the oversize bag. 
This year was all about sustainability, especially when it came to fashion. Next year, brands that emphasize eco-friendly production practices will lead the pack.
Female empowerment and the suiting trend go hand in hand, which is why these tailored separates are destined to pick up steam in the coming months.
It's no coincidence everyone and their mother wore something tie-dye in 2019. Keep an eye on whimsical, playful prints in the New Year.
High heels are cool and all, but so is your foot health, which is why fashion is likely to continue stepping in a more comfortable direction in 2020.
Thanks to brands like Nanushka and Stella McCartney that are elevating the fabric, stylish vegan-leather separates are a glorious reality.
Everyone's murmuring about the new take on the cardigan these days, which means the next six months have a very exciting knitwear situation in store for them.
Long gone are the days when skinnies were the denim silhouette du jour—it's all about the straight leg now, just you wait.

And now: seven street style trends that will dominate in 2020.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
