Posted inFashion Update Spring and Summer Color Trends 2023 Posted by April 25, 2023No Comments When you think about revamping your look for the warm-weather season, start by picturing the color trends we saw on the spring and summer 2023 Fashion Week runways. Not only are the blooming flowers, longer days, and sunny skies enough to inspire a more vibrant wardrobe, but this season specifically brings with it a bevy of shades that will truly turn heads. Some of the hues of the season center around bright, bold tones like kelly green, classic cobalt, and fiery red. And others speak to a slightly more muted pastel-based palette: think butter yellow, powder blue, and electric lilac. But regardless of where it falls on the color wheel, all these tones signal a cheerful, playful approach to shopping come spring. With the weather slowly beginning to mellow, warm days peppered throughout the otherwise cold season, and vacations on the horizon, draw inspiration from the color choices of the spring runways. Designers like Valentino traded Barbie pink for the fashion house’s iconic bright red hues; Victoria Beckham went for a soft powder blue hue; and designers like Jason Wu and Carolina Herrera opted for a soft butter yellow that can act as a neutral or a pop of color, depending on how you style it. The list goes on. So, on the heels of fall fashion month, it’s time to look back toward the Spring runways for everyday wardrobe inspiration. Ahead, take a deep dive into the delicious tones of the season: fiery red, butter yellow, kelly green, classic cobalt, powder blue, and electric lilac. Spring Colors 2023: Fiery Red Barbie pink is stepping aside for its deeper-toned sister, bringing the power tone of red to the forefront. With Alexander McQueen designing power jumpsuits in the bold hue and Akris opting for flowing dresses in the same, red is more stylish than ever.

The silhouettes are both bold (see: Altuzarra) as well as ladylike (á la Lela Rose). Yet they all offer the same tone that effortlessly acts as both a neutral and a pop of bright color, depending on how you style it.

While Johanna Ortiz and Lela Rose opted for classic Kelly green, Rejina Pyo went for a subtle mint tone and Victoria Beckham added a slightly more acidic hue to the mix.

The pastel color is no doubt softer than deeper, richer tones of purple. Still, there’s an electricity to the lilac hue of Spring 2023, with a vibrancy and deep saturation that still feels powerful.

Though bright and bold, blue hues are a safe toe-dip for those more averse to sunnier hues in their wardrobe.

Deveaux added a bit more saturation to the tone, styling looks with head-to-toe color, while Victoria Beckham offered just the right amount of pigment for a more colorful alternative to springtime whites. No matter what your personal style is, powder blue is a must have this season.
