Spotting trends is one of our favorite pastimes, especially when it correlates with what’s happening on the runways. Our latest finding is slightly unexpected: rainbow stripes. That’s right, ladies are sporting this cheerful pattern just as the sun is starting tuck behind the clouds for the next several months, and we have a sneaking suspicion that’s in large part to the S/S 16 runway collections. Brands like Chloé, Gucci, and Missoni showed bold colors reminiscent of rainbows, and we bet these fashion insiders are already inspired by the cheerful trend. Scroll down to see what we mean, and if you want to enliven your winter wardrobe, shop our picks!
