Yellow in all its shades, from mimosa
to saffron, is the leading colour in women's 2017 fall-winter
fashion, both on the runway as well as on the red carpet.
Pantone has announced Primrose Yellow - a brighter, more
springtime version of last year's Spicy Mustard - as one of the
trending colours of 2017.
This shade of yellow is perfect for both long and short
dresses, bringing a sophisticated look to those shown by Chloè
and Dries Van Noten.
It's also a colour that enhances accessories, as shown in
Fendi and Versace bags.
Energetic, bright yellow was seen on the red carpet at this
year's Oscars, on Leslie Mann in a saffron-toned ball gown by
Zac Posen, on Laura Dern in a paprika yellow gown, and on Sarah
Paulson who wore a long yellow and black dress.
Yellow-white and yellow-black are the two colour combinations
found in Donatella Versace's new collection, while Oscar de La
Renta's red carpet gowns showed up in gold-yellow and
lime-yellow hues.
Gucci by Alessandro Michele, on the other hand, offers up an
elegant floral yellow.
We find yellow, which in the colour scale occupies the spot
just after white, everywhere in our daily lives.
Together with red and blue, it's one of the three primary
colours for painters, but not for scientists whose three primary
colours are red, blue, and green.
It's the symbol of light, energy, and wisdom.
It makes school buses and taxis more visible, signals caution
on stoplights, and is the colour of the winner's jersey in the
Tour de France.
Yellow even has the ability to regulate heartbeat frequency
and blood pressure.
Those who love the colour yellow are said to be extroverted,
lively, carefree, kind and very imaginative, loving change and
always searching out the new, while those who dislike yellow
feel underappreciated and victimised, blaming other people's
negativity.
