Many hues, tints, shades and tones of green and blue are having their fashion moment. In solids and patterns, and across wardrobe items and fabrics. Think green and blue pastels, mid tones, greyed tones, earthy tones, muted tones, jewel tones, brights, neon, and darks. Blue-greens and green-blues like teals and turquoise are included too. And of course, the blue spectrum includes all sorts of denim.

Here are some examples.

We see greens and blues every season, but this year we will see more, and more variations, especially in footwear and handbags. If you have a favourite type of green and blue, chances are high you’ll find it this year. Interestingly, I also see navy coming through as a dark background in patterns instead of black.

Most of my clients wear some type of green or blue, even if it’s just blue denim or an olive utility jacket. Some wear a wide assortment of greens and blues and count them as their favourite colours.

Personally, I wear a lot of blue and have a wardrobe full of it. I enjoy light and dark blue denim washes. Navy is my dark neutral. I wear light blue specs daily, and like wearing a saturated pastel blue. I also love bright turquoise, and French blue. As for greens, I like them sour, bright, and on the yellow side. I love blue, but don’t like my greens in bluish, cool tones. Lime and apple green are my favourites. Chartreuse is an extremely green-yellow, or yellow-green. I’m unsure whether it qualifies as green, but if it does, I adore wearing it. I like neon green too.

Lime and apple green are finally coming through as fashion colours, after years on hiatus. Sour green is my colour of the year, and it’s a style goal to add more items in this colour to my wardrobe in 2023.

Over to you. Which are your favourite greens and blues, and do they feature in your style?
