Microtrends | She's Beige

Microtrends | Style Approved - Neon

Fashion’s latest obsession is a spectrum of beige and it’s anything but ordinary.

The Insider

Call it what you want - biscuit, café au lait or even contemporary oatmeal, but beige truly whet the appetites of the style elite during this Fashion Week Season. The colour has shaken off its bland reputation and now is the time to be beige. The neutral shade was seen across the SS19 shows - namely Dior, Tom Ford, Fendi, Balmain and Tibi - and it’s proven to have a timeless appeal. Worn wisely, this palette looks modern, sophisticated and expensive. We show you how.

Try uplifting basics and neutrals with a pop of colour. The effect is impactful but not overly loud. We love a classic trench overlaid with a fluorescent belt or grounded with a pair of statement trainers.  

 

Come evening, you could try the classic little black dress with a shining fuchsia clutch bag or futuristic bright plastic jewellery.  

 

Another way to try out the trend without looking overkill is investing in neon separates you can merge with your current line-up. Tick off two trends in one with a fluoro bumbag you can sling over bomber jackets or a sleek overcoat. Give your tailored ensembles a jolt of electricity too. A neon shirt adds a burst of colour layered under a pinstripe blazer or relaxed-fit suit.

Neon Takeover  

Embrace the trend full-throttle in head-to-toe neon. Wallflowers need not apply. Make like a street style star (as seen at the AW19 shows in London, Milan and Paris) and clash your neon accessories. Right now, there’s no such thing as too much neon. Try a canary yellow bag, contrasting a lime green sports top, clashing tangerine trainers. So hip it hurts.  

 

Eveningwear can push the boundaries when it comes to neon too. Think jumpsuits, mini dresses and dancefloor-ready cycling shorts as fresh additions to your night out outfit line-up. The trick is to keep your ensemble looking premium by choosing quality fabrics, whether it’s sleek satin or crisp cotton.  

 

Stock up on need-now neon pieces and set the streets alight.
