Move over espresso brown, cherry red and butter yellow — emerald green is the colour taking over the collective imagination and all our festive wardrobes. This bright, vivid shade of green is also referred to as ‘Paris green’, ‘imperial green’ or ‘Veronese green’ and, as fashion designer Sanjana Bubber explains, is a jewel tone that is part of the ‘royal’ colour family. “Emerald green is an excellent choice for the festive season because of its rich and sophisticated appearance. It also lends itself well to ethnic and fusion looks,” she adds, warning that styling this statement colour incorrectly can result in your entire look going wrong.
