Atlanta Apparel is forecasting minimalism, practicality, sustainability and vintage as key fashion trends for Autumn/Winter 2020 with showcases of these styles through both products and programming at the upcoming market, April 14-18, 2020 at AmericasMart Atlanta.
“Four major themes are guiding styles this season: a return to minimalism with a ‘less is more’ mentality; practicality, functionality and comfort dressing; a focus on sustainability and sourcing items with long-term appeal; and a return to heritage and vintage items,” said Morgan Ramage, fashion director for Atlanta Apparel. “At Market, we will demonstrate how retailers can make these abstract concepts a key part of their product mix through our educational programming, fashion events and trend presentations.”
