If the Pantone color forecast indicates what colors are trending each season, then fashion designers clearly have a head of their own.

Clean lined long coats in mystifying deep green are made to look twice mysterious by layering it over a green dress polished with tall black boots. Camouflage green is styled up with either black or white. Green separates look equally great if teamed with bright colors such as pink or purple, or if matched with another green.
YOUR STREET STYLE:
Green Dress for a touch of romance. Choose a green dress to dress the occasion, classic lace for a wedding or a green prism skater shape for parties, and add a flattering black jacket. The darker you go, the better. Complete the look with sexy black pumps or green pumps that match exactly your dress. If you opt for long green dresses, break the monochrome with light blue or yellow ankle boots.
