Go Green With Fashion’s Favorite Color

Fashion’s favorite color family? Earth tones. Seems the months spent predominantly indoors over the past year-plus have incited a penchant for clothing in colorful hues evoking Mother Nature.

While there are always vibrant, mood-boosting colors en mode at any given time, the chosen colors of 2021 are symbolic, too. We’re gravitating toward hues that most closely mirror the great outdoors, like the deep rusts, umbers, and oranges of a Grand Canyon sunset.

But, one color reigns supreme now more than ever: green. We’re picking up clothes in all of green’s hues, from mint and sage to Kelly and evergreen. And it’s no surprise, out of all the colors in the spectrum, it’s green that most closely connotes nature.

While nature has always inspired designers, this sentiment feels even more true as we navigate through re-emergence. Wearing green is the closest you can come to taking a forest bath no matter where the day takes you.

Many designers have released greens into their collections, like Bottega Veneta’s range of Kelly green accessories, Jacquemus’s muted sage green sweaters, and Paris Georgia’s pretty pistachio silk maxi skirt.

Thus, we’re nominating it as the color of re-emergence—it feels like a tangible expression of our hopeful spirits as we re-enter the world and reconnect with friends and loved ones. Here, shop the best green-hued clothes on the market.
