Bold colours have brightened up the international fashion week circuit in recent seasons, with acid brights cropping up both on and off the catwalk. Termed “dopamine dressing” for its feel-good, mood-boosting qualities, we’ve been soaking up the zingy knitwear, outré shirts, juicy dresses and peppy accessories on offer. If the shows are anything to go by, then tangy orange, hot pink and lemon yellow could well be the new black.

Let the street stylers convince you to add more colour to your wardrobe this summer. Take style cues from their colourful fashion statements, below.
