New York Fashion Week color trends for fall 2020

Cho Cheng fall/winter 2020/21 New York Fashion Week

Pantone has released the top ten colors, and top four neutral hues, for the fall/winter 2020/21 season straight from the runways of New York! They are vivid, happy, and uplifting. Three cheers for a bright fall season!

The fall/winter 2020/21 season is returning to simplicity. As trends move towards a more sustainable fashion industry, and consumers look to a more minimalist lifestyle, the color trends for the fall season have moved towards simple, common hues which you could easily find in the least expensive crayon box.

While brighter hues may not instantly scream “minimal” to you, they are being simplistic through their uncomplicated pigmentation, and easy-to-identify shades. This is a clean, and easy, color palette to incorporate into any wardrobe. You may even find you already own many of these colors! Love that!

While not listed as a top ten color, fuschia and bright pink were also spotted frequently on the runways for the fall/winter 2020/21 season at New York Fashion Week. Designers such as Cho Cheng, Ulla Johnson, and Self-Portrait, showed this happy and bright hue in their collections.

Without further ado, here are a few examples of the top colors on the runways of New York! I included the bright pink, because I kind-of love it!!

What do you think of the new fall 2020 color palette from New York Fashion Week? Do you have a favorite hue? Mine, of course, is blue!

Thanks for stopping by!

Rebecca Minkoff Spring 2020 NYFW

New York Fashion Week is in full swing, and you might be wondering why I am not covering the shows on my Instagram account like I usually do. Well, this season I have to watch the shows from home. It was with great sadness that I had to decline my invitations to shows I normally attend every season. Rebecca Minkoff was no different.

Rebecca Minkoff is one of my favorite all-time designers. I own so many of her handbags, shoes, and articles of clothing. Her collections are always urban, chic, fashion-forward, on trend, fresh, and easy to incorporate into any wardrobe. Her collections always hit all the buttons! Plus, I find her quality to be well above her price point, making any purchase more than worthwhile. Plus, anything with her name on it has excellent resale value. So, if I stop wearing something and want to consign it, I will get a good return on my investment. Love that!

For the February 2020 New York Fashion Week season, Rebecca Minkoff stuck with her see-now, buy-now, presentation format which has been working really well for her, as well as so many other New York designers. As fashion week evolves, and it’s purpose changes with the onset of social media, changing ways people absorb media, and the desire to shop the runway right away by consumers, this format is proving to be both lucrative, and ideal for consumers. Love!

The spring 2020 season is offering us vivid colors. We are seeing shades of blue, bright and pale pink, as well as a fiery color palette which includes reds, oranges, and yellows. It is an uplifting color season, and Rebecca Minkoff chose the ideal colors for a happier mood this warm weather season.

In addition to brighter hues, spring 2020 is bringing us small floral patterns, and a little bit of motorcycle chic in the form of studs, moto jackets, and chunky soles on soles.

Spring 2020 is also offering us some vintage vibes from both the 1980’s and the 1990’s. We are seeing exaggerated sleeves, power suiting, and chicer versions of grunge items; minus the flannel and destroyed fabrics.

Rebecca Minkoff’s collection for spring 2020 at NYFW hits all these buttons! You cannot go wrong with anything from her spring 2020. Of course, you know I have to fill you in on her fabulous handbag collection!

I’m really excited about the spring 2020 trends in handbags. I love the vintage feel of the baguette silhouette, square mini-bags, and also the natural look of woven and raffia bags. In addition, buckets are getting a makeover in new silhouettes and fabrications. Of course, Rebecca Minkoff is always on point when it comes to handbags! All her bags hit one or more of the trends. Look for fun colors, metallics, natural fabrications, and new silhouettes. I have my eye on her red baguette for spring. It might get added to my collection!
