Burnt colours: statement hues for now

They're the colours for now and they're the colours for next season. And between now and then, just about every label and retailer will offer something up in a burnt shade of colour that sits somewhere between red and yellow. That means that this is a burnt colour trend is inclusive of orange, a burnt hue that Acne have picked up on.

They're not the only ones of course; Burberry Prorsum are offering up burnt reds and oranges in their men's and women's autumn / fall 2011 collection, and fast fashion retailer Zara have the hues sitting amongst current season offerings.

The above take on the colour trend comes from Hanneli, who is pairing the open-backed Acne sweater with a mini-skirt from the same fashion house. The bag is Mulberry.
