Not everything will flatter everybody...sweater sets would look terrible on me (skinny frame, large chests, flabby stomach) but suits would look good.
All dressed are also hard with my shape, but the floral dresses last season were particularly bad.

I have narrow shoulders and a small bust, suits were unflattering to me the first time around, and that won't have changed esp since I've gained weight around my middle. 
As I already said, I think the price tag will make people very unhappy when suits are back in. They will be stuck shopping in department stores or frum stores, we've been pretty spoiled being able to scour the internet for cheap stretchy tops and dresses that still look like decent quality.

I love bangs on wigs and high ponies for girls. The current low pony, center part looks way too matronly on most girls. High ponies are fun and girly!
I want the color navy to come back in.
Although I didn't love the look, wearing shells under tank tops or short-sleeved tops was pretty convenient.

How about suits optional?

I think the increased % of online vs in-store clothing purchasing will make suits an unlikely candidate for a fashion comeback. The fit is critical for a suit and that's too tricky to get right via an online purchase. Unless 3D body-scanning software is widey adopted, I think suits are unlikely to be widely popular.

You can wear a tailored blazer or other structured top without it being part of a suit.
Suits were evil. May they burn in the bowels of hades along with the 80s floppy silk ties.

Yes to the high ponies for girls. I hate the middle part, low pony look. It’s so severe and is very ugly imho

Sheitels that are layered with bangs.
They were so low maintenance!

This is a practical solution (and it works well for Zoom/remote meetings).

Today's fashion, as far as I can tell. I don't get it.

Those are in fashion now? Where? I don't think I have seen one of those since the 1980s.

I loved suits!! They went so well with my figure! I had a gorgeous suit for each one of my sheva brochos! Also had two piece same color cardigan sets - forgot what they were called. And sweater sets - I had an Italian one that was very expensive that I kept for years after it went out of style, I wore top and skirt separately and hoped for its return but eventually got rid of it 😥

Learn how to sew or at least design and take an old look and make it modern. Old styles always come back, but with a modern flare.
