COLOR BLOCKING

by Katja Schmolka

Who doesn´t have a black "It piece" hidden somewhere in the closet? One bold colored piece at a time, add an electric blue belt, yellow shoes, a fuchsia fake fur jacket or a neon green silk blouse, and you are actually in this season's A/W18 "fashion game". That´s the rule and that´s the secret of color blocking. This recurring trend was first seen in the mid-1980s on MTV celebrated by the pop divas of this time like Madonna, Prince and Whitney Houston.
