This Is Our Favorite Breakout Color from NYFW

It's looking like a veritable Easter egg hunt on the runways this season, with shades of buttercup yellow, baby blue, and soft pink (more bubblegum than millennial) edging out your usual brights. And there's one hue in particular that seems to be popping up more than most: lavender. The pale purple first made an appearance at Tom Ford in the form a shiny bomber and '80s-style leather joggers and has made its way to a cute sweater-n-shorts set at Tibi and the prettiest relaxed suit at Victoria Beckham. There's something that's a shade less sweet about it compared to other pastels—especially when paired with well-worn denim or a clashing red lip (two looks we'll be trying out ourselves).
