“Expect a mix of vibrant, bold shades alongside softer, more organic tones. Bright, saturated hues like fiery reds and loud hues of orange have been making a statement, while classic colours we see cyclically in fashion, such as sandy beiges, olive greens, and creams, are bringing balance. Pastels also have a moment this season, with baby pinks, minty greens, and buttery yellows adding a softer, playful touch to many collections.” L’Officiel.
