Shades of blue
Colours like aqua, cerulean and cobalt blue are the favourites in the coming season. These eye-catching hues make you look irresistible, especially when paired with neutrals like beige and taupe.
Hot pink
You can continue having your love hate relationship with hot pink as it is still very much around. Combined with anything, it isn’t a bad prospect after all. We have a long cold winter ahead, so anything 'hot' will be very much welcome.
Shades of yellow
From stick-of-butter to golden poppy, yellow made a confident appearance on Fall-Winter 22/23 runways. This autumn's trend points towards brighter yellow, so don't store away your summer outfits just yet.
Pastels
Pastels are more frequent in spring collections, but this year’s fashion follows no rules. Tender hues look amazing when combined with the brighter players of the season. Pastel neutrals can be matched with cobalt blue, while pastel pink is a natural partner for hot pink.
Shimmer in any colour
Shimmering, shining and showing some skin are the key trends of the season. Think crystal netting, sheer sequins, and various embellishments. Don’t discount the bling as something you can only wear on holidays. Pair it with office wear such as blazers to give your everyday style a bit of a fashionable sparkle.
