Experts say brown is going to have a moment in 2017. Yet before we go into that we explore the current color trend which focuses on grey.

MiuMiu, Prada, Louis Vuitton and Versus all had the same kind of seventies suits in their fall collections. Suits with bright graphic prints that are now all over the place.

Wintertrend 2011 for him: eye-popping color

The two most common colors used in the winter collections are presumably black and grey. When it’s cold and the days are getting shorter, people tend to wear lots of dark colors.

But for this winter the designers seemed to want something else, more bright and shiny. Like we’ve seen at Acne, Burberry, Raf Simons, Yves Saint Laurent, Jil Sander, Calvin Klein and Kenzo. They used different lustrous colors to pep up their collections. The most simple basics appeared in different shades of red, orange, yellow, blue and purple. Most of them being used as a playful detail in an overall dark and gloomy ensemble, which is a perfect way to spice up your outfit. Just take a look at these cheerful looks for some inspiration…

Especially on a sunny day those neon shades make a great fashion statement.
