Different colours become trends every year, setting a starting point for both society and fashion. Generally, the choice of colours doesn’t ‘just happen’: there is a social, economic and cultural background behind it. Elements such as Pantone, the catwalks and the street style in big, stylish cities all set the tone for the trends and colours that will be worn throughout the year.
After what’s been a complicated period worldwide, colours for this season are getting brighter and filling our wardrobes and our lives with optimism. Although classic tones such as khaki or camel will continue to be in vogue, more vivid and light colours such as yellow, lilac or metallic shades will sneak into our outfits. Let’s see how to wear them and which ones will suit you best.
The sweetness of lilac will take over the streets
Lilac is, without a doubt, one of the big stars of the season. Although we may associate pastel colours with Summer, lilac can still be with you when it’s cold outside. This tone conveys femininity and will add a touch of sweetness to all your outfits.
Will lilac suit me?
Lilac is particularly suited to women identified by colourimetry as Spring and Summer, as it lightens up their face!
How to wear lilac this Autumn
Pair lilac with other wardrobe staples such as mom fit jeans, beige loafers and an off-white cardigan to let your lilac top take centre stage.
Camel, a colour that never goes out of fashion
Pair lilac with other wardrobe staples such as mom fit jeans, beige loafers and an off-white cardigan to let your lilac top take centre stage.
Will camel suit me?
Neutral colours suit most people. In particular, women identified by colourimetry as Spring, or people with golden or beige skin, brown or hazel eyes and dark brown, hazel or reddish hair will look amazing wearing this colour.
How to wear camel this Autumn
This season, dare to wear camel in a total look. However, if you think it’s too much, from Lookiero we suggest a less risky but equally flattering way to bring camel into your wardrobe: wearing an oversize blazer with white jeans, a deep green jumper and black chelsea boots.
Yellow will continue to brighten up our lives
Will yellow suit me?
Bright yellow is very flattering for women identified by colourimetry as Winter. However, depending on the intensity of the colour, it can also be suitable for other colourings. If you feel identified as Autumn by colourimetry, then an ochre or mustard shade will suit you best. If your skin tone is rather cool, you can choose a pastel or bright shade of yellow, as it will bring luminosity to your face.
How to wear yellow this Autumn
This season, we encourage you to wear yellow with more neutral and darker tones such as navy blue to balance its intensity. We love a denim shirt worn with a pair of blue geometric print trousers and a yellow coat. Finish the look with a camel shopper bag and trainers or ankle boots in the same colour as your bag. A comfortable, colourful combination that will brighten up the greyest Autumn days.
Green brings nature back to our outfits
This Autumn-Winter, green will be worn in less bright shades. Khaki will be found in all manner of garments and emerald tones will be seen in small doses and in a more discreet way.
Will green suit meat?
For women identified as Autumn by colourimetry, with warm and intense colouring, green will bring luminosity to both skin and eyes.
How to wear green this Autumn
This season, wear bright green shades with other Autumnal colours. Get a lime jumper and wear it with khaki paper bag trousers, trainers and a leather or pleather bag. If you can, make sure to choose a chunky knit to create a look full of contrasts in terms of both colour and texture.
Metallics sneak into our day-to-day
Metallics in silver finishes will be seen everywhere on the street. Now, you can not only wear them for a night out, but incorporate them into daytime looks in small doses.
Will metallic shades suit me?
Metallic shades suit cooler skin tones, especially those women identified by colourimetry as Winter. Metallics bring a glow to their face and help to conceal redness and dark under-eye circles. A great look for the Winter season!
How to wear metallic shades this Autumn?
Follow our Personal Shoppers’ suggestions: combine metallic garments and embellishments with plain, staple colours such as black. Choose a metallic dress, a black biker jacket and a pair of kitten heels for a casual evening look, or swap your shoes for trainers for a more casual daytime outfit.
