These were the top emerging fashion brands of 2020
Twenty-twenty, what a time to be alive. While we’re all looking forward to the day that the past 12 months are a distant, ‘did that really happen?’ memory, there are a few noteworthy exceptions to an otherwise Murphy’s Law-ridden year. Despite everything, there were four emerging fashion brands that managed to cut through the unfortunate clutter of the year to produce some exceptionally sleek designs.
We crunched the numbers and found four emerging brands that experienced a spike in interest in Stylight’s global markets. Which emerging labels were the talk of the town in 2020? Scroll through to find out.

A favorite among A-list celebrities like Zendaya and Solange, Stylight reported 155% more clicks for the label in 2020 compared to 2019.
