mytexturedworld: Looking at SS 2019 colours and patterns

Now I've explored my own body colours a bit I'm looking at the fashion colours for SS 2019 to see how they compare and work out which colours to focus on now. My collection of pins for this season.

Brown granite is a 25% colour for me

Hm, they're all variations on pink with no other blue or green than the rather too pure princess blue...

Too strong for me

Another prediction range

OK, looking at this one, I can add

Peacock blue 100%

Aqua 75%

Sticking to the principle that the colours I like

are the ones that go with my natural colouring,

then I am going to go for:

Peacock blue or blue-grey all over

Fiesta & Living coral & aqua with neutrals

Blue grey or brown granite neutrals (and may have to use a light neutral eg pinky beige or soft white)

Accessories in sweet lilac, muted pink peacock, jester red

Mmmm nice.

Fashion Patterns SS 2019

I see grid checks, Prada regular geometrics (with straight and ovals),
and fun prints eg D&G lollipops in very un-beachy colours,
and Stella Jean vintage look, all of which work for me.

These large blocks of strong pastel colour always
appeal. I could wear the lavender 25%, jade (100% pastel),
sky blue 25%, pink 25% and princess blue 100%
I like the abstractness though, and
can imagine them influencing something.

Aha! I can work with this.
Variations on calm tweed/checks

This appeals to me, goes somewhat with 30s style, and is in some of my colours
mint green, cherry red 100%, neutral grey 100%, bluegrey100%, pink, sky blue
It would be an influence rather than the whole idea.
(Except perhaps for the lovely dress in the middle!)

So next time sketchbook to work through some of these ideas.
