Colour-bloc party

Intrinsically it is less than common to favour an all out colour surge in your ensemble. Bottle green is as ugly as its name so eliminate that from any relevance to this trend. Lacoste have been all over this look in their recent campaigns for S/S and I think it is, when done correctly, one of the key looks for this season.

Earlier in the year I announced the Pantone colour of the year and designers have been following suit with likewise optimistic hues for their lines. The guidelines for this look are simple. A single block colour all the way through, no prints and minimal to no shade variations. This may sound like a difficult task to fulfil, but with high street stores such as H&M pushing their basics range more than ever, it is almost effortless to put together an eye-popping look.
