Feathery footwear! Statement cardigans! Ginormous-shouldered blazers! The post 19 Spring 2019 Runway Trends Everyone Will Be Wearing in No Time appeared first on theFashionSpot.































































































Big, Boxy Blazers
Big, boxy and exaggeratedly shoulder-padded blazers were all the rage among Spring 2019 showgoers, and the collections followed suit (har, har). On runways across New York, London, Milan and Paris, no single item turned up more than a loose-cut (kind of ill-fitting) blazer. Honestly, we're still warming up to this trend — is anyone else reminded of Kanye and Lil Pump's "I Love It" video? — but we're here for the propagation of non-gender dressing.

Cool Cardigans
Yes, cardigans can be cool. Sexy, even. For Spring 2019, the once oppressively prim-and-proper sweaters got the high-fashion treatment at Versace, Gucci, Loewe, Marc Jacobs, Christopher Kane and more. Equipped with ruffled trim, glittering epaulets, kitschy brooches and oversized buttons, these were a far cry from the frumpy, pilling things you use to ward off aggressive office air-conditioning. Bonus points if you wear them unbuttoned to just above the navel.

Geometric Bags
What was it with geometric bags this season? Perhaps inspired by the stunning success of Balenciaga’s Triangle purse, designers were all about the handheld circles (Marine Serre, Chanel, Peter Pilotto) and squares (Louis Vuitton, Versace, Etro, Dolce & Gabbana). Will they actually fit any/all of your essentials? Probably not, but that's beside the point.

Sheer Layers
As evidenced by New York’s Spring 2019 shows, a sheer dress layered over boy shorts (and, if you’re feeling especially modest, a bra) is still very much the look — all hail Maria Grazia Chiuri. However, if you're looking to show only a hint of skin, or to add interest to your outfit without obscuring any part of it, next spring will be the time to do it. At runways across the globe, sheer-paneled tops and see-through underlays and overlays abounded. Peek-a-boo.

Beach Vibes
From the chunky platform flip-flops at Jil Sander and Salvatore Ferragamo to the scuba gear at Calvin Klein and Marine Serre to the actual lifeguard chairs and cabanas at Thom Browne to Chanel’s seaside extravaganza to the dizzying number of tie-dye swirls on runways across all four fashion cities, it was clear designers had one thing on their minds: escapism. Per Karl Lagerfeld and Raf Simons (respectively), ground your beachy neoprene and spandex with more terrestrial items like denim jeans and ruched midi skirts on days when you can’t get away.

Over-The-Top Couture
Princess ruffles, lace and whimsical proportions were big themes for Spring 2019. We very much enjoy watching designers’ eveningwear offerings get weirder and more exaggerated with each passing season. Here’s to fashion that demands attention.

Feathers Everywhere
Feathers have been back on-trend for the past few seasons, and it doesn’t appear the light-as-air accents are going away anytime soon. Notable looks included the fanciful, plume-tipped dresses at Brock Collection and Valentino and the full-on Josephine Baker skirts at Rochas. Fluttery accessories also had their moment: Ostrich feather sandals floated down the runway at Prabal Gurung and MGSM, avian-inspired ear and hair pieces tickled our senses at Loewe and Dries Van Noten, respectively.

Super-Short Hems
Get ready to show some leg: Micro-mini dresses are a must-have for Spring 2019. Sky-high hemlines were omnipresent on the runways, making especially memorable appearances at Versace, Prada, Saint Laurent and Celine. Go barelegged or slip on some statement tights; ground the look with stilettos, platforms, boots, brogues, whatever you damn well please. (Although, pro tip, a flesh-tone heel is an instant leg-lengthener.)

Netting
While we’re on the subject of figure-flaunting frocks, net dresses were another Spring 2019 standout. The lovechild of the sheer dress and all-artisanal-everything trends, these diamond-patterned pieces can be worn with naught but underwear or layered over virtually any outfit to add instant oomph.

Sparkle and Shine
“Sequins reflect optimism,” Laura Kim and Fernando Garcia, the designers behind Monse and Oscar de la Renta, once said. Well, if that's true, given the uncertainty in the news as of late, we're in need of all the glitter. And for Spring 2019, Ashish, Marc Jacobs, Altuzarra, Dries Van Noten and many, many more delivered. Hope you didn’t delete your KiraKira+ app.
