And what is a happy, blushing modern bride without the hashtag of wit? For next spring, designers trace the surging desire for quietitude and reflection, for playfulness and discovery in an urban setting, a cry out for nature in a modern constructed world. Like art and expression flowing out of architecture, like a lush tree growing tall and strong in the midst of a city, like a door between inside and outside - the style of today is very much on the verge of becoming something else, yet remaining in the premises of the traditional.

The best hue combinations are playful, courageous and deeply soothing - "inspired by the contrast of urban design and lush vegetation, leading to unexpected colour combinations and collections reminiscent of architecture, travel and nostalgia." Role models of the spring colour palette include Matisse, Picasso and Frank Stella. Moreover, it is very much unisex, transcending cultural and gender norms.
