It might still be winter, but there’s nothing wrong with looking forward to the upcoming season—especially when it’s one that brings warmer weather. There’s a wave of new spring 2020 trends to get excited about, but there’s one in particular you can wear right now: suiting. A familiar and often repeated trend, suiting will never go out of style, though each season brings new iterations and silhouettes. Most of the spring 2020 suiting trends—like shorts and skirt suits—wouldn’t work in cold weather. Yet there’s one look that’s winter-weather appropriate: the ’70s-inspired suit.
The opposite to raised suiting hemlines via the season’s favorited shorts, these winter-ready styles are long and lean. Say so long to broad shoulders, boyish fits, and boxy shapes for now—and hello to mix-and-match suiting. There are single-button blazers that fall down to the thigh, skinny flared trousers that make legs look a mile long, and waistcoat vests to accompany the latter, channeling the ultimate ’70s spirit.
Here, get the three spring 2020 suit trends you can wear now, below.
Long and Lean
Replace boxy suit jackets with a sleek thigh-length blazer that can be worn now and this spring. Add a pop of color to your winter wardrobe with styles from Theory and Smythe, go minimalist in neutrals from Stella McCartney, or add a bit of extra ’70s flair with narrow notched lapels, long sleeves, and slits at the cuff from H&M.
Flare Up
A slimming skinny trouser is a flattering silhouette when it comes to balancing out long and lean blazers and those boxier oversized styles too. These flared ends work with both your winter boots now and your spring sandals, mules, and pumps later.
The Third Musketeer
Three-piece suits as well as waistcoats worn solo were seen throughout the spring 2020 collections at Rag Bone, Celine, and Etro. Wear one under a blazer or over knits for the rest of winter, until you can wear it all by itself come summer.
