Red
Red is the color of passion, confidence, and unforgettable style. For 2026, we are loving deep, rich jewel-toned rubies and vibrant, show-stopping crimsons. If you want a color that demands attention the moment you step into the room, red is your shade. It’s bold, fierce, and always a statement-maker - especially in luxurious fabrics like satin or velvet.

Blue
From deep-sea mystery to icy sparkle, blue is having a huge moment. Navy and midnight blue offer a stunning, sophisticated alternative to black, while still providing that dark, elegant base. On the lighter side, think dazzling electric cobalt, whimsical sky blue, and shimmering turquoise. Blue offers a cool, calming, yet utterly captivating presence.

Purple
Purple has always been associated with luxury and royalty, and for 2026, it's trending hard. Look out for deep, mesmerizing plums and eggplants, as well as playful, vibrant lavenders and orchid tones. Purple is a fantastic color if you want to stand out without wearing a primary color. It's unique, rich, and looks incredible under the disco lights!
