Dusky denims

Pastel palette
Romance was in the air as pastels like powder blue, lilac, and lemon hit the London runways for spring, and even accessories tilted towards feminine hues. But with a twist: the ice cream tones were paired with strong structural details and well tailored silhouettes to cut through the sweetness.

NEW ATTITUDE
It’s time to banish the blahs! Beige be gone and neutrals are now a no no for spring. Instead, bright, saturated hues made a splash on the biggest runway shows. From color blocking to drenches of shock monochrome, lines were awash in vibrant and bold colors. Endorphins anyone?
