Fashion Color Trends 2010/2011

I was Reading a few magazines and watching a few runways made me come up with a few Fashion Theories for this Season,there is a diverse range of intricate colors. They all bear a shade of autumn. For the winter, khaki, beige and navy blue made ample exhibits.Most significant trend perhaps is the military print. Khaki naturally leads the pack. The Burberry’s and Etro’s are already singing its praises. Beige is doing well over camel. At Gucci, they are present in nude, deglamorized shades. At Chanel, they come in ivory whites. The same is the case for Calvin Klein. This fall, black has been substituted by grey at large.

Apart from colors, there are a lot many prints too. The ethnic ones and the leopard variations, made big by Anna Sui and Emanuel Ungaro respectively.

Colors trail more colors and if Lacoste is anything to go by, then colors are simply getting bigger. Lacoste plays with both sides of color. Colors  and prints taking over in most fashion esques

Fall 2011 has a fetish towards military prints. While khaki and green are right at top, navy blue emphasizes upon an urge to get rigorous and coarse. The navy blue blazer is adorned by horizontal zippers in golden and is augmented by svelte tights.

Camel is running rings around the market this fall. Right from cappuccino to cream, it’s a showstopper. In case, you do not concede to the idea of wearing camel from top to bottom, you can mix it with denim or other hues of the Fall like mahogany or copper. Chloe has used long camel boats with hazel pants in the most sophisticated and elegant way possible.

Not only the neutral colors, but also the very strong hues like carmine red, dark turquoise and cobalt are doing just the same to the catalogue. Red is the top color this fall. D-Squared has done a great job with red and used it to portray the essential femininity and grace of the female form.

Pantone colors – Pantone suggested turquoise as the color of the fall last year. This year it has chosen a motley dose of colors. Here are a few of them.

Oyster Gray is lighter than the usual grey we have at fall. Its touch is delicate and sweet.

Golden Glow is a classy earthy yellow. It works equally well with woodbine as well as purple orchid.

Lagoon is a turquoise in sparkling green and combines in a classy way with each shade of red.

Rose Dust is sophisticated romance-filled bright beige.

Woodbine is a military green; it mixes beautifully with Chocolate Truffle and Purple Orchid.

Purple Orchid is augmented with fuchsia touches to its purple.

Chocolate Truffle is an esoteric and graceful brown with plum undercurrents. It looks great when matched with Purple Orchid.
