New York Fashion Week Spring 2006, September 9-16, 2005

New York designers are awash in America’s favorite color for Spring 2006. From sea to shining sea – the Mediterranean and Caribbean to the South Pacific and Atlantic – they have collected shades ranging from aquatic Blue Tint to placid Skyway and seaworthy Deep Ultramarine. Smooth sailing typifies the calm and effortless attitude infusing the season.

Breezy, carefree hues like Lily Green, fresh Viola, juicy Melon and French Vanilla – perhaps borrowed from a Matisse – take the edge off, while Pink re–enters the palette as Cameo Pink after a brief respite.
