He who masters color masters fashion! There are techniques for the "color on color" trend [Paris Snap]

Mar 24, 2022
Paris Fashion Week's Fall/Winter 2022-23 season took place from February 28th to March 8th. It marked a complete return for almost all participating brands, with physical shows taking place, and the streets were abuzz with vibrant attendees dressed to the nines. This season's Paris Fashion Week was bathed in soft sunlight and mild autumn weather. Wearing pieces from the Spring/Summer collection currently available in stores, the off-runway was bathed in a vibrant array of colors, like the natural scenery of spring. Vibrant "color-on-color" styling, incorporating pastel color combinations and the mood-boosting benefits of color therapy, was one of this season's trends. Paris Fashion Week attendees stood out with their vibrant colors, expressing the freedom of being able to go out and the joy of dressing up.

When combining colors, it's important to avoid creating an imbalance. By incorporating fluorescent colors in three colors—outerwear, bottoms, and shoes—Alice successfully complements the colors rather than clashing. A baby yellow bag, which blends well with any color, brings the look together.

This season's hottest trend color is lilac, as Veronica is wearing on her outerwear. It pairs well with darker hair tones and is known to suit Japanese people. Veronica's two-tone lilac and orange look creates a youthful yet understated look. Lilac's unique feature is that it can create a completely different impression depending on the colors it's paired with.

If you want to try color-on-color styling, it's best to avoid patterns. Like Lawrence, combining solid-color items is a futuristic look that's perfect for this season. Another great technique to remember is to coordinate the colors of your sunglasses, belt, shoes, and other accessories to create a cohesive look.

If you don't usually incorporate much color into your daily life or are trying "color on color" for the first time, why not start with accessories? Just like Anais, simply adding a vibrant color to a denim look will instantly brighten up your look. Incorporating color into your favorite items, such as gloves, shoes, and bags, is the perfect starting point for "color on color."
