you can't have missed the infusion of colour this fall. Clean out your closet, relegate dark and dull pieces to base layers, and fall in love with colour.Designers are fascinated with the beauty of the past and the spirit of the present—recreating it with color, fabric and style this fall season. Retro shapes and fabrics have been updated for today's lifestyle.
“This is a season of untypical colors—more reflective of the imagination and ingenuity, which makes for an artful collection of colors and combinations not bound by the usual hues for fall,” said Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute®. "There is a feminine mystique that is reflected throughout the palette, inspired by the increasing need for women everywhere to create an individual imprint."
These colours are easy to live with, and layer well. Try a tunic top over a fitted dress or flared skirt to add a fresh dimension. Textures and prints are seen everywhere and can be a girls best friend (forgiving our less than perfect bits). While dresses are still in vogue, have you tried a coatdress yet? A versatile solution for travelers this fall.
While Pantone is the leader in colour trend forecasting, it is interesting to see what else is available. The jewel tones from csi provide a stronger pallet to choose from, and the teal is popping up everywhere.
