There's something for everyone this season ... clear bright yellow-based colours for the Springs (coral, yellow, peach, neon green). Lots of pastels - great for Summers and a few Winters (lemon, lilac, spearmint). Some very bright deep colours just for Winters (neon pink, cobalt blue). Perhaps fewer colours for Autumns but there are some of your blues and teals, plus deeper corals and peaches.
Unusually there isn't a dominant style personality; plenty of florals and lace for the Romantic, exotic prints for the Expressive, tailored timeless styles for the Classic, fabulous denims and loose, comfy tops & jumpers for the Natural.
I'm seeing a tidal wave of ocean shades (cobalt blue, blues, turquoises, teals, aquas - a hue for every Season), heaps of black & white, and some classy metallics (silver, gold, even bronze).
Historically, there's a sense of the Baroque period (very rich, ornate materials) and the 1920's (drop waist, long fringing - think Charleston dress). The contrasting lady-like 50's with the colour-blocking and simplicity of the 60's continues.
Peplums (a short flared piece of fabric attached at the waist) are still popular - they don't work for every figure, and not every peplum is the same.
Key items are pretty dresses (lace, pastels, brights & floral prints), short, tailored jackets, and coloured jeans (plain & prints).
Have fun!
