Perfect for spring and summer (and fall, too, if you layer a turtleneck), crochet dresses will be a 2020 staple. You can expect to see this cool trend in all of your fave stores in the upcoming months—just like it was all over the fashion month runways.

All things leather (and faux leather) are trending for 2020. Go bold with a colorful leather dress, or show off your dominatrix side with an all-black leather ensemble. Whip not included, of course.
