Soft Nostalgia plays the most important role with a continuation of pastels that become notably more saturated. Desert Bloom refreshes the notion of neutrals with new base tones and enticing fashion colors that offer a new perspective. Backyard addresses the important brights of the season in fully saturated color, while Seaside offers a vibrant mid-tone assortment with unexpected results. Finally, while jewel tones are not typically associated with Spring, Heirlooms remain relevant with both familiar and newly added hues.

We have compiled this information into a special report for Fashion Vignette members, courtesy of Fashion Snoops – where the full report is available exclusively to subscribers. The full version of the trend report is available now for individual purchase in the Fashion Vignette Trend Shop.

Seaside is presented as a vibrant selection of mid-tones. Bubblegum pink plays an essential role, while newer shades of Coral and Melon are influenced by pink and grapefruit casts. Orchid and Aqua are offered as emerging fashion colors. Custard is lively, yet not overly saturated, shade of yellow. Chartreuse is introduced as a new lime. 

CORAL

Coral is a new pink this season, with salmon undertones.

    HEIRLOOM (JEWEL TONES)    

Jewel tones remain relevant for Spring/Summer with a new offering of Heirlooms. Red and green continue to play the most significant roles, including familiar shades of dark Burgundy and brighter Ruby. Green becomes more influenced by blues with Evergreen and Dark Teal colors. While Navy progresses as an influential base color, Indigo offers a new alternative. Grape purple is featured as a new fashion color. 

BURGUNDY

After much success in recent seasons, burgundy is back for Spring.

INDIGO

Indigo presents a strong option somewhere in between navy and cobalt.

DARK TEAL

Dark Teal offers a new fashion color that adds newness especially to retro looks.

    DESERT BLOOM (NEUTRALS)    

The Desert Bloom color palette combines earthy neutrals along with emerging fashion colors. Base hues of Khaki, Hazy Taupe and Twine are enlivened by richer bases like Dark Roast and Olive. Red casted Rust and orange casted Copper both play influential roles, while Marigold is a yellow with significant orange influence. Persimmon keeps the palette lively et to pink and orange casts.

HAZY TAUPE

Hazy Taupe brings a darker grey casted neutral into the spectrum.

MOONSTONE BLUE

    SOFT NOSTALGIA (PASTELS)    

Soft Nostalgia addresses pastels as one of the most important groups of the season, lead notably by Blue Hydrangea. Chambray offers a greyer, saturated blue alternative. Pink is a focus from saturated mid-tones of Peony to whitened Ice Pink, peach tinted Rose Champagne and purple casted Lilac. Other fashion pastels include more saturated hues of Wisteria purple, Lemon Chiffon and Sea Glass green. Neutral base tones include a fleshy Buff, utility Ecru and Bone. Dust complements Soft Nostalgia as this season’s exclusive grey. 

BLUE HYDRANGEA

Blue Hydrangea is easily the most essential pastel of the season, lending a soft commercial appeal.

LEMON CHIFFON

Lemon Chiffon brings yellow to the pastel range with creamy undertones.

    BACKYARD (BRIGHTS)    

Backyard brights offer a lively conversation anchored by warm and cool hues. Green plays a pivotal role in both Spring Green and a brighter shade of Grass, while Canary offers a brightly saturated yellow. Red progresses forward with Candy Apple as a key color. Another popular commercial option is Electric Blue, while Periwinkle really brings something new to the table. Though orange generally downtrends, Clementine remains.

PANTONE® 18-1438 
Marsala enriches our mind, body and soul, exuding confidence and stability as the color of the year for 2015. 
Marsala is a subtly seductive shade, one that draws us to its embracing warmth.

Marsala was a hit on the Spring 2015 runways with fashion designer     featured in the PANTONE Fashion Color Report Spring 2015; Daniel Silverstain, Hervé Léger by Max Azria and Dennis Basso incorporated the hue into their collections. The impactful, full-bodied qualities of Marsala make for an elegant statement color when the color is used on its own or as a compelling accent when paired with many other colors.

With the ever-growing popularity of floral prints and striping, variations of this hue will undoubtedly carry into men’s and women’s clothing throughout next year. Marsala is also a popular choice for jewelry and fashion accessories, including handbags, hats, footwear and the burgeoning market of wearable technology.

This highly varietal shade combines dramatically with neutrals, including warmer taupes and grays. Because of its burnished undertones, sultry Marsala is highly compatible with amber, umber and golden yellows, greens in both turquoise and teal, and blues in the more vibrant range.

    SAUNTER     

A little bit of dainty elegance, a dash of glamorous appeal, a drop of playful charm – she is a princess in her fairy kingdom. Life is about beauty and kindness she believes. The summer’s splendor is a feast, feeding her senses, with the sweet smell of rose gardens, with the warm touch of the sun on her skin, with the delicate taste of fruity gelato and the gentle piano sounds. The dream-like vibrancy of color in the warm summer days makes her happy and ecstatic.

    PRELUDE    

She likes her life of independence and peace. Her everyday soaked into an immense flow of inspiration and self-exploration. She is natural and somewhat romantic. She likes to prepare things in her own quiet and elegant way. Mornings are her favorite time of the day, no need to hurry, no need to overindulge with extreme everyday interactions. Every word that she says she tastes carefully on the tip of her tongue to make sure she gave it just the right dose of meaning and love. She knows life is string of beginnings and every day is a prelude to something new.

     COBALT SKIES    

She is a true believer that mystical powers are moving and directing us in mysterious ways. She feels that all nature’s creations are sacred. She approaches her everyday endeavors as rituals that need to be performed with great poise and affection. She craves eternal youth and believes that beauty is reflection of the soul. She loves the mountains not as a destination to conquer, but as a place to worship nature and a place to reflect on her inner peace, a place where she can reach for harmony and solitude. She adores the fragile beauty of exotic flowers but she is equally attracted to the dark power of the stormy cobalt skies.

     RESONANCE    

Her life is about balance and exploration. She wants to know about the world and travels not for leisure but to connect with different cultures and people on deeper more spiritual level. She is a multilingual citizen of the world, her mind is bright and colorful. She takes her body on the quest for self-discovery trough yoga and meditation. She is pure by heart and strong by will. She is a gatherer of experiences and fascinating stories which resonate deep into her soul. She is a creator and storyteller of the new urban folklore.

From our most recent FV contributor addition, Gudy Herder of Eclectic Trends who is based in Barcelona working as an Interior Stylist, Trend Observer and Trainer.  Her website Eclectic Trends is full of interior and trend inspirations,   http://eclectictrends.com.  

Dear Fashion Vignette readers! This is Gudy from Eclectic Trends and I am back today with another trend I presented at Global Color Research which I named SCANNED! You can view the entire report here. 

I hope you enjoyed my last AW 2016/17 trend post WONDERLAND ( here ), which had been the favorite among my readers. I’d love to hear your opinion too.

Here comes the second part of my trend presentation for Global Color Research I have shared as well at the Blogger Brunch the past weekend. This was another winner (to my surprise) together with WONDERLAND. I believe the colors influence a lot here too since they are soft and gentle, and we have seen seem them mainly on the Scandinavian markets for a while now.

We are more and more scanned in different senses. When we go the airport, be on the internet or make a telephone call with an integrated gps, there are cameras on the street, and we have to face there is a constant integration of technology with the human body.

On the other side, ‘SCANNED’ has beauty, there is a wonderful x-ray photography underlining transparency and fragility which is not new but has been there for a few years already. By exposing an object to x-rays one discovers new and sometimes surprising structures and hidden beauty.

It is a movement that invites to discover and explore in a different way, like looking underneath the surface and being marveled by its treasures.
