Indigo

It’s no wonder that this luxurious hue’s the color of royalty-opulent indigo ruled the runway in sleek silhouettes and decadent fabrics. Work this lavish color with metallic accessories, choosing a shift for the office but letting your hemline flow at night.

Fuchsia

Feminine pink gets a jolt this spring in its hottest variation: fuchsia. Since this hue is edgier than its paler cousins, an ultra-girly silhouette paired with punchy coral cheeks doesn't look too sweet. Round out your ensemble with black or neutral heels that won't compete with this color.

Chartreuse

What’s more refreshing than citrus on a warm day? Make a sunny statement in this surprisingly flattering florescent. Deeper, more saturated versions of this hue pair best with lighter skin while brighter tones pop against darker complexions.

Tangerine

This orange is anything but subtle. Bright and bold, tangerine looks best worn in solid blocks. Stick to a classic silhouette and experiment with fun, high-contrast accessories for day or accent with basic black for a chic evening look.

Turquoise

Don’t shy away from blue’s tropical cousin. Instead, channel turquoise's aquatic inspiration with cascading ruffles or voluminous sleeves. For a ready-to-wear take on this runway trend, break up your palette with neutral accessories, or up the drama with a solid wash of turquoise—head-to-toe if you dare.
