Green: the summer trend that we will also wear in autumn

"Sitting in the shades on a beautiful day and looking up at the lush green hills is the best rest," wrote Jane Austen. It may have been the desire for nature that has spread during the months of lockdown, but green is the latest trend in terms of fashion colors . Protagonist of the spring summer 2021 collections , now depopulated on the fall winter 2021/2022 catwalks .

It is the green accomplice of the renewed desire for ecology, increasingly strong among consumers who are attentive to the environmental impact of fashion. It is also the green hope: that symbol of a world free from the pandemic. A nuance that does not lack the set of values. But how to wear it and how to choose the shade remains an aesthetic question. Emerald, sage or wood? This is how designers want it next season.

Woods

Dark, deep, bottle or fir, it is the novelty of autumn winter 2021. It is worn full look for Gucci, with the jacket and trousers logoed suit combined with a pair of black and white moccasins. It is preppy according to Philosophy di Lorenzo Serafini, declined on sweatshirts, polo shirts and pleated college-style skirts interrupted by badges and yellow or burgundy stripes: two perfect color matches, to remember. Intense and enveloping on the maxi teddy coat by Max Mara, which also opts for a more discreet mood: with velvet skirt, coordinated socks and military jacket.

Ringing

Light green, bright and color block. This is how Salvatore Ferragamo wants it in his fall / winter 2021 fashion show. Illuminated by smooth textures like leather or techno-chic, materials that make it even more vibrant. Same iridescent effect from Balenciaga, one of the first brands to love and promote it in recent seasons. She even takes it on the Haute Couture catwalk, on a very voluminous satin dress. Too eccentric for a total look? Dries Van Noten declines it on boots, sandals and clutches, Dolce & Gabbana on bags. The complementary color? Hermés suggests brown. Loewe and Louis Vuitton combine it with touches of yellow. Prada with marc.

Pistachio or sour

Balmain and Alberta Ferretti focus on mud, military and pistachio N.21: the latter lights up looks in suede and velvet tending to sage with petrol blue or camel. Acid green, in full revival of the early 2000s, for Blumarine: laid on cardigans edged in contrasting faux fur, dissonant yet perfect combined with electric blue. Same decade of reference for Marco Rambaldi: welcome back combinations of pink and lilac (do you remember?). Even Dior chooses a similar nuance for more than one accessory: from the Lady Dior to the tote bag to the sneakers. Kenzo focuses on floral patterns and combines them with the brightest shade of the same color.
