Curvissa’s Spring/Summer collection is awash with bright hues and clashing shades as colour blocking dominates this season’s trends. We have some great looks to make the most of this kaleidoscopic trend, including plus size tops and trousers. Whether you want to fully embrace the colour blocking trend or give a subtle nod to this bold style, follow these rules to achieving colour block perfection.
Be bold with colourful accessories
Check your colour combinations
Making sure you choose colour combinations that complement one another is the first step to ensuring you get this trend right. Orange and blue, pink and purple and red and cobalt blue are some examples of great colour partners and will make a real fashion statement. If you’re brave enough to colour block from head to toe, the general rule of thumb is the brighter the better!
Blocking without the clashing
If mixing lurid brights and primary colours is a little daunting, wear a long dress in one block colour. An eye catching yellow, pink or red piece will make sure you turn heads for all the right reasons and allows you to work this trend without clashing too many shades.
Single solid colours create a striking effect
Accessorise
Colour blocking doesn’t have to mean a complete wardrobe overhaul, adding simple accessories is the easiest way to embrace this bold movement. Try mixing a black dress with vivid accessories for a colour-charged look that ticks this trend’s boxes without drowning you in colour. A vibrant belt, a pair of neon shoes or a bright bracelet will transform an understated look into a chic sensation.
Be confident
To work this trend perfectly, make sure your outfit both contrasts and coordinates and that flashes of colour are noticeable. So be brave and go bold! Colour blocking looks best when you wear it with confidence and panache. Getting colour blocking right is no easy feat, but by wearing the most vivid of shades and keeping your head held high, you can make this look really work for you.
