From Jil Sander, Marni to Christopher Kane, this summer the catwalks were awash with intense, vibrant and dynamic colors and for Boticca.com in London, it’s pretty much the same story with our unique, independent designers feeling the lure of the color pop all over the world.
Now is the time to embrace the full color explosion as eye-watering brights look set to continue trending well into the autumn. Embrace this year's most exciting movement head-on with pinks, yellows, reds and greens; it's all about being seen and having fun.
With orange, yellow and pink as the fashion front-runners, the message really is simple: color is the new black. Color blocking sees the fashion forward mixing and matching their brights for a gloriously clashing look.
Look to women’s clutch bags from the likes of Poupee Couture in tones from pink to green or the ever-popular Royal Wedding Clutch from Steven Harkin to delicately clash with the rest of your evening ensemble.
For those wishing to err on the side of caution, designer scarves from the likes of rising UK design star Lucy Jay are the easy way to be swathed in eye-popping tones. Make a sophisticated work outfit on trend by wrapping one of her fluoro or jewel-toned beauties around the handle of an equally bright bag or the waist.
To avoid looking like you got dressed in the dark, avoid pairing multiple brights with patterned prints – this look is about clashing color blocks and simple, bold accessories!
