5 colours that will be in fashion for spring 2022

The colours of spring are enough to bring a smile to anyone’s face.

The crisp blue of sun-drenched skies, the bright yellows of the first daffodils and wattle, the lush greens of our gardens and parks – it’s as though nature threw her colour palette to the ground and said, “enjoy”.

For fashionistas of Camberwell Junction, spring is also a wonderful time to throw off the drab greys and blacks of winter and inject some colour and joy into our ensembles.

The fashion stores of Camberwell Junction are embracing spring; their windows coming alive with the five must-have colours of the season. Here’s what they are and how to style them.

1. Teal

It’s a most regal colour, synonymous with quality and luxury, and the perfect shade for those longing for a break from common greens and blues.

This spring, the teal fashion trend is manifested in colour-blocking style. Think: teal wide-legged cotton pants or totally teal flouncy blouses.

Remember, teal is a tone that stands alone so team it with pieces in neutral tones, such as plain beige pants or the classic black tee.

2. Butter yellow

Add a bit of sunshine to your spring look with deliciously happy butter yellow.

It’s the neutral shade with a dash of ‘wow’. Creamy, smooth and soft, it’s the shade that should be called ‘I can’t believe it’s not yellow’.

Tailored pants and dresses lend themselves perfectly to butter yellow, which looks just as fresh and lovely in a floral summer dress for casual weekends.

Our style tip: butter yellow is going to feature strongly in Spring Racing Carnival ensembles.

3. Cornflower blue

It’s a shade we loved in the ‘90s and like a long-lost love, this spring we’re welcoming back cornflower blue with open arms.

Cornflower blue is the lovechild of royal blue and baby blue, neither stark and bright nor soft and gentle, and it’s all over the fashion stores of Camberwell Junction.

This spring, the must have cornflower blue pieces include flowing skirts and the two-piece suits, which can be broken down to pants and a blouse, or a blazer and jeans. You decide.

4. Emerald green

Emerald green – it’s a colour that’s rich and opulent and quietly bright.

Last year we saw emerald green emerge as colour trend, and this spring in Camberwell Junction, it’s ready to announce its staying power.

This spring, fashion has decided that emerald green is the preferred alternative to primary colour territory. It’s making its presence felt in dresses and pants, but the standout trend is the loose-fitting emerald green boho-style shirt.

5. Pale grey

If creams and classic white feel like a bit of a yawn, you’ll love the newest player on the neutral colour palette: pale grey.

Pale grey lends itself particularly to linen and cotton pieces, including tailored shorts, shirts and light spring blazers, although this season you’ll also see pale grey showing up in loose cotton draw string pants, camisoles and tanks.

It’s the perfect colour to create a foundation layer, to which you can add any of spring’s bold and bright colours.

No matter what your style or the looks you’re creating for spring, you’ll always be on-trend when you choose your wardrobe in the latest key colours from Camberwell Junction. For more inspiration, view our fashion directory here.
