When it comes to keeping up with the latest fashion trends, the season’s colours are the easiest to follow. This season, the trending palette is a perfect mix of rich, earthy tones and unexpected pops of brightness. Whether you’re a fan of classic tones like burgundy and brown or ready to experiment with bright pink and yellow, there’s a shade to suit every mood and occasion. Here’s a breakdown of the top colour trends to wear this season…
Khaki
A long way from the brat green that dominated this summer, khaki is once again back for the fall-winter 2024 season. From Gucci and Saint Laurent to Burberry and Philosophy Di Lorenzo Serafini, this beautifully timeless shade appeared in the form of sheer lace dresses, longline coats, and maxi skirts. Whilst often associated with utility fashion, this earthy green-beige shade transitions effortlessly from day to night, making it an ideal base colour for layered winter looks.
Burgundy
As with khaki, burgundy is less a winter trend and more a timeless staple. Yet, undoubtedly this season, the wine-infused hue has reigned supreme as the IT colour to wear. It is romantic, moody, subtle, warm – absolutely everything you want in a colour at this time of year. Whether you wear it head-to-toe like the stylings at Khaite or add it to your ensemble as a delicate accent à la Moschino, make burgundy your go-to shade.
Pink
Unexpected for this time of year, but welcomed all the same is pink. The Chloé runway in particular was adorned with a soft, muted shade of pink, as was Chanel, Prada, Michael Kors, and Coperni. Pink is perfect for adding vibrancy to your wardrobe this winter. Bold, fuchsia pink knits or coats in particular can make a real statement. Though, if you’re aiming for subtlety channel the runways and opt for softer shades that are great for layering under heavier outerwear.
Yellow
Another colour often reserved for spring and summer, but is set to be huge this winter is yellow. Victoria Beckham, Jacquemus, and Bottega Veneta all showcased soft buttery shades, whilst Blumarine, Prada, and Sacai chose sunshine yellow across skirts, coats, knits, and dresses.
Blue
Whether it’s powder blue, turquoise, navy, or cerulean there is an ocean of blue fashion waiting for you to dive in. Blue offers a cooling juxtaposition to the warmer shades more commonly associated with the season. It is also incredibly versatile and works for both casual and formal occasions. From the runway, standout blue pieces including Bottega Veneta’s cocoon coat and the stunning sculptural mini dress by Alaïa.
Brown
Brown is another quintessential autumn/winter shade, reflecting the changing colours of nature. From chocolate to caramel, this colour offers a grounding, sophisticated feel that’s perfect for layering and accessorizing. From chocolate-coloured leather jackets to ’70s-inspired suede in a soft latte, brown will be everywhere this season.
