Fashion Trend Report 8 of 10: 5 Ways to Accessorize Pastel Colors

Key spring ready-to-wear clothing shows in four cities—New York, London, Milan, and Paris—took place from Sept. 2 through Oct. 1, resulting in a fresh crop of clothing trends. Jewelers need to take note in order to stock cases with the right pieces to complement the necklines and silhouettes of the season ahead. Pastel colors were among the spring 2015 clothing trends outlined in Fashion Trend Report: 10 Spring 2015 Clothing Trends Jewelers Must Know and Why. Here are 10 jewels to accessorize pastels.

Pastels

Pantone calls the colors for spring 2015 “soothing” and a “contrast with the connectedness compulsion of many.” To wit, choices are muted—“a minimalistic en plein air theme,” the self-proclaimed color authority maintains. The runways reflected this call (Max Mara, for one, showed watercolor flower prints) since Pantone confers with top designers to learn of the shades they are using for collections ahead. To accessorize, go classic with a metal-intense jewel, add a pop of color with gemstones, enamel, or costume pieces in shades as soft or bold as you like.
