The Five Summer Colour Trends of 2022

Summer Colour Dresses

As we proceed to evolve our wardrobes into summer, many of us are craving bold, statement hues over muted, more neutral designs. Whether it’s a subtle foray, such as adding a colour pop piece to a plainer ensemble, a print design to add personality to your favourite outfit, or an all-out moment, created by a head-to-toe tonal look, there’s nothing quite like colour to create an impact during the warmer season.

Leading this are five hues in particular that are dominating this year’s trends – many of which have timeless appeal and are bound to make a return in future seasons. From romantic shades of pink – the bolder the better – to premium, luxe whites, discover the five colours to add to your wardrobe this summer.

Pink

When it comes to wearing pink this season – the bolder the better. Reserve the pared back pastel tones of pink for the rest of the year, high summer calls for hues of fuschia and magenta to make an impact. A strong option for occasion dressing in particular, a feather trimmed piece provides modern decadence and a fun dose of drama. For something more classic, look to a traditional midi dress for a range of events, be it meeting friends for a luncheon or a garden party.

Blue

Karen Millen embroidered woven mini dress

The beauty of blue is its versatility. Even in summer navy or petrol blue allows a level of sophistication, perfect for evening, or a nod to the nautical in a striped design. Blue also makes an impact as part of a print or pattern, allowing the fluidity of its shade to evoke emotions. An appropriate addition to workwear or more casual situations, it’s the perfect option for those who are more reticent to experiment with the world of colour.

Green

Karen Millen Green Sleeveless Asymmetric Midi Dress

The colour green has been defined as a representation of the joy of spring, so it only feels natural to implement it in both spring and summer’s outfitting trends. A colour to be showcased with confidence and elevated style, green is perhaps the most varied colour of all. A rich, bright green adds an element of regal elegance, whilst a neon iteration provides a contemporary update. With bright green undoubtedly this season’s must-have shade, it’s the ultimate choice for the modern woman in search of something different.

Red

Karen Millen Red Satin Suit

One for the bold, red has relevance year-round – however bright red has an individual summery effect, especially when paired with extra details such as coral lipstick. A particular style moment this season is a coloured suit, so why not start with a red one? If your preference is something a little more feminine, a red dress is a powerful choice for evening outfits, whether in one bold hue or a more subtle shade.
