We can totally call 2019 the year of fabulous fashion! From so many stand-out looks to recreating utter classics, we witnessed a lot of sartorial goodness this year.
Karl Lagerfeld's death to Giorgio Armani winning 'Lifetime Achievement' Award, a lot went down on the fashion front this year. From making a mark at the starry red-carpets to bringing in the sartorial drama to the world of glamour, our favorite labels have managed to make us swoon with their stunning ensembles and impeccable sense of style.
Valentino
Serving up a Daydream this year, Valentino's Spring 2020 collection was all parts dreamy and unreal. In terms of couture, it saw an eclectic mix of muted hues and pristine whites.
Keeping it crisp and elegant as always, this collection was a soft blend of classic trends with some modern elements.
On the red carpet, Emilia Clarke, Gemma Chan and Dakota Johnson gave us stand-out looks at the red carpet.
But nevertheless, the prize for the most dramatic outfit goes to Lizzo, for carrying the world's tiniest bag at the AMA's this year, while sporting all Valentino at the red carpet!
Talk about making a mark!
Chanel
Karl Lagerfeld's death was a great loss to the House of Chanel and the fashion sphere alike. His successor to the chair, Virginia Viard is now the captain of the ship and we're ecstatic for what's to come.
Showcasing her recent collection for the label's 2019/20 show, Viard's vision mixed elements of Karl's codes with fundamentals from Coco Chanel's roots and rulebooks.
And undoubtedly, the mix was worth all the hype!
House ambassadors Margot Robbie, Lily-Rose Depp and Kristen Stewart gave us some rather stunning lewks this year, sporting various ensembles from the label's archives.
Versace
Donnatella Versace strikes again! From new designs to classic archived looks, the label served some major inspo this year. With their seasonal collections rolling every quarter, our celebs made the most of Versace's sultry, yet utterly charming ensembles.
Glamorous, feminine and totally out-of-the-box, Versace has served some off-the-charts looks and we LOVE it!
The Jenners, Jennifer Lopez and Dua Lipa made a statement at the MET in these extravagant dresses...
...while Rosie Whitley and Selena Gomez stunned in these custom ensembles.
Armani
Giorgio Armani's label has been in the industry for the longest time, but only recently was honored with the 'Lifetime Achievement Award' at the British Fashion Awards.
From designing ensembles ahead of their time to reviving archived designs for special occasions, the label has done it all. Charming, crisp and utterly classy would be the best way to describe their collections!
Zendaya to Barbara Palvin, these divas can't seem to have enough of this label and we tend to agree! What are your thoughts?
Prabal Gurung
Unique, lively and absolutely electric! Prabal Gurung has managed to make 2019 his canvas and oh boy, we feel his art is underrated!
So many divas opted for the designer's creations this year and we are glad we got to see more of this goodness.
Awkwafina, Camila Mendes and Jessica Alba stunned in these vibrant outfits and we are still not over it! Talk about wearable art!
Christian Siriano
Whacky couture, dreamy ensembles, structured to perfection, Christian Siriano has been an easy choice for anyone who wants to make a statement appearance.
From being loud and snazzy to conveying a message beyond serving fashion, Siriano's creations are definitely more than just revolutionary.
From Billy Porter's monochrome magic to Lucy Liu's purple charm, this label is on the forefront of creating a sartorial storm and we cannot wait!
Ralph Lauren
Talk about absolute class and subtlety and we cannot think of anyone but Ralph Lauren.
Minimalism as their key element, this label has often made us drool with the simplest and most classic silhouettes!
Be it a soiree or a red-carpet gala, a Ralph Lauren creation can be easily spotted in a crowd.
Louis Vuitton
Upbeat and snazzy, it's never a dull day with Louis Vuitton!
Their parent company LVMH and their ever-expanding family knows no bounds! They recently bought Rihanna's Fenty and Tiffany & Co. under their banner and we were shell-shocked!
From their chic monochromes and anagrams to their futuristic prints and sturctured designs, LV always keeps it swanky on the red carpets.
House ambassadors Emma Stone and Sophie Turner sported the label's ensembles all year round, making our eyes pop with their effortlessly stunning #OOTD's.
Special Mention: Zac Posen
Zac Posen has been a household name in the industry for almost two decades now. The designer and his esteemed label have been a favorite at the runway and among the celebrities alike!
Just recently, the designer was forced to shutter his namesake brand, as well as House of Zac Posen due to financial restrictions.
Redefining couture and wearable art, Zac has designed some of the most breath-taking ensembles we've ever seen!
Nina Dobrev's and Katie Holmes' MET outfits were amongst the few we absolutely adore! Another loss to the fashion industry...oh, Zac!

Quite a roller-coaster ride! What are your views?
