Color Trends

Fall fashion colors
Black-Eternally chic, forever classic, black takes center stage this fall in many designer collections, and there will be no lack of choices in black garments for fall and winter. Here are some ways to wear black for fall:
1. head-to-toe black - an easy way for petites to look taller
2. black and white - new ways to wear black and white with a creamy, rather than bright white
3. black with another popular color of the season - try wearing black with blue, green, purple, red, or yellow
4. little black dress - wear it to work with a jacket or sweater; dress it up for evening
To wear black well, you must look good in black. If black doesn't flatter you, don't wear it against your face.

Purple- Purple, once reserved for royalty, takes center stage for fall dressing. It's a rich, strong hue that will look good accessorized with black, green, or yellow. You'll also find purple in dark floral prints this fall.
If a purple dress is too much purple for you, try a purple blouse paired with a black skirt or pants. If that's still too much, you can add a touch of purple to your fall wardrobe with a purple purse.
Blue- The seasons blue colors come in bright blue, clear blue, turquoise blue, and dark blue, so take your pick. Blue is a color all women can wear successfully. Look for the hue that suits your coloring best for a knockout look.
You'll also find blue in cool floral prints for fall and ombre looks in garments and handbags.
Green- Think jewel tone emerald in solids or floral prints this fall. Other options: tone it down with a softer tint of green or blue it with a shade of teal. Find green in checks and plaids, florals, and ombres this season.
Red- If you favor warm tones, look for tomato red this fall. Strong warm colors of orange and yellow will also be available.
A few designers combine red with a black and creamy white combination for fall. Ralph Lauren showed a coat with a black/white/red color combination in a Native American inspired design, and Betsey Johnson designed a dress with a cream background, black stripe, and red print motif on its skirt.
The hue of red you select is key. If you look best in cool colors, try one of the pink reds or a purple red, instead of an orangey red.
If you bought a yellow top for spring, you can also wear it this fall
