Nothing combats the drabness of winter like a quick shot of colour. But why choose one when you have a whole rainbow at your disposal? Actress and writer Lena Dunham demonstrated how to sartorially lift spirits this month in a custom Creatures of the Wind gown at the Season 4 premiere of her HBO show, Girls. The multicoloured panelling on the otherwise demure dress revealed that even the most colour-phobic can take part in the trend. More exuberantly, Valentino’s resort 2015 collection included a cacophony of colour, while other designers, including jeweller Sydney Evan, have incorporated Roy G. Biv into their offerings. Talk about a colour spectrum.
