Turquoise, sea foam, mint and teal, we adore shades of blue green anyway you call it!

Trend Report: Black, Red,and Blue


Black, red and blue is making its SS16 runway appearance in a bright, bold and sophisticated way.


 The spring collection of Max Mara featured a mature take on nautical with this quirky rope repeat. The simple pattern really pops off the blue, red, and black backgrounds.


 Milly's collection used an interesting hatch layout to also showcase this bold palette. Stacked line work and directional changes make this design stand out behind its monotone background. 


Isabel Marant takes a different, more subtle approach to adding reds, blues, and blacks to her prints. The designs have a similar geo diamond layout adding a burst of color to a stripped arrangement while also toning down the brights with some dustier shades


Rhie combines a houndstooth, plaid, and geo tribals to create a patchy alignment. The collection is also featuring an interesting poppy repeat stacked to mimic the other grid layouts of the other ensembles.
