WINTER TO SPRING: Color Blocking Brights

Color blocking has long since been a girl’s best friend—with a little savvy styling you can harness the power of the well placed darker hue and reap the rewards of a brighter blocked segment of a garment showing off your best bits.

This winter designers such as Missoni and Bottega Veneta took a dip in the color block tank with anything from clashing brights to pretty pastels being harnessed in their pieces. Fast forward to spring and we will see offerings from Gucci, Celine and Christian Dior using the same techniques but amping up the wow factor with the brightest of bolds.

How To Wear It: 

To keep your wardrobe current, and even ahead of the game, simply ensure any color block item you buy has a mix of classic neutrals and bright hues so that you can carry the look seamlessly through to spring. —SARA DELANEY
