The It Fall Clothing Colors of the Season
Fall is typically when we retire our colorful summer tops and dresses and trade them out for more muted shades like tawny brown, pumpkin, and khaki. This season, though, it’s all about bold hues. Red was the standout color on the runways, and we’ve already been seeing a lot of it paired with pieces of the season like cool vinyl skirts, shiny ankle boots, and bustier-style tops. But with the arrival of fashion month, we’ve also been noticing other colors pop on the street style scene.
Vibrant yellow is an unexpected shade for fall, but take a styling tip from fashion girl Camille Charrière and pair an oversize marigold sweater with a miniskirt for a cool transitional look. Or try fuchsia pink, another huge color this season. Our suggestion for a fashion-forward way to wear it? In a head-to-toe pantsuit paired with sneakers.
