The Colour of the Season - Fuchsia

Fuchsia is back and better than ever. The colour of the season has taken over everything from our Instagram feeds to party dress racks. Even the most strongly-opposed critics are starting to soften to this bold feminine hue. We’re not saying you need to look like a walking talking Barbie doll (although, that is a valid styling choice if you so choose) because there are other chic ways to wear fuchsia. Below we’ve rounded up some of our favourite styling tips and tricks that will help you navigate this cheerful colour this spring and summer.

Sharp Tailoring

Being such a girly colour, pairing fuchsia with sharp tailoring is an easy way to balance out the youthfulness of the look.

Mixing with earthy, autumnal or neutral colours for autumn/winter

Tone things down by pairing fuchsia with navy, brown, rust and other earthy tones.

White

A white dress and fuchsia shoes - name a better combo. We’ll wait.

Head-to-Toe Fuchsia

Bold, playful and attention-grabbing - perfect for the extroverts among us.

Black

Opting for an all-black outfit and accenting your look with fuchsia accessories is an easy way to bypass the saccharine sweetness often associated with this shade of pink.

Red

Red and fuchsia emerged as a power combo on runways a few seasons ago and haven’t faltered since. Go for a bold, bright red to contrast against the fuchsia. We love the effect of a sharp red pantsuit against a bright fuchsia heel.
