"The desire for tranquility, strength, and
optimism have inspired a Fall 2016 color palette that is led by the Blue
family. Along with anchoring earth tones, exuberant pops of vibrant colors
also appear throughout the collections. Transcending gender, these unexpectedly
vivacious colors in our Fall 2016 palette act as playful but structured
departures from your more typical fall shades.
Blue skies represent constancy as they are
always above us. Grays give a feeling of stability, Red tones invite confidence
and warmth, while the hot Pinkish Purples and Spicy Mustard Yellows suggest a
touch of the exotic."
