Second of our A/W 23/24 Colour sneak peeks is our Second of our A/W 23/24 Colour sneak peeks is our Wasteland trend.

As the need for non-renewable sources deepens, we imagine a dystopian land of survival in a post climate crisis world. We seek to protect ourselves and fight against it with anarchic fervour, while disturbing aesthetics and unexpected beauty emerge from the toxicity. Blackened and dirty hues of glossy Crude Oil and Deep Swamp combine with sulphurous Toxic Yellow.

See more from this trend, including cultural drivers inspiring this trend, on our stories later today. USP subscribers see our correlating Design Direction reports on the site for each colour trend, covering fashion, beauty and lifestyle.

Is this the future of retail? • As shopping and Is this the future of retail? • As shopping and digital experiences threaten to take over from IRL retail, injecting humour, creativity and fun is vital.

The new @marni store in Milan does just this, reinvigorating it’s store interior to revive physical engagement and creative inspiration. The 3-floor flagship, unveiled during @milan.design.week, featured playful details and a colourful and furry installation conceptualised by @shoplifterart. Reflective silver clad walls and ceilings and fluid clothes railings are punctuated with neon lights and bright flowers and vintage modular seating for a futuristic retro aesthetic. The spotlight is taken by the interiors but this only accentuates the clothes, creating an inspiring space to shop.

We talked about this a lot back in our A/W 22/23 Macro trend reports - USP subscribers see this and our S/S 23 & A/W 23/24 Macro reports on our site for more info. Link in bio.

Keep and eye out as we share weekly sneak peeks fr Keep and eye out as we share weekly sneak peeks from our A/W 23/24 Colour Trends, first up is our Edible trend!

The role of consumption enters a new era which sees frivolity and humour combine with conscience and awareness of wastefulness. A renewed appreciation for food sees us create with it, wear it and celebrate its imperfections. While new attitudes to food waste and fermentation see subversive approaches, as we find beauty in the parts of nature often rejected or preconceived as ugly. Compost and decay become artistic expressions and a celebration of colour.

Colour Blocked • Baovan, the first bao restauran Colour Blocked • Baovan, the first bao restaurant in Valencia, has been designed by @weareclapstudio to reflect the city’s beachside culture and the adventurousness of travel. The colourful dining interior embodies the surf-and-explore lifestyle of @baovanfoodxp founders, using colour to divide the space into three areas: a ‘forest’ – a ceilinged porch with hanging ropes symbolizing dense vegetation – a beach, and its sunset.
