Winter 2026’s Fashion Color Trends Are Already Making a Mark

2025 was a banner year for color trends. Butter yellow replaced white as a go-to, rich-feeling neutral. Olive was the more muted follow-up to Brat green. And chocolate brown became a decadent treat that made us look and feel luxurious. Looking at the Winter 2026 collections, next year will be just as vibrant, filled with viral moments that come with shades to match our moods.

The Winter 2026 color trends—first presented in luxury lookbooks and on runways worldwide this past June—are made up of an impressive range of shades. Minimalists will be pleased to see classic camel brown and navy blue so deep that it’s almost black. (In the words of “The Cutting Room Floor”’s Recho Omondi, “To me, the perfect, proper, sophisticated navy looks like ink, and you only really catch it in the sunlight.”) There are saturated and striking colors in equal measure: Brands like Fendi, Tory Burch, and Victoria Beckham hone in on bright blue-green teal and tangy tangerine, especially on “main character” coats and cocktail dresses for holiday parties.
