SS09: Summer Brights

by Stefanie Grace on August 21, 2009

Given that here in the Amazona office, we can’t stop dreaming about lying on a Caribbean beach somewhere!, we’re not giving up on our favourite season just yet, so you’ll have to wait a couple of weeks for Autumn/Winter trends! Summer is all about bright, sunny colours, even if the weather doesn’t match. If you are going on holiday this month, make sure that you pack some tropical colours to be bang on trend this season. From blocks to prints, there’s a lot in stores at the moment, so even if you’re not jetting off somewhere hot, treat yourself anyway and bring a touch of the exotic into your office. Here’s the lowdown on this season’s hottest colours:

Pink
Bright pinks such as fuchsia are perfect for a little pick-me-up. It’s feminine but also powerful. See Matthew Williamson and Versace for their take on the trend.

Orange
Orange is another FABULOUS colour for Spring/Summer 2009. Designers have gone all out this summer making light, bright clothes to brighten up your day in this economic climate. Here are just some of the offerings guaranteed to put a smile on your face whatever the occasion.

Yellow
Yellow was all over the catwalks this season and it’s naturally the perfect colour for summer. Check out these runway shots for inspiration to bring a little sunshine into your life.

Blue
Bright blues are vibrant, exciting and reminiscent of the ocean and tropical paradise. Check out Aquascutum’s coat collection for a few ideas.
