The look: The new color codes

Black may be fashion’s fail-safe color, but designers across the board are embracing new mood-enhancing hues this season – and we’re here for it. Don’t be daunted by the idea of adding a little more sunshine to your look; even die-hard minimalists will find it easy to add color in the form of a bright tee, tonal accessories and a hammered-silk slip, all of which look faultless layered under DVF’s chic beige blazer. Maximalists should indulge their inner magpie and go for a color-pop mash-up, enlivening muted tailoring with sky-blue pants and rich burgundy accessories.
