Color-blocking

Colour block fashion is one of the hottest new trends for the season. It combines the use of two or more blocks of colour in an ensemble. This could be for a top, bottom, tunic, a dress and even a handbag or shoes. 

In simple means – creating an outfit by putting areas or blocks of solid color next to each other.

 It can include monotone, bright colours, muted colors, contrasting and complimentary colors. 

Clothes, shoes, handbags and accessories can all feature color block designs or can make up different blocks of color to be put together for a color block outfit.


Here are some awesome (and crazy) runway trends!
