Color blocking is not a brand new trend but even as someone who is always on the lookout for fashion inspiration I don't see many people wearing the style. While pulling clothing for our most recent fashion show I got to experiment with the idea while putting together a scene dedicated to the look.
A few guidelines that I like to work with:
1. What works best for this style is bold solid pieces. Pastels are too whimsical and if there is a print you usually don't get the same effect.
2. The look is best with three pieces as opposed to just two, showing a real comparison in color. Which of the two pictures above intrigues you more?
3. Try to use colors on opposite sides of the color wheel to add more interest.
