THE future’s bright as bold colour is back and bigger than ever.

To really pack a punch, think fresh, clashing shades.

Follow in the fashion footsteps of Victoria Beckham and pair together unlikely hues.

Pinks and blues, purples and oranges, red and yellows – there is no end to which shades you can wear together.

Here, Abby McHale shows you how to make a statement by forgetting the rulebook and going colour crazy.

TIP: Rich colours such as mustard and forest green are a great option if you don’t want to go all out with the brighter shades.

TIP: Taking runway inspiration this season is about the suit with contrasting jumper. Add oomph to a two-piece with a bright knit.

TIP: Tick two trend boxes in one by clashing colours and textures. Soft silks and hard vinyl make a catwalk-worthy look.

TIP: Lilac and green should always be seen. They are opposites on the colour wheel making them a perfect pairing.

TIP: This sugary shade of pink against cobalt blue creates a dramatic look with minimum effort.

TIP: An office outfit doesn’t have to be dull. Add a bright silk shirt with a pair of fitted trousers for the ultimate power look.
