S/S 20 Colour Trend - Pink & Orange Combo

A few seasons' back (A/W 18 to be precise) it was all about a red/pink apparel colour combo...well for SS20 it's all about orange and pink! This rich colour combination, with reminders of Indian and Moroccan culture, works so well thanks in part due to the fact the two colours are so close to each other tonally. These opulent colours, which are almost jewel-like in their vibrancy (and in some circumstances leaning towards the neon end of the spectrum), create such a strong aesthetic. On the runway this colour combo was largely styled head-to-toe in full looks - from the accessories, to the eyewear and all the way to the shoes. Whilst this trend spoke volumes when the colours were at their most vibrant, we did also see a softer take on the trend with a handful of designers opting for softer shades of the two colours. In both instances the colour combination worked exceptionally well.
