The disruption that shook the fashion world in 2016, from designer departures to the hubbub around see-now-buy-now fashion, is likely to continue into 2017, with brands questioning how to make fashion stick in an ever-increasing digital age. Even amid the confusion and chaos, though, there are constants we can count on, like the people who will dictate the trends of the year to the trends that are likely to dominate fashion on and off the runway. Familiarize yourself with the whos and whats that are sure to rule 2017, below.

The fashion world’s favorite rumor proved true in August when it was confirmed that Raf Simons would be the new head honcho at Calvin Klein. The Belgian’s arrival stateside cements a new chapter in American fashion, with brands like Marc Jacobs, Coach 1941, Proenza Schouler, and presumably Calvin under Simons adopting the spectacle, craftsmanship, and drama associated with European fashion. What’s more is that Simons’s own aesthetics line up well with those of Calvin Klein—always on the hunt for the throbbing heartbeat of youth culture, be it in music, art, or beauty. In short, Simons’s appointment at Calvin Klein is one of fashion’s best matches—and something worth looking forward to in 2017.

If the word athleisure makes you grimace, fret not. The omnipresent black legging and midi sport top may well be on their way out, at least if Tory Burch has a say. The designer’s collection of elegant, country club–ready athletic apparel, Tory Sport, took athletic clothing and elevated it to a level worthy of the “Burchgeoisie,” as a friend calls Tory and her clan of well-clad fans and followers. Where Burch has prodded, other designers have followed, too: See A.P.C.’s chic workout wear with Outdoor Voices and Tim Coppens’s downtown cool collections for Under Armour.

In 2016, monochromatic marieprom dressing really took off, with celebrities and designers endorsing head-to-toe color in droves. The most popular shade, for people such as Kim Kardashian West and brands like Hermès, was a rich hue of camel. Next year is bidding that restrained color adieu in favor of lovely, shocking, and joyous shades of pink. Valentino, Balenciaga, Marc Jacobs, Céline, Givenchy, Bottega Veneta, and more sent out numbers in all types of rose, making it the color to beat in 2017.

For a while there, it seemed that the Stan Smith would never be unseated as fashion’s footwear of choice. Well, that time might have come. Designers proposed teetering platform shoes, like Balenciaga’s square-toed stompers and Maison Margiela’s lifted loafers, leaving us clamoring for new heights. Just be careful walking on cobblestones, and running between fashion shows, for that matter.

The designer denim resurgence of the 2010s might have met its match in the workwear-inspired khakis that were all over the Spring 2017 runways. Alexander Wang gave the pants a slouchy feel worthy of his surfer babes, the Kenzo duo looked to high-waisted and structured ’00s styles, and Rag & Bone’s Marcus Wainwright made his preppy and slightly sheer. Of course, you can’t go wrong with a pair of classic workwear Dickies or Carhartts. However you take your trousers, the moral is: The more beige the better.

In today’s world, you don’t need much more than your iPhone when you leave the house—and designers have taken note. For seasons, Jeremy Scott has been producing kitschy cases at Moschino, and for Spring 2017 Nicolas Ghesquière replaced Louis Vuitton’s covetable bags with an even more-so phone case in monogrammed leather. Should you want to bring more than just your phone when you go out, the bag to reach for is not the black leather bucket, but rather a wild, kooky, and fun novelty bag like Balenciaga’s striped shopper or Fendi’s mini, fur-trimmed number.

Logo mania took 2016 fashion by storm, but for 2017, brands are focused less on themselves and more on getting a message of togetherness across. Michael Kors intarsia-ed a sweater with the word love, Haider Ackermann went with be your own hero on tees, and Dior’s Maria Grazia Chiuri chose Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s phrase we should all be feminists. Hear hear!

We’ll see if this one catches on, but if Christopher Kane has his way, the fashion set will be replacing their sensible Birkenstocks with even more sensible Crocs. The superlight shoes were the star of Kane’s Spring 2017 show; the designer wowed his crowd with his willingness to partner with a brand considered so outside the world of high fashion. Even if you won’t be wearing the kicks, you have to commend Kane on his audacity to upend expectations again and again.

Some trends are forever—or at least for several years. Such is the case for statement earrings, which arrived on Céline’s Fall 2014 runway and continued to dominate the Spring 2017 shows. The best bets for 2017, we’d venture, are Proenza Schouler’s door knockers or Altuzarra’s cherry red hoops.

The world of skincare tech is awash with snake oil products that promise to clear your skin: Chunky plastic masks that make you sweat or try to vibrate the dirt right out of your pores; face “belts” that lift the wrinkles right off your face. They’re usually more commonly found at the drug store than at stores like Sephora—devoid of any recognizable brand name. Now, Samsung is getting in on the face care act at CES 2017, announcing two new products that promise to improve your face with a mix of cameras, LEDS, and nanotechnology.

It’d be a whole new world of wow if everything about Samsung’s new products didn’t feel so familiar to anyone who has seen the many skincare gadgets from Japan Trend Shop. We’re skeptical that either of Samsung’s new gadgets would work, but at least the science behind Samsung’s Lumini sounds a little more solid. It’s a pink and white camera that you use to shoot pictures of your skin. An app on your phone then judges your exfoliating habits. That’s pretty difficult to screw up.

In addition to computers assessing your skincare regime Lumini goes the extra mile and lets a remote dermatologist assess your skincare regime, too. So you wouldn’t have to use your phone to take a pic of that thing on your nose and ask your doc if it looked infected. Instead you could ask some phantom doctor that Samsung connects you to.

S-Skin, Samsung’s other skincare device, feels a little less useful, which is incredible considering Lumini’s most useful aspect is its ability to photograph your face. S-Skin is actually a whole super techie skincare regime that involves patches, a device, and your Samsung phone. It theoretically possesses abilities that read like a greatest hits of bullshit skincare products.

The patches have “microneedles” that dig into your flesh and then dissolve, ostensibly taking excess sebum with them. The patches also have NFC chips, so they can communicate with the main device and your phone to “customize” your face needle experience. And the main device, besides possessing a NFC chip reader and a camera for sweet Lumini like face scans, also has a disco show of LEDs inside that are supposed to magically cure your skin of all its ailments. Light therapy for skin conditions it a very real scientific phenomenon, but the lights used tend to use spectra of lights less visible to the human eye.

Apart from some breathless anecdotes from beauty magazines, multicolored LEDs have no real proven ability to improve your skin. Which makes sense, because if they could then Philips could just stop marketing its Hue smart LEDs for the house and start selling them for your face.

Samsung will be showing off both the Lumini and S-Skin at CES in January, maybe even in Samsung’s booth instead of in the hall full of future Kickstarter failures where these things sound like they belong. Both devices come from Samsung’s internal incubator program, C-Labs. Previous devices out of C-Labs were launched not through Samsung, but via Kickstarter. While that’s usually a recipe for late shipping dates and crappy devices, maybe the Samsung prestige will rub off on this potential junkware.

But don’t get too excited about the tech coming to America and making your skin glow radiantly. While the ladies in the videos are English-speaking white women, all the sweet skin-related apps on their phones are in Korean. Better brush up on your hangul if you want to take advantage.

On Wednesday the 39-year-old rapper took in a showing of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.

And on Monday the singer, who suffered a mental breakdown in November, was at the theaters again, this time the Arclight Cinema in Hollywood. This comes the day after wife Kim Kardashian stunned in a low-cut gold prom dresses uk at mom Kris Jenner’s Christmas Eve bash in Hidden Hills.

While it is not known what the Paranoid singer went to see, the ArcLight is showing Rogue One, Sing, Passengers, Assassin’s Creed, Fences, La La Land, Hidden Figures, Patriots Day, A Monster Calls, Silence and Live By Night.

The Life Of Pablo artist wore a white hoodie with camouflage cargo pants. He laced up a pair of brown leather combat boots over the hem of the pants.

To hide from the Los Angeles chill, Kanye threw on a Yeezy Season 3 hooded shearling coat ($1,260).

His hair was dyed a bright, shocking yellow and seemed to have tones of pink in it as well.

The vibrant hairstyle clashed with the pouty expression West wore as he left the early morning movie.

The day before, he and the mother of his two children were spotted looking tense as they left sister Kourtney Kardashian’s house on Christmas day.

Rumors of a split between Kanye and Kim began circulating in November, after the singer’s public mental breakdown.

Kim recently had a spokesperson dispel the rumor that she and her husband of two years were heading towards divorce.

It was also reported that Kanye went to catch a flick instead of attending Kris Jenner’s annual Christmas Eve bash on Saturday.

Broadway actor Aaron Lazar took a quick snap with the lyricist, who appeared to have caught a movie before the event.

Though he wasn’t pictured at the party, Kim’s spokesperson insisted Kanye had indeed attended.

‘Kanye was at the party,’ said the source.

Have you ever harbored a secret struggle so deeply and so quietly that your friends had no idea you were even in pain?

Clothing designer and author Ermelinda Manos recently unveiled her coffee-table book, “Lost in Las Vegas,” at the Metropolitan Gallery Art Museum downtown. With sumptuous photography by Anthony Mair and a team of artists she calls friends, Manos showcases her mother’s vintage jewels and her gorgeous fashion designs while sharing history and fun stories about her hometown.

But this shining work isn’t all glitz and glamour: It reflects her constant struggle with immigration to the United States.

“I did this mainly to share encouragement, and to share that with dedication and patience, you can make anything happen,” Manos said at her Dec. 7 fashion show and book party. Through tears, she added: “This is not just a fashion show. I’m sharing my private story that I actually kept somewhat of a secret for so many years … about my battle with immigration since Day One when I came into this country.” She said she dedicated her book to young immigrants who, like herself, aren’t yet citizens.

Born in southern Albania and raised in Greece, Manos moved to Las Vegas at age 12. She studied fine arts and fashion design as well as philosophy, and launched her women’s eveningwear line Ermelinda Manos Designs at L.A. Fashion Week (and in 2009 was named the most anticipated new designer). Honing her skills in the fashion industry, she worked as a prom dress shops to fashion stylists on shows for everybody in the business, including Macy’s and Nordstrom’s, Giorgio Armani and Chanel.

Manos founded EM Creative Group to help facilitate manufacturing in Southern Nevada and provide styling, textiles, design and publication resources. It was natural that she self-publish “Lost in Las Vegas” — part fashion diary, part art piece and part Las Vegas history book.

“The purpose of my book was to document my designs throughout the years and capture them through my hometown,” she said. “We have so much culture and beauty in Las Vegas, and I just wanted to touch on that. … I also wanted to write this book for anybody dealing with loss in their lives, feeling down, discouraged or up against an obstacle.”

Your work includes fashion design and textiles. When did the idea for a fashion book come along?

I wanted to create something with my designs — in the city that I grew up in, that’s my home — to raise awareness, and to leave something behind whether I stay in Las Vegas or I have to depart. I’m in the DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) program; it’s a bill for young immigrants who were brought here by their parents before the age of 16, to help them with the path to citizenship and exemption from deportation. I fall into that category, and I’m still in the process of resolving my case.

What is the most important message this work has to offer?

Being a young immigrant, I always wondered if there were any other people out there like me going through it. My motive behind the book is to help others who felt like me … so we can all unite. And not just immigrants — anyone who ever feels lost or discouraged. I just wanted to be a connection.

You describe your book as part art gallery, part fashion diary and part Las Vegas history. How did you go about assembling the right team to help you tell this story?

Growing up in this city, we all know each other anyway, so it’s mainly my friends and people who have been with me from day one. The whole team is people who have always worked with me, and always supported me, and supported my vision.

The heroine, modeled by Alicia Hall, is based on your own experiences. Can you give us a peek into what she discovers?

I left the journey of the book open so people can make it their own story, and relatable to themselves. Toward the end … we don’t actually learn if she’s leaving or staying. And the reason I made that was because I feel like my friends and people I know locally always have this urge to leave the city, but some can never make it out … and some always come back.

Which location was your favorite? Which outfit?

All of them actually are my favorite because they all have different history, and I fell in love with each and every part of Las Vegas history. I touch on the parts of Las Vegas that related to me the most, which I thought were cool things to know. My favorite look tonight is on the model from the book, Alicia Hall. She’s a Victoria’s Secret model, so we tried to style her Victoria’s Secret-esque. But really, all the looks are my favorite, because they’re all from different seasons of collections of my designs.
