Earthy, natural colours are huge at the moment, and rust has emerged as the season’s centrepiece. Having recently appeared on runways as the trendiest colour, can now be found on all garments and accessories from jeans to shoes to wallets. I’ve been obsessed with this colour trend recently, especially paired with other earth tones and this season we will be seeing a lot of the rust and terracotta colours.
What I like about this colour is that it complements almost every skin tone, and it goes so well with other warm earthy colours, which will fit perfectly with the Autumn / winter feel. It was also super popular in the 70’s, which was crowned as the hottest trend on the latest Autumn \ Winter runways.
Use it sparingly. Being such a bold colour, rust is best worn on one garment at a time. If you even try to pair, say, a rust-coloured jumped with matching shoes, it will be too much. Pick one item per outfit to wear in this season’s main colour.
Plain rust coloured pants or jeans are the most versatile piece to own. Go for bottoms as simple as possible, with minimal visible pockets and detailing, and pair them with a patterned or textured top. This way rust is not the focal point of your outfit.
