Fashion: This shade of green will follow us until winter

The runways of the fall-winter 2024 collections have shown us the trends that will dominate this end of the year. Among them, a certain shade of green stands out.

IN BRIEF

• A shade of green is emerging as the key color for fall-winter 2024.

• This famous green invaded the fashion shows last February, seen in particular at Chloé, Burberry, Gucci and Fendi.

• How to incorporate this shade of green into your look?

As the seasons go by, some colors stand out more than others, and become, for a few months, a reference for fashionistas’ looks. This end of the year is no exception to the rule, as several shades have stood out.

You already know that brown and burgundy are among the key colors of fall, their dark and elegant spirit recalling the coppery landscapes of the season. But another shade from the plant color chart is dominating fashion this fall.

Fashion: Olive green invades the catwalks

Indeed, olive green is a must! Cozier than a summery apple green, more pigmented than a romantic sea green and warmer than a cold fir green, it is taking wardrobes by storm just as it took the catwalks by storm a few months ago. Last February, when the fall-winter 2024 collections were being shown, it was clear that olive green was taking the lion’s share.

In a tartan version on a long cape at Chloé, a strapless grass dress at Burberry, an ultra-chic shorts suit at Gucci or a long luminous dress at Fendi, it was as if the designers had passed the word around! Other brands like Bottega Veneta, Hermès, Isabel Marant and Saint Laurent have multiplied olive green looks, confirming the color’s consecration within the trends.

Olive green: how to wear the color of the season?

With olive green all the rage, how do you incorporate it into your outfit? The great thing about this color is that it has the right mix of bold and austere . Meaning, it’s more fun than black and more discreet than chick yellow, for example. We say yes to martini green!

You can go in small doses by just adding an accessory like ballet flats, scarves, a sweater or a suede bag to green up the outfit. And if you’re feeling adventurous, don’t hesitate to adopt the total look, whether it’s a long dress, a wraparound coat or even a suit, which is wildly elegant.
