First came red, then cobalt blue. It would only make sense that the next color to trend is a combination of both: purple. The saturated hue—often associated with royalty and power—has reemerged on countless spring runways, been adopted by celebrities (notably, Zoe Kravitz and Jennifer Lawrence) and the street style set who’ve been punctuating their Fashion Month looks with pops of plum and violet.

The vibrant shade appeared in many forms on the spring runways: There was the tailoring at Versace, the dresses at Balenciaga, Valentino, and Prada; Hermès presented accessories, while Chloé incorporated it into a sundry of floral patterns.
Often considered a color that’s intimidating or tricky to style, purple stages its comeback this season with a sense of ease—the key to making it work in your everyday wardrobe is to not treat as a singular statement, but an element of your overall look, either as an accent or a grounding base.
Purple doesn’t quite fit into the “another neutral” category the way red does, but it is more versatile than you think, especially paired with other seemingly quirky colors, like chartreuse, Klein blue, or yellow. We’ll show you how, below.
Layering Act
Swap your white turtleneck base layer for a purple one, because why not? The shade plays nicely with a red button-up, grey trousers, and tasseled leather loafers.
