However, now that it’s 2019 the trend has officially been upcycled in a way that makes it perfect for every occasion. Designers like Barbara Tfank were seen adding dramatic puffed sleeves to their summer/spring ready to wear collection. The puffed shoulder sleeves immediately make this simple off-white dress more memorable.

9. Sustainable fashion

An important question for the fashion industry actually revolves around the sustainability of fashion. Glamour revealed that a lot more people are becoming conscious about this because Pinterest data states that searches for sustainable fashion have increased by 34% in the past year. This is because many fashion houses have come under scrutiny when it comes to the sustainability of fashion and how it’s impacting the environment. Sustainable trends typically involve opting for ethical fashion houses that don’t rely on sweatshops in order to create their clothing.

10. Shorts

Biker shorts have been around for a while and it looks like this fashion statement is not going anywhere anytime soon. A lot of people attending the shows during fashion month were spotted pairing biker shorts with brightly coloured tailored blazers. Speaking of fashion month, broad shorts seem to be standing out on the runways too.
