On the other hand, several designers departed from using conventional fall color palettes by creating looks that incorporated pastel colors. In particular, two or three shades of green were used to anchor the looks and give them a fresh edge. Coordinated or clashing colors associated with the green tones, included neutrals, pinks, lilacs and ochre shades.

When these clothes drop in stores during August and September, we will be nearing the end of the 2024 American presidential campaign. That, along with the wars in Europe and The Middle East has created a feeling of generalized anxiety across the western world. Because green is associated with nature, it is thought that it can evoke feelings of tranquility and relaxation, reduce stress and promote a calm feeling.

Here are ten looks from the FW24 season that used shades of green to good effect.
