Classic Blue
Every Designer had something blue in their wardrobe and on the runway for spring 2020. From Ferragamo to Balmain a sea of blue could be seen on the catwalks. This universal medium blue is the color of the season and was selected as Pantone’s color of the year. The name classic blue is a little bit misleading. The blues shown this season were anything but classic. The bold vibrant hues remind me of Majorelle Blue however these blue shades are all in the same color family.

Purple
Purple has been electric on the red carpets as well as the runways recently. Ranging from lavenders to lilacs in a variety of cool grape tones there has been a heavy influence on fashion this season in this colorway. The purple trend is a carryover from fall but the lighter and softer versions are currently shining in the spotlight. Since purple has become so popular we could look forward and see it return in the fall with deeper darker contrasts.

While coral falls within the orange family it’s so hot this season that it deserves its own place as a separate color. This interesting hue is a warm-toned blend of pink and orange. It can come in various values depending on how much pigment is added. We are seeing it this season most often lean towards a softer pale shade. Lovers of pink will appreciate the feminine reiteration of last year’s color of the year. Coral is also found to have a broad appeal since it looks good on nearly all skin complexions.
