Fashion Trend Forcast: Colors Of 2007 Spring / Summer 2008

color-forcast-predictions-2.jpg

Here is your top 10 color predictions from Anne Telford from New York Fashion Week. Heidi Klum says, that in fashion "one day you're in, the next day you're out" but when it comes to colors- their popularity shifts with the cultural winds. Colors come into prominence from decade to decade driven by influence ranging from the state of economy to world politics and cultural phenomena- these factors examined by the color experts, and the prism through which they are viewed is the world of fashion.

New York fashion designers are flourishing in a season of new beginnings, using surprising neutrals with innovative splashes of corals, yellows and purples to create a spring in bloom. Tarragon is the freshly cut stem to the blossoming shades of sweet Strawberry Ice, warm Golden Apricot and violet-infused Hollyhock. Café Crème is the rich, creamy contrast to the serenity of calming Sky Blue or the deliciousness of refreshing Grapemist.

The yellow glow of gleaming Green Sheen and the blushing beauty of diaphanous Silver Peony reflect the infusion of life brought by spring. While cool Frost Gray was an important presence in fall of '06, the newest neutral for spring is found in glimmering Opal Gray, providing the background to spring's multifaceted, complex brights that can make even the most basic silhouette come alive.
