Micro Trends | Yellow
Build a wardrobe of brights with a little help from the colour of now.
Experiment with the vibrant hero colour of the season, from simple accessories to all-out one colour dressing.
If you’ve resolved to step out, be bold and take more risks this decade, the next microtrend is for you. Formerly orbiting around a myth of unsuitability and difficulty in styling, the appeal of yellow is being raised to the front of the season thanks to Spring/Summer 2020 runway collections from designers such as Marc Jacobs and Rejina Pyo. Uncover the wonders of saffron, sunlight, mustard and ochre with our sleek and inspiring edit of street style looks, ahead.
Flash Piece | Make A Statement | One Colour Dressing
Offset everyday, off-duty ensembles with an electric dose of yellow. Simple yet bold, this style tool can be used to both ease you into the trend and to elevate existing outfits. Flashes of bright colour embody bold accessories; statement belts adorn clashing patent outerwear, oversized neon satchel bags subvert feminine silhouettes and textured clutches lend a contemporary mood to neutral palettes.
Make a statement
Vibrant hues enliven signature outerwear pieces in our second style proposal. Commanding attention, bold yellow outerwear evokes vibrancy, playfulness and a new season vision in a host of shades and silhouettes. From pastel trench coats to cropped patchwork jackets and high-shine patent, a marriage of electric colour tones with directional shapes change the rules of this season’s street style looks. Convinced yet?
