Kerry Washington Wore an Unexpected Color Combo That's So Fresh for Summer
Without a doubt, I get the most mileage out of the neutral pieces in my closet. Simple colors like black, white, and beige go with everything and can be styled in a million ways. However, I also love color and enjoy experimenting with different hues, particularly in the summer. It just feels right to wear something cheerful when the sun's out. If you're ready to expand your horizons and try an unexpected color combo this season, Kerry Washington has a fantastic idea for you.
Photographed at Ralph Lauren's fall/holiday 2024 collection event in New York City this week, Washington wore two colors I hadn't thought of combining: emerald green and deep purple. Thanks to Kerry, I'm officially looking to add these hues to my wardrobe this year. Scroll down to see her spectacular Ralph Lauren outfit and shop pieces to re-create the look.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 13 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
