Most of you must own at least one winter coat to keep you warm and surely that one coat is black, it is very common to leave color behind when it comes to winter, most girls stick to dark colors during this season, but why is that?
Color is not meant for spring or summer only, color can be anywhere in any time, even on your jackets, blazers and coats.
The cold days aren’t over and what better way to shift from winter to spring than with a colorful coat as a transitional look. Pick them in bright red, green blue or pink; there are lots of shades to choose from.
If you feel the need to investigate a little further about this trend, browse through designer’s proposals and get some ideas: Nina Ricci went for pastel hues in coats, The Row aced with a perfectly tailored coat in a divine mustard shade; YSL went for bright purple, among other colors; Celine sent a model to the runway wearing a beautiful tangerine minimalist coat and Louis Vuitton glammed up the catwalks with models wearing vibrant red fur coats.
Take a look at the gallery of images in this article and feast over Alberta Ferretti’s F/W 2011 collection filled with multi-colored coats. Think about it, these coats can blend with other color palettes or inject the bright vibe you need in an all-one color outfit.
Still wondering about the Technicolor coats? Try this: start slowly, wear an all-black outfit and add a rich blue or pink coat on top. You’ll love it so much you’ll want to buy one coat in every color of the rainbow.
