Fashion Trends We’ll All Be Wearing in 2020, According to the Runways

I wouldn’t necessarily call myself a big ~planner~, but when it comes to keeping an eye out for upcoming trends, I like to think I’m pretty capable. I mean, I’m the sort of person who plans her fall wardrobe in spring, so you know I’ve already got my eye on what trends we can all expect in the new year. While, of course, everything is a bit of a guessing game, checking out designer runways can help predict the 2020 fashion trends. (Plus, they’re just fun to peruse for outfit inspiration.) If you didn’t really pay much attention to the 2019 runway shows, have no fear. I took a good, long look at what designers will be offering in the next year and put together a list of 12 different trends we’ll all see throughout 2020.

Whether you’re someone who likes to plan their wardrobes months in advance or just like to keep ahead of the trends, you’re sure to find what you’re looking for below. From the runways of Caroline Herrera, Off-White, Miu Miu and more, there are so many trends of which to be aware. Get ready to don some ruffles, polka dots and colorful leather ensembles in 2020. These trends are big, bold and statement-making. 2020 is leaving absolutely no one in the shadows.

TWICE’s Momo & Super Junior’s Heechul Are Dating & Try Not to Freak Out

Try not to freak out, ONCEs and ELF. TWICE’s Momo and Super Junior’s Heechul are dating. Super Junior’s management company, Label SJ, confirmed the news to the Korea Herald on Thursday, Jan. 2. “After getting along as close colleagues of show business, the two have recently started liking and dating each other,” a rep for the agency said.

The Korea Herald also reported that TWICE’s talent agency, JYP Entertainment, also confirmed the relationship. The confirmation comes after Market News reported in August that Momo and Heechul were dating, which SJ Label and JYP Entertainment denied at the time.

“The two of them are currently developing a beautiful love for each other despite their busy schedules. It’s been said that in the rough entertainment industry where many incidents occur, they are a great source of support for each other. Their relationship began as ‘close seniors and juniors’ but they are now a couple,” Market News reported in August, adding that the couple met each other in 2017 after TWICE and Super Junior appeared on a program together.

“Super Junior’s Kim Heechul and TWICE’s Momo are close friends with a senior-junior relationship. [The dating reports] are false,” a representative for SJ Label told Market News at the time.

JYP Entertainment also released a statement, adding “[The dating reports] are false, and the two are just close friends with a senior-junior relationship.”

Since news broke of Momo and Heechul’s relationship, members of both fandoms have taken to Twitter to support the idols in their new romance. “Today SM and JYP have confirmed that Momo’s dating rumors of Twice and Heechul are true. Let’s give them a lot of love. Be happy together, we support you,” one user wrote.

Another tweeted “When Idol fanboys dance to Signal and go jiirriit jiiriit, then ended up dating a TWICE member,” alongside a photo of Super Junior performing the choreography to TWICE’s “Signal.”

https://twitter.com/Wherearemygums/status/1212524954446630913?s=20 https://twitter.com/JoshuaHyo/status/1212574726826029057?s=20 https://twitter.com/aftermyooui/status/1211659975463882752?s=20

Momo isn’t TWICE’s only member to go public with their relationship. In August, JYP Entertainment and KONNECT Entertainment confirmed that TWICE’s Jihyo and Korean singer Kang Daniel are dating. “They are currently meeting with interest in each other,” the agencies said in a statement.

New year, new romance. We love to see it.

BLACKPINK’s 4 Members Were Discovered in Completely Different Ways

With two No. 1 albums on the Billboard World chart and seven hit singles, it isn’t hard understand why BLACKPINK is one of the most popular girl groups in the world. But how were BLACKPINK’s members discovered? Lisa, Jennie, Rosé and Jisoo have been in the band since it debuted with “Boombayah” in 2016, but what were their lives like before BLACKPINK and how did they become trainees for YG Entertainment? Well, like most K-pop bands, BLACKPINK’s road to success is complicated.

BLACKPINK, formed by YG Entertainment (one of the “Big 3” entertainment companies in K-pop), debuted in August 2016 with their first single “Boombayah.” Since then, the four-member girl group has achieved international success. The band, which has sold millions of records worldwide, became the first K-pop act to perform at Coachella in April 2019. The girl group also has a song, titled “Kiss and Make Up,” with Grammy winner Dua Lipa, and has caught the attention of celebrities like Harry Styles (who attended one of their concerts in April) and Ariana Grande. So, yes, if you haven’t heard of BLACKPINK by now, it’s time to catch up. And what a better way to start than learning how the band’s four members—Lisa, Jennie, Rosé and Jisoo—became a part of BLACKPINK in the first place.

Jennie

Jennie was the first BLACKPINK member to become a trainee at YG Entertainment. According to Korea Boo, Jennie moved from Seoul, South Korea, to New Zealand at 10 years old. While she was a student at ACG Parnell College in Auckland, New Zealand, Jennie was interviewed for a documentary by the network MBC, where she revealed that she listened to a lot of K-pop and had dreams of becoming an entertainer. (The documentary also made her first BLACKPINK member to be on TV.)

When she was 14, Jennie’s parents wanted to transfer her to a school in Florida in the United States to become a lawyer, but Jennie, who had dreams of becoming a ballet dancer when she was young, convinced her parents to allow her to return to Seoul, so she could pursue a music career. That same year, she auditioned for YG Entertainment with Rihanna’s “Take a Bow” and became a trainee. Jennie, who sings and raps in most of BLACKPINK’s songs, initially auditioned as a singer, but the heads at YG convinced her to train as a rapper as well after learning that she was one of the few trainees who could speak English. As a trainee, Jennie was featured in the music videos of several other K-pop stars, such as G-Dragon and Lee Hi. Jennie has also expressed that she was worried she would never debut after spending six years as a trainee at YG. Now, she’s considered one of BLACKPINK’s vocalists and rappers.

Lisa

In 2010, Lisa attended an audition in Thailand, where she was born and raised, to be a trainee at YG Entertainment. Of the 4,000 people who auditioned, Lisa was the only one to pass. When she moved to South Korea in 2011 to be a trainee at YG, Lisa, who was in a dance crew in Thailand before BLACKPINK, didn’t know a word of Korean. She studied hard at the language and eventually became fluent enough to be BLACKPINK’s main rapper. As a trainee, Lisa was featured in the music videos of K-pop stars, such as Taeyang. Though Lisa sings in some of BLACKPINK’s songs, rapping is where she shines. As a Thai, she’s also the only member who isn’t of Korean descent.

Jisoo

Jisoo, BLACKPINK’s lead vocals, became a trainee at YG Entertainment in July 2011. On an episode of Radio Star, she revealed that she was scouted by an SM Entertainment agent at a YG Entertainment concert, where she turned the offer down. Along with her K-pop career, Jisoo is also an established actress. Before her debut, she starred in commercials for brands like Samsonite, LG Electronics and Nikon, as well as the Korean drama The Producers. She’s also appeared in the music video of K-pop artists, like Epik High and HI SUHYUN.

Rosé

Rosé was the last member of BLACKPINK. Raised in Australia, Rosé had a knack for singing, songwriting and musical instruments. In 2012, when her father heard of an audition for YG Entertainment in Australia, her father immediately signed her up. “I used to live in Australia. It was a rural neighborhood, rather than a metropolis. So I stayed home playing the piano or the guitar and singing,” Rosé previously told fans. “My dad noticed that I like music, so he took me to audition. Before I auditioned, music had been a hobby, but once I came to Korea and realized where I stand in terms of skills, I became more passionate and competitive about it.”

She became a trainee in May 2012 and had the shortest training period in BLACKPINK. As a trainee, she was featured on G-Dragon’s song, “Without You.” Now, Rosé is regarded as BLACKPINK’s main vocalist.

3…2…1—Sephora Just Dropped Its First Batch of 2020 Launches

A new decade has officially begun and even though rent is due, I’m being somewhat irresponsible and indulging in retail therapy. Even if I’m nursing the hangover to end all hangovers, online shopping is my favorite way to spend a day off in-between naps and leftovers.

If you like starting fresh with a new routine at the top of every year, there are plenty of things on this list to choose from.

Maybe you need a multi-purpose salve for when your lips (or elbows) are chapped. Perhaps it’s time to try a new retinol since your go-to just got discontinued. And I know I’m not the only one who wants to finally master blush. Ahead, 12 newbies to get excited about this month.
