This summer Fashion, bold, joyful colors are replacing muted, luxury-inspired neutrals as the hottest color trends in fashion. Seasonal color schemes have always played a part in setting the tone for fashion shows, but this year has seen an explosion of bright, humorous color trends, from butter yellow to futuristic silver to the ongoing dominance of cherry red. There are many statement shades available this season, so you can choose from them depending on whether you’re enjoying a wild party girl summer Fashion or romantic holiday vibes in Europe. Continue reading to discover the top seven color trends for summertime fashion, along with product recommendations to help you try them out.
‘Brat’ Green
We are completely enamored with Charli XCX’s sixth studio album as well as the sheer and colorful outfits that Brat has influenced. Although this bright green color has a reputation for being hard to style, all you really need is a well-thought-out approach and an IDGAF mentality to go along with it. Invest in a sophisticated tweed outfit to go monochromatic, or start modestly by wearing a neon tee with your favorite pair of jeans. We’ve heard that the official summer Fashion dress code consists of Brat green and everything else 365-party-girl.
Seafoam Green
Yes, mint green is back, but not in the way you might recall from our pre-Instagram #OOTD (about 2012) days. This season, rhinestone mesh flats and chic jade handbags are leading the way as we embrace the gentler, more mystical aspect of seafoam green. Modern designs eschew chevrons in favor of delicate, exquisite finishes, and the outcome is incredibly minty-fresh.
Butter Yellow
A palette of creamy yellow should never be undervalued. Even though it could be simple to ignore this pastel tint, its surprise sweetness gives your outfit a fashion-forward touch while acting almost like a neutral. Try pairing structural, no-nonsense staples like a soft gray blazer and timeless jeans with one or two accessories in this shade, such as some stylish, square-toed Mary Janes.
Cherry Red
It’s true what they say: Cherry Red is still very much alive. After a year or so, we’re still seeing lots of vibrant red shoes, skirts, shirts, and accessories on our feeds. To update the style this summer Fashion and fall, we suggest experimenting with your styling by selecting a trending pattern like gingham or making red the main color of your ensemble.
Seashell Blue
In summer Fashion, it’s hard to go wrong with a medium-tone blue, and this slightly subdued hue of cornflower blue is perfect for adding vibrant durability (while keeping the excitement of the present) to your wardrobe. Try teaming this subdued hue with bold components like stripes and woven textiles to increase the visual intrigue.
Soft Periwinkle
A fun color can sometimes be all you need to add some excitement to your wardrobe rotation. Periwinkle, which ranges in color from gentle lavender to reddish blue, is really popular right now. Da’Vine Joy Randolph and Olivia Rodrigo are two celebrities who have tried it. Periwinkle can easily be worn every day or saved for special occasions, but we also feel it should be used in unexpected ways (like athleisure or loungewear).
Futuristic Silver
It’s likely that you’ve noticed a lot of pops of silver if you’ve recently used any social networking apps. Whether it’s ballet flats or a maxi skirt, adding the statement metallic to our regular outfits feels innately modern and sophisticated. Consider wearing silver as a neutral—a la leopard print—or combining it with different metallic items.
