SPRING-SUMMER 2011 COLOUR TRENDS PT. 5: GREY


Fashion Bank



In the last part of my series about colour trends I wrote about khaki which was an continuation of one autumn/winter 2010 colour trend. Today I will say a few words about another colour that was very popular in autumn/winter 2010 and is visible in many collections for spring/summer 2011: grey.

When comparing current spring/summer grey to the one from the last autumn/winter season used shades of grey are practically the same: from dove grey with sky blue through classic grey to steel grey. The fabrics is what made the difference – instead of warm fabrics now can see light cottons and linen.
For few seasons grey are becoming a very important colour in men collections. In my opinion it is a great option to build a foundation of your wardrobe. By that I mean clothes that will be timeless and can be easily mixed with a variety of colours. My personal favourites to mix with grey this season are: white, sky blue, light pink, light violet and yellow. In case of grey the possibilities are practically endless.
