When Pantone releases its colour of the year, the fashion world respectfully obliges. In 2014, Sephora sold out of Orchid coloured lipstick in an hour! And it is no coincidence that Pantone had stated Orchid as the colour of the year. This is why we are giving you five good reasons to wear Marsala this season.

The Colour is Equally Appealing to Both Genders

Marsala is a flavourful and stirring shade, and it’s perfect for both women and men. It encourages experimentation and colour creativity. So if you are one of those people who define their own fashion parameters, then this colour falls right into your domain. You can determine your own level of wine-integration in your wardrobe. Whether you want a head-to-toe Marsala look or wish to just add a dash of the colour paired with other complementary colours, the options are endless.

It Flatters All Skin Tones

Wine colour, since times unknown, has been the “go-to” colour for fashion lovers. This subtle colour looks just as good on fair complexions as it does on darker ones. It also provides flatteringly enormous highlight for the cheeks, lips, nails and even hair. There are so many ways you can, in the subtlest of ways, add drama to your ensemble by adding a dash of wine to it. This dramatic, yet grounding colour, can easily be carried by women of all skin tones flawlessly.

It Looks Good as Daywear and Strikingly Amazing For Formal Wear

Marsala is a great colour to be carried in your daywear. You can invest in a good handbag or a rich wine coloured cardigan for the holiday season.  And when it comes to formal wear, almost all fashion week ramps have already been swamped with Marsala coloured gowns, dresses and suits. If you’re looking for something in matte finish, then Marsala shows off its organic nature whereas adding a little sheen adds a dollop of luxury and glamour.

It is the Colour for All Seasons

Unlike most colours, Marsala is not restricted to specific seasons. The colour is bold enough to be carried during the hot seasons as well as deep enough to enhance your winter wardrobe. So if you are not a seasonal shopper, or if weather stays pretty consistent where you live, then Marsala will help you stay in fashion all year round!

Because You Just Can’t Go Wrong With It!

The chances are, you have already started going through online fashion stores to look for the right Marsala coloured outfit for yourself. But if you are still a little hesitant, then let us assure you- you simply cannot go wrong with this colour of the season. Everybody who matters in the fashion scene is flaunting wine colour in style, and there is no reason why you should stay behind. Whether you opt for a pair of pants or go all out for a full-length gown, the colour has the magical ability to add instant glam your ensemble and your personality.
