These Will Be the Most Important Designer Bags of 2020

Meet Lisa Aiken, fashion director of Moda Operandi and one of our style icons here at Who What Wear. Lisa is championed within the industry for setting trends and spotting new designers like it's no one's business. No, really—if there's a cool new brand or rising trend, she's not only already wearing it but has also edited it into Moda Operandi's shopping selection for all to enjoy.

Since we're always looking to Lisa for our next shopping move, we're thrilled she's agreed to join us as a columnist on the site, serving the latest and greatest when it comes to trends, style, and shopping. Today, it is with great honor and excitement that we welcome her as she discusses the designer bags she is predicting will be extremely popular in 2020.

Ahead, follow along as she walks us through the five designer bags to know come next year, and preorder the bags from Moda Operandi, should you not be able to resist getting your hands on them.

Loewe is a brand that turns out hit after hit. Joining other cult favorites like the Gate and Puzzle, the Ballon bag is next. Debuting for Spring on the runway, it's like a cross body drawstring, but it's fairly constructed. It's sure to be spotted across the street style set and all across your feed.

Paco Rabanne's 1969 bag gained attention this year and shows no signs of slowing down. As the ultimate disco bag, it's been around since 1969, attesting its longevity. Utterly modern, it's the cool girl's less-stuffy option for evening. 

Right out of pre-fall market, I fell in love with the Island tote from Staud. It's epic and oversize in a season all about large silhouettes. A perfect relaxed tote that's big but not heavy, and practical but still fashion.

The Susana bag from Mark Cross won't be the bag seen everywhere, but it is the bag that will live on in your wardrobe for years to come and still feel chic. Surprisingly roomy and exceptional well-made, Cross does heritage so well. Take my Grace bag, for example—I still have it after seven years, and it's a classic in its own right.

The Jodie from Bottega feels very much like old Bottega, thanks to the iconic weave. Giant or mini, it feels of the moment but heritage, which is the best thing when you invest in a designer handbag. Go wild on the color—orange is feeling oddly neutral.

Next up, find out which trends everyone will still be buying well into 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...
