THE WAY YOU WEAR IT... PURPLE
purple

By Leanne Bayley

Alexander McQueen, Dolce & Gabbana, Basso and Brooke – they were all at it on the S/S 09 catwalks - blinding us with colour, from tangerine to red, cobalt to yellow. As exciting as it is, it has made our winter wardrobe suddenly look a little lacklustre. We want colour and we want it now. There is one gem of a shade we can guarantee is probably already lurking in your wardrobe. The shade? Purple of course.

These fashion mavens work next seasons’ colour trend now by adding a single flash of purple to their outfits. The best way to update your look is just one statement garment, be it a pair of tights, blazer, heels or dress.

If you’re not ready for purple clothes, take small steps with make-up. Click here for make-up artist Daniel Sandler’s tips on how to wear purple eye shadow.
