Now we are midway through summer, it is time to be seduced by one of the most flattering -and risky-colours of the season: yellow. In all its differents tones: pastel yellow, mustard, fluor or Buttercup, it is of the bestselling cromatics of 2016 according to Pantone.
The warmest of all tones is here to invade all types of summer garments and flatter sunkissed skin. From the most functional accesories such as bags and shoes to the most sophisticated of dresses as sought out on the catwalk of Giambattista Valli, Valentino, Dolce & Gabbana, Moschino or Tod’s. Even beauty products have succombed to the appeal of yellow. There is an array of eyeshadows in irridescent colours and nail polish in acid yellows.
You can add a touch of yellow to other colours in the form of accessories such as belts, necklaces or charms on bags. For the daring ones, you can go for swimwear in this colour to flatter your tan or go for a total yellow look on a hot summer night.
In terms of fabrics, aswell as plain fabrics, floral prints are also in and can add a touch of romanticism to an outfit. Also, printed jacquards or fancy fabrics with shiny details such as sequins. This season, yellow teams up with creamy tones to create a soft contrast that still allows it to stand out as one of the most lively and energetic colours of the cromatic palette.
