Ten Colour Trends for Summer

Trends will take two opposed directions: on one side towards a strong, vibrant palette, that recalls fauvist pictures, on the other towards pastel hues on light and destructured garments, for an ethereal look. All nuances going from lavender to pink will be on trend and will take centre stage on feminine and totally chic ensembles.

Lavender: this colour will dominate the whole summer season. Romantic yet elegant, you can wear it on a masculine suit or a light garment that gets billowy with every step.

Purple: Pantone’s 2018 colour of the year is Ultra Violet. A colour that intrigues with its hybrid, mysterious nature, associated with the seventh chakra, where the human meets the divine. ‘Experiment’ is the word.

Rapture rose: a full, princess-like, intense pink shade.

Sky blue: a fresh color that evoke a serene sky. It’s great on mid or full-length dresses:

Light green: green is back also for summer, this time with a delicate and fresh nuance.

Military green: considered now as a neutral hue, just like beige, it often ‘breaks’ elegant or sporty looks on military style pieces.
