Your Ultimate Guide to SS19 Fashion Trends and Color Palette
By Yasmine Dawood
Spring/Summer 2019 is coming up with all its magic and diversity that shows in every piece. It goes all the way from the shades of beige to mixing up prints and colors in the most creative and exquisite way. Warm colors are taking a big place this spring, which somehow reminds us of the fall colors, but this time the designers are bringing it back with a little twist.
So, let’s give some attention to the color palettes before getting into the fashion trends.
Fiesta
Simone Rocha, Acne studio, and Gucci proved that fiesta can never go wrong no matter what your style is.
Jester Red
Autumnally? maybe. Forever trendy? Indeed.
Turmeric
I think orange might truly be the new black.
Living coral
One of the few colors that fit literally every skin tone.
Pink Peacock
When you bring back your favorite shade of pink with a bold retouch.
Pepper stem
After all, spring is our flower season.
Aspen Gold
Your perfect excuse to unapologetically shine.
Princess blue
Oh, and don’t forget to wear your invisible crown.
Toffee
Never goes out of style.
Mango Mojito
When cheerfulness and deliciousness get combined.
Terrarium Moss
No, it does not have to be under the army theme. Now you can wear it in spring!
Sweet Lilac
Pretty sweet, actually.
With colors now no longer a problem, let’s move on to the SS19 fashion trends.
Shades of beige
In spring 2009’s fashion week, the beige color proved itself to be extremely popular and trendy. Now, in spring 2019’s fashion week, we saw 50 shades of beige including coffee, camel, and cinnamon colored garments. I guess we always get back to nudes no matter how much time has passed, even if it’s literally a decade.
California dreaming
Shark fever alert, everyone! Jaws 2’s poster was a great inspiration for Raf Simons with Calvin Klein. Real surfer girls kicked off the runway with their surfing inspired garments by Etro in Milan. As for Paris, statement gowns were created by the magical Marine Serre using recycled wetsuits.
Change of lace
Some of us have always believed that lace is one of the most feminine of fabrics. However, this spring is different. Victoria Beckham, Christopher Kane, and Erdem showed us how lace can be creatively reworked by dicing and slicing it to turn it to more manly forms.
All the trimmings
Feathers and fringes are the heart and soul of partywear. The Great Gatsby, you may be thinking. Well, what do you think about a little retouch that perfectly fits our SS19 runway? This season Givenchy, Valentino, Richard Quinn, No.21, MSGM, and Loewe pulled up feather trims to a whole new level.
Get into print
Florals were our typical answer when we hear both words; print and spring. But as we said earlier, this spring is different! Our loved designers thought that it’s time to grant some other prints the spotlight this season. Balenciaga, Versace, and Dolce & Gabbana showed us their magic by fearlessly mixing up prints and creating some exquisite pieces.
Fruity suiting
Escada, Balenciaga, Roksanda, Peter Pilotto, and Boss found a way to boost your dressing’s energy even when it comes to suits you wear on a daily basis to work. As for the shoes, you got all the options from white sneakers to the highest heels you’ve got.
Bleach treatment
Bleached denim and strong shoulders, wow! I can already feel the power coming out! Another thing I can feel; the eighties! And both are still trendy and growing stronger than ever. This season, Proenza Schouler, Isabel Marant, Off-White, Celine, and Balmain kicked it off with acid washed denim that totally caught my eyes.
