Pantone’s colour of the year has been announced as “Living Coral”, a peachy pink shade that is as strident as it is scintillating, at least, it can be when it’s worn right.
Saturating the spring/summer 2019 runways in September, the buoyant hue came in hot via souped-up suits at Peter Pilotto and pouf-tastic gowns at Preen by Thornton Bregazzi.
Coral is set to take the sartorial scene by storm come January, but as all fashion fiends will know, when it comes to embracing trends with aplomb, timing is everything.
Early adopters of the colour-du-jour will rein supreme while late bloomers will trail behind in, quite literally, a dismal fashion.
So get ahead of the game by priming your wardrobe with our pick of the best coral pieces available to buy now.
