Another New York Fashion Week trend that is perfectly in keeping with the distancing from minimalism is the use of bright/neon colors. Sometimes called “highlighter hues,” palettes of bright, neon pinks, greens, oranges, and yellows took over the runways. This is unsurprising, due to the fact the the revival of 80’s decade trends has also been increasing over recent seasons. Designers like Marchesa, Naeem Khan, and Tracy Reese all ditched neutral, subdued pieces that make up the minimalism trend, and opted for a composition of eclectic, vibrant colors, all perfect for the warmer months of the year.
Stacey Bendet of Alice and Olivia, was inspired for her Spring 2018 collection by the iconic Chelsea Hotel in New York City. She got help from young artists in the city to create her designs, which included pieces like brightly colored suits and ruffled dresses in busy, floral prints. Tracy Reese debuted a collection of simple, staple style pieces, with the added lively statement of hot pink, graphic prints, and sequins.
Click through the slideshow above to see how other designers incorporated this color palette into their most recent collections.

Badgley Mishcka for spring 2012 showed bright hues, such as yellow, citron, green, pink, and burnt orange, in jacquard, brocade, chiffon, and organza. A stunning turquoise brocade cocktail dress with intricate purple detailing came down the runway followed by a fuchsia number with beautiful structure and tailoring, including a peplum, which adds layers in the front for a fun, feminine look. Bright colors and silver belts make this classic look have an edgy feel, as well as, a turquoise leather jacket over a bright turquoise swimsuit adds a little rock n’ roll into the collection. Mark Badgley and James Mischka truly have an eye when designing their collections, as cinched waists, sweetheart necklines, and layered ruffles are flattering on every woman.
