FASHION COLOR TRENDS FOR FALL 2021 |  truefashionistas | Women’s Fashion and Clothing

FASHION COLOR TRENDS FOR FALL 2021

Straight from Pantone courtesy of WWD come the most anticipated True Fashionista color trends to know about this fall. Thanks to vaccines, there is an undeniable air of hope and optimism abounding for ‘21, and fashion is happy to reflect it in street style and more. Back in December, as Layla Lichi reported, Pantone revealed that Illuminating — a bright yellow hue — and Ultimate Gray are its 2021 Colors of the Year, as both represent unity, stability and hope. Perhaps Pantone Executive Director Leatrice Eiseman put it best, “When the gray clouds disperse, we see the sunshine.” Aside from these two, several energetic colors stood out on the Fall ’21 runways, like a denim, close to sky-looking blue, gorgeous greens, a proper brown in outerwear, fiery reds and luscious auburns and comforting beiges.

Hey these are crazy times…

FASHION WEEK REIMAGINED

Here we are over six months into a pandemic, but the world must go on. The fashion world, like everyone else, knows full well that now more than ever the masses need, crave actually, fresh designs and the runways with which to introduce them, even if it’s mostly the live streaming version. Who better than True Fashionista creative design types to come up with a way for Fashion Month to still somehow happen? All that quarantined creative spark has had to go somewhere, and from what we’ve heard and seen from the initial party, aka New York Fashion Week, the new fashion normal did not disappoint.

SO MANY SKIRTS!

It’s not a question of when, but how, will you be wearing a skirt? Today’s selection? Tomorrow? Not to mention as always, who will you be wearing? After so many months of sheltering and zoom meetings, we’re ready to make our lower halves important once again, and what better way to accomplish that  than by donning a stunning, True Fashionista skirt to strut your stuff into a socially distanced, sanitized setting this fall and winter?

HOW WE LOVE JEANS

"I have often said that I wish I had invented blue jeans: the most spectacular, the most practical, the most relaxed and nonchalant. They have expression, modesty, sex appeal, simplicity — all I hope for in my clothes."

FALL/WINTER TRENDS – 2020

We’re taking our educated guess to predict what is going to be on your back, and our racks, through the new year. Maybe by One One Twenty-One (We said it first, mark that!) we won’t even have to match the mask to the ensemble. It could also be said that all this mega-quarantining may have inspired designers to come up with this year’s fresh looks.
KEEPING UP WITH PANT TRENDS

KEEPING UP WITH PANT TRENDS

Fall is roaring back and it has us thinking about…pants! Those of us who get to deal with winter on a more personal basis know the importance of keeping a collection of two-legged True Fashionista wonders each season; in warmer environs they’re merely an option. Either way, it’s good to know what to look for this year to go with your Madden Girls and Vejas.

Whether you live in our home base of southwest Florida or the more temperate environs up north, there’s always a need for a sweater or two… or 10. As the situation warrants each season, some updating to the collection is in order, but a few of the favorites always seem to stand out for optimum True Fashionista snuggly warmth and fashion. They’re like an old friend you’re happy to see after so long.

FALL COLORS THAT AREN’T PUMPKIN SPICE LATTE

FALL COLORS THAT AREN’T PUMPKIN SPICE LATTE

Every year it seems like fall and the holiday season make their appearance in stores earlier and earlier. Without fail, we’re still on August vacay, and Halloween costumes are hanging in windows and pumpkin spice flavoring has already found its way onto coffeehouse menus. However, we’re now well past Labor Day and there’s no denying it, fall is here. Granted, Fashion Week runways from New York, Milan, Paris and London were onto True Fashionista fall trends a good few months ago so we’re happy to share here the color trends that will taking over your closet this season. Have no fear, you have much to choose from that won’t look like your Thanksgiving table décor.

FALL/WINTER 2019 FASHION TRENDS

FALL/WINTER 2019 FASHION TRENDS

The return of street style as well as the instant documentation of it on social media has led to fashion heading from the runways to downtown at almost lightning speed, Vogue relays.  Minis are heading even further up, while everything else is just getting…bigger. Yes, maximalism returns in major form this season. Into fur? Make sure those fibers are longer. Thinking about a new A-line skirt? Wider, baby. Colors? As bright as humanly possible, please. And those prints just better be spotted a mile away.
