Spring is always about color, and this Spring really takes that to heart. With many silhouettes subtly evolving from Fall, as
we talked about a couple of weeks ago, color is even more front and center than usual. Rich hues really make things look fresh and new, and there is a large array to choose from. Whether you like bold, soft, or neutral, you won’t be disappointed.
ROYGBIV Rainbow. Spring’s color story is all about the rainbow. Really. The full rainbow palette can be found on everything from t-shirts to ties. Individually, each of the saturated, rich hues make a Spring statement that is modern, yet grounded in the most timeless of colors from red to orange to yellow…well, you get the idea.
Cotton Candy. Like a beautiful array of cotton candy, or that Baskin-Robbins rainbow sherbet you loved as a kid, soft - yet vibrant - pastels of the season may also conjure up memories of some of your favorite childhood outfits. But don't worry gents, there are many wonderfully grown up and modern ways to wear them. (Fun fact: The "Baskin" in "Baskin-Robbins" is the same family as the Baskins, who founded and still own Mark Shale.)
Unbiased Neutrals. Neutrals are both soft and bold. Black, navy, and white create sharp contrasts whether you choose to wear them together or with any of the colors noted above. Soft tans and greys look sophisticated on their own, and olives highlight the military trend that continues.
