A/W 20/21 COLOR INSPIRATION
LETTER FROM THE EDITOR Women’s fashion is ever-evolving, but in recent years it has gone from minimalism to maximalism and back again, and although the silhouettes this Autumn/Winter 20/21 will be more minimalist inspired, the colors will be what really stands out. Bold saturated colors mixed with pastels will be the trend of the season as tonal dressing continues to grow in popularity. This report will cover the trending colors of the season in pastels, neutrals, jewels, and brights and the inspiration behind them. This season’s colors were heavily inspired by nature, architecture and time. Pale Polis, the pastel color story, was influenced by buildings in Finland, Hong Kong, LA, and other small details from cities all over the world. Arid Oasis, the neutral color story, was prompted by deserts, badlands, and other arid climates, and the sparse greenery that thrives in them. Gar net Grove, the jewel toned color story, was inspired by nature, but specifically forests and flowers and the changing colors of autumn and when day tur ns to dusk. The final color story, Neon Nights, features bright colors animated by, quite literally, neon lights that would be most prevalent at night. Allegra St. Clair Editor-in-Chief

ARID OASIS This neutral story focuses on tones that deserts, badlands, and salt flats are made of. The hint of green comes from the sparse plants that are able to survive in the dry and arid lands. This season’s neutrals are heavily focused on browns, because of the ever-growing awareness of climate change has forced us to notice and appreciate the environments around us before they completely change.

GARNET GROVE This jewel tones story was influenced by nature yet again, but by more dense vegetation and florals in the middle of its seasonal color changes. Best viewed during golden hour or at dusk, where the vibrant, saturated colors stand out. These deep, rich colors feel luxurious and will, again, bring us back to nature.

NEON NIGHTS This brights story takes bright to a whole other level. These neon shades of our typical colors were inspired by the neon lights that are most vibrant at night. From installations, stoplights, to neon signs, these colors were taken directly from the hues that reflect off of the bulbs. These brights will give you the excitement to get through the day, and carry you all the way through the night.
