Check out these designers and their color inspirations for their Spring 2012 collections
Rebecca Minkoff
inspiration:
Nature and the tones and shades of the desert — the different colors of the day, sunrise and sunset over a dry warm landscape
prominent colors:
Aloe Green, Soft Jade, Hot Blush, Neon Sun, Wet Sand, Faded Black, Washed Out Pink and Indigo Blue
signature color:
Jade and Hot Blush tones — I like tones of one color, the spectrum of a Bright Green into a soft fading Jade, a Bright Neon Pink into a Soft Blush tone — the Jade and Blush also feel like fragile vintage colors and it is interesting to place these into modern shapes
Ella Moss
inspiration:
70s romance, flea market treasures and long lazy road trips
prominent colors:
Clean saturated brights mixed back to faded neutral tones: Crisp Lemon Zest Yellow paired with Cool Pavement Gray, Liquid Caribbean Green mixed with Light Oatmeal, and Deep Lipstick Red with Dusty Chambray Blue
signature color:
Crystal Clear Caribbean Green — this feels fresh and new for spring and pairs well back to the palette of bright colors and muted tones
Rachel Roy
inspiration:
Colonial Vietnam; the movie The Lover was a strong reference point — a romantic, innocent, refined woman who explores and breaks tradition by diving into a complex, dynamic and modern world — that's the story I feel every woman can identify with!
prominent colors:
I wanted a feeling of old world, transparent, light and refined simplicity in neutral pastels such as cooled down lush, bright tones: Blue, Copper, Zinnia and Zest
signature color:
Aquamarine and Glass Greens dominate the collection this season
Charlotte Ronson
inspiration:
The evocative '20s, the demure detailing of the Victorian era, combined with the patch workings of denim taken from the restless grunge decade
prominent colors:
Kentucky Blue, Gardenia Ivory, Orange Rust and Tannin
signature color:
Chambray Blue — we focus on denim treated in a new way — we color block, patchwork, bleach bandana motifs on chambray and use an array of denim hues to create a water-colored plaid print
