Summer Colour Glossary for Men

Summer- a season where the colour synergy flows from airy and light to explosive and bright. A season where we see creativity and colour mixes unfold new trends. The menswear colour story is undoubtedly eccentric yet conservative with the continuing influence of neutrals, blue and green while typical bold shades of red, orange and yellow enter like a rebel move to turn up the temperature this season.

Take a quick glance into colour directions set to dominate men’s wardrobe this summer.

New-Age Neutrals

Neutral shades being recurrent across the catwalks cemented the stone shade as the most popular colour of the season. Incorporate the shade in tailored sherwanis as well as relaxed kurtas to top the style stakes this summer.

Shades of Pink

Bright blush accents have lit up the summer trend prompting cool nonchalance impact during muted summer. Choose the pale hue for your best man look adding a subtle styling detail. Case in point- a monotone ethnic ensemble packs added flamboyance for daytime festivities.

Classic Red

Work the fine line between OTT and classic giving the striking red a burnt brown undertone treatment for a rustic look. Add fresh white accents with print and patterns to break the monotony through optical illusions.

Intense Blue

Rich and inky shades of blue are a mainstay for every man’s wardrobe. Choose the polished path with crisply tailored separates or simply go cult classic with a monotone blue formal ensemble.

Well-trimmed Green

Green has become the new option for contemporary men’s choice this summer. A sharply tailored suit in a tide or teal tone is a surefire definition of 21st-century luxury. Tip: Team them up with a neutral separates to keep it in check.

Indian textiles carry a strange intimacy, although most of us only recognise it much later, usually while emptying an old wardrobe. In India, clothes rarely exist as just clothes.
