They might seem like a minor part of the getting ready process, but as any fashion lover worth their salt will know, accessories are an essential component of a well-functioning wardrobe. They can take an outfit from fine to fabulous in a matter of seconds—whether it's a pair of heeled boots, a crossbody bag or a simple hair accessory.
For many, designers accessories are the calling card that reflects their currency in the industry. You know that when a certain bag is spotted on the arms of the people in the know at fashion week that it won't stay in stock for long. Accessories from a coveted brand can be catapulted into the spotlight at lightning speed, in no small part thanks to the magic of Instagram which sees new release proliferate on feeds the very day they drop.
For 2020, the designer accessory machine shows no sign of slowing down, and the big brands are offering up some real winners for the start of a new decade. From Khaite's zebra-print boots and Prada's chunky-sole boots to Bottega's croissant clutch and Simone Rocha's pearl-drop bag, scroll down to see the accessories that are set to spike in 2020.
