These color-blocked fashion examples range from exaggerated retro menswear to sneakers that pay homage to styles made popular in the 90s. As the fashion industry continues to embrace maximalism and whimsy, color-blocking has made a triumphant return into the street style and runway spotlight -- replacing more understated color palettes of past seasons.
Standouts include the Lacoste Spring/Summer 2020 collection that was recently unveiled at Paris Fashion Week and the Hayley Elsaesser x Twik collaboration. While Lacoste's latest collection spotlights checkered prints and a palette of 70s-themed tones, the Hayley Elsaesser x Twik range is presented in a candy-colored theme of pastel pinks, blues and neon yellows.
Additional color-blocked fashion examples include the vibrant Rowing Blazers x Lands' End Capsule collection. The nostalgic, sporty and gender-neutral line consists of rugby shirts, duffle bags, hats and more, appealing to fans of effortlessly chic, collegiate apparel.
