We saw parma violet at Victoria Beckham, lemon sorbet layer at Hermes and pistachio tiers at SiesMarjan. These pastel trends have been seen in pastel suits, ruffled dresses, oversized coats, fitted jackets. Ice cream pastel colours have been a spring favourite for years but this time there is less rules.
