Trending colours in 2023

Colours, colours and more colours – you can't get away from them. Some say that each colour has its own meaning and that they’re an excellent way of expressing how you feel or what you want to achieve. At Salsa, we can't deny that we have a certain fascination with them and we wasted no time before creating coloured jeans

If we think about love, what immediately comes to mind, apart from Paris, is shades of red. Green is the colour of hope and white is associated with peace and purity.

These associations become tangible, especially at certain times of the year, such as New Year’s Eve, when the colour of underwear is carefully chosen based on what you want to achieve in the new year that’s about to begin.

Pantone has wasted no time and it’s already chosen the colour that will mark 2023. “Bright Magenta” was chosen colour of the year for 2023, transmitting energy and strength. But it’s not all about magenta. We’ve rounded up the trending colours in 2023 so that you can be in the loop about the dictates of fashion catwalks.

The energy of bright colours

Feel more alive than ever with bright, rich colours. Whether it’s warm and sunny or it's a cloudy day, colours can change the way you look at your day.

If, on the one hand, there are those who argue that certain colours are transitory and clearly restricted to a certain season, on the other hand, there are also those who believe that if you really like a certain colour, no trend should interfere with your love for that colour.

Find out about the warm and vivid colours that seem to have a life of their own and that promise to be the key point of your looks.

Electric blue

Blue doesn't have to be boring, on the contrary. Electric blue promises to leave nobody indifferent. It’s proof of confidence and wanting to make a difference.

From more casual items to bolder solutions, there will be no shortage of options for you to use and misuse this colour.

Shades of magenta

It's true, as we said, that this year you can expect to find magenta everywhere – after all, it's been elected fashion colour of 2023.

This irreverent shade – between pink and violet – is the revival of the pink passion that tends to primarily mark the infancy of the female gender. To indulge this nostalgia, this shade can be found in a number of items, from small details to complete looks from head to toe.

Dare to take on an energetic, rebel spirit with this appealing shade. We think that you're already making plans for the next time you can incorporate this colour!

Green

Are there fans of green out there? From khaki to lettuce green, green has lots of variations and has been seen in fashion weeks in recent years.

In 2023, the spotlight is on a more exotic shade – amazon green. It’s a colour that transmits elegance and hope, but that can be easily adapted to any occasion. Do you want to go to a formal event? This colour won't let you down. If you're looking for something more relaxed, go for jeans, a shirt in this shade and some accessories.

The charm of pastel colours

Contrasting with brighter colours, there are also some cosier, more discreet colours.

You don't always want to be the centre of attention and that’s perfectly normal. It’s on these occasions that pastel colours come into their own, offering the sensation of the maximum comfort you're looking for.

In this category of colours, the spotlight is on shades of yellow, orange, pink and green, in less saturated and pigmented versions.

Yellow

It's impossible to dissociate yellow from sunny summer days. This vibrant colour, even in its pastel version, transmits happiness and positivity. In terms of symbolism, there are theories that yellow stimulates mental activity, creativity and reasoning. Have you got something in yellow?

Orange

Orange is often a colour that people disagree about. There are those who love it and those who wouldn't dream of wearing it. However, 2023 brings good news for fans of this colour.

This tropical shade will be a good ally, particularly for darker skin, as it contributes to highlighting the melanin in the skin. This year's collection for women and for men has suggestions that incorporate this colour into all kinds of fabrics, from leather to satin.

Pink

If magenta is in the spotlight, the more subtle shades of pink are also highlighted among the fashion colours. Darker shades of pink are normally associated with sensuality, while the lighter shades are culturally linked to tenderness and romance.

We suggest experimenting with matching different shades of pink in a single look. You'll be able to create an interesting visual splash without much effort!

The specialists dictated the trending colours for 2023, but there’s no shortage of solutions for playing around with them and reinventing them. The combination of different shades – often unexpected – has arisen as an increasingly common solution. You’ve certainly noticed the recent passion for associating green and pink in the same look. From standalone colours to ideal partners – we approve!

With regard to fashion colours, there are no rules, genders or limitations. Attitude and audacity are the words of the day for you to feel comfortable and have the confidence to face the day.
