Suit Up.

Starlets gave men’s wear-inspired ensembles a glamorous touch with glitz and a few skin-baring moments.
Angelina Jolie rocked a chicly dishevelled Saint Laurent tuxedo number at the 67th British Academy Film Awards and at the same event, Ruth Wilson toned down the shine by wearing a metallic Antonio Berardi suit over a sartorial white oxford. Cara Delevingne made a sporty blue Mulberry suit look sexy at the Mulberry dinner to celebrate the launch of the Cara Delevingne collection during London Fashion Week. Daisy Lowe, at the Elle Style Awards, managed to button up while still showing some skin in a Saint Laurent creation while Scarlett Johansson called on Michael Kors for the red suit she wore to the Captain America: The Winter Soldier premiere.

Paris Fashion Week: Fall 2014 – 2015 Color Trends.

Parisian runways were full to bursting with vibrant and purposefully jarring colour ways like at Christian Dior, Miu Miu and Carven. Tone on tone silhouettes flush with the power of plain were linear and loose at Haider Ackermann, Viktor +Rolf’s Fall/Winter 2014 show was a study in shades of grey and at Rochas; the palette was a mingling of muted pastels woken up by jolts of colour courtesy of ruched leather gloves. On that note, these are some of the color trends from Paris Fall/Winter 2014 – 2015 runways.

Pre-Fall 2014-15 Colour Trends.

After Spring’s playful romp in poppy colours, many designers got serious for pre-fall by darkening their colour palettes. Fall’s rich dark tones of burgundy, purple, fuschia, emerald green and navy were quite popular amidst the sprinkling of gold and orange while the reds got deeper in some pre-fall presentations.

Be Bold With Cobalt Blue.

Everyone knows that purple and Burgundy have been big business this season, but what should you do if you want something a little bolder? Step forward cobalt blue, which is one of the hottest –but most overlooked shades –to wear during fall/winter 12.
Balenciaga, Lanvin, Richard Nicoll and Preen all used this hue in many different ways. Chiffon skirts, military jackets, beautiful body conscious dresses were all carved from this bright color and it looks set to be popular for the coming summer/spring 13 season.

Granted it isn’t the look of choice for shrinking violets and the super bright shades might be a little unflattering, but the trick here is to experiment.
They might seem scary, but if you have a dark complexion bold cobalt will look beautiful. Those who are fairer might look swamped if they go too bright, so try toning things down with a blue coat you can wear with darker colours. Or if you must go bright try a pop – perhaps a bright clutch or scarf to kick things off.
