In autumn / winter 2022 too, society is still striving for a “new normal” with a slower pace of life and is placing new value on health and wellbeing.
Before the start of the F / W22 order season, we present the most important color predictions for men’s fashion with colors from the Sophicolor.com library.
Harvest
Inspired by a festival older than religion, a successful harvest is celebrated in various forms around the world. For the farmer: indoors, harvest time is one of the busiest times of the year, the colors are inspired by wheat fields and a golden sky. It’s a classic fall palette, especially for sweaters and outerwear.
Color palette: yellow and brown tones mix with burgundy red and orange and a touch of gray blue.
Bouquet
With this color scheme, the emphasis is on flowers that bloom in the winter months, like pansies. Flowers can speak to us and bring us in contact with our spirituality. This palette is suitable for intarsia patterns on knitted sweaters and prints on shirts that can be used all season.
Color palette: strong peach, pink and orange tones through to purple, brown and cream.
Beach
A walk on the beach in winter can be almost as tempting as in summer and is also good for your health. The bright sunlight evokes a feeling of wellbeing, and walking on sand instead of the sidewalk strengthens muscles. This palette works well with high-tech materials used in rainwear and casual wear.
Color palette: Cold pastel tones that merge into the neon spectrum are softened by navy, turquoise and dark green.
Wonderland
Due to global warming, snowfalls are less common than 20 to 30 years ago. If there is one, go out and enjoy the winter wonderland because it is usually short-lived! This color palette works well with outerwear, knitted sweaters, and plaids.
Color palette: Classic blue, green and ocher tones are softened by navy, off-white and gray tones and underlined with a touch of neon blue.
