Alongside strong color trends for the spring/summer 2019 season, such as energizing coral or other juicy shades, earth palette colors remain with us. Rust, muted green, delicate turquoise and warm yellows are not only present in interiors, but also in spring-summer wardrobe.
They are best suited on natural, organic materials, which remain irreplaceable in the summer. Earth colors and natural fabrics are two trends worth knowing more about.
Natural Fabrics, the Trend for 2019
Knitwear is a material that works wonderfully during hot and sunny days. It is breathable, gentle, does not irritate the skin and guarantees excellent ventilation. Natural fabrics also have another very important advantage: they are more eco-friendly than their artificial substitutes. Natural, organic flax or organic cotton are increasingly popular among fashion creators and consumers.
Designers pay more and more attention to ensure that their clothes fit not only into color and style trends, but also promote a responsible way of dressing. Earth colors perfectly match natural materials and despite appearances, they also work well beyond the autumn season in fashion. How to wear them?
Spring Dresses in Shades of Khaki
Shades of khaki, i.e. a palette referring to muted military shades of green, beige and brown, are one of the best colors for people of delicate beauty. It does not overwhelm, it is light and works perfectly on shirts, parkas, dresses, or pants. It complements beautifully with golden tan and warm skin tone. Rust, reds and muted oranges also highlight both light and darker complexions. You can pair them with a white shirt, and in the summer with white pants, which add freshness and elegance to any outfit.
Spring dresses in earth colors are primarily those in muted, subdued shades of green, red, brown, corn yellow and orange. Contrary to appearances, these colors can also add a lot of energy, and unlike sharp, contrasting colors, they are not so demanding. Dresses in these colors for spring are perfect for everyday work outfits, shopping with a friend, or lunch with acquaintances.
Spring shirt dresses with long sleeves in this palette look just as good as sleeveless summer shirtdresses with buttons all the way down and a tied belt. Deep olive green also works well on slightly more festive creations, as in the proposal from Balmain, which is intended for special occasions.
Spring Dresses in Two Shades
Pants, shirts and spring dresses in earth colors besides white and within their own palette also look great with jeans. It is best to pair them with dark or classic denim. Depending on what you pair them with, you can wear them to work or for the most formal occasion. The best example is a rust-colored dress from Rick Owens, which with jeans creates a casual outfit, and with gold accessories gains a more festive character. This is the best proof that earth colors have great potential in every situation!
