It's time to wave goodbye to autumnal navy, grey and oxblood, and make way for tangerine, canary and lime, as this spring calls for a cacophony of colour. Whether you look to Dulux's shade of the season or the primary colours from your childhood paintbox, no hue is off-limits.
This season hot pink played out at Valentino, Hermès and Marni, carrot took centre stage at Max Mara, Givenchy and Bottega Veneta, and we clocked cobalt at Pringle of Scotland, Rochas and Salvatore Ferragamo.
While some of the looks were presented in head-to-toe colour-blocking, there were advocates for unusual colour-clashing, too. Green and orange went hand-in-hand at Mary Katrantzou, while Issey Miyake sent lilac and fuchsia down the catwalk.
We've never been believers in fashion "rules" (in our opinion, pink and red, and black and navy make fabulous bedfellows), but this spring it's time to max out the colour spectrum. Click through to see how the stylish set is working colourful brights on Instagram.
Jeanette Madsen's sunshine yellow Bottega Veneta shirt dress is the epitome of spring against that fuchsia backdrop.
This is how you do spring workwear. Tamu McPherson's Rosie Assoulin peplum trousers look so '70s with her extreme platforms.
Megan Ellaby wears green without veering into St. Patrick's Day territory.
We're seriously digging Erika Bowes' silky tangerine dream of a knotted shirt.
Mathilde's gingham Monki trousers offset her '80s Norwegian Vintage top nicely.
Pink and white are two of spring's freshest colours. Team with embellished sliders, like Freja Wewer.
We're thrilled to say head-to-toe pink is going nowhere – make like Sofie and pair your pink suit with a matching roll neck.
Charlie Barker is the queen of colour and here she's gone full clash with a cute Coach shark jumper and vintage trousers. Her sweet neckerchief ties the look together.
Bella aka Internet Girl knows how to do superhero colours – her Kermit trousers offset her flash of red hair and purple velvet rucksack. POW!
When the weather isn't playing ball, follow Vanessa Hong's lead and bring your own sunshine (your go-to summer colour). Stop it from being too nice with a leather jacket and strong shades.
Red alert, red alert: Aimee Song's two-piece is giving us festival fever.
Tahmina Begum's entire wardrobe is a mashup of bright colours but her working of electric blue and gold here is genius. Topped off with tinted specs, of course.
More mellow yellow from Kia Marie. The simple addition of kicks and a denim jacket makes this throw-it-on-and-go perfection.
Lady in red Shope Delano handmade this textured off-the-shoulder top, but the high street is packed with Bardot-style pieces for spring.
Andria's Max Mara suit is electric cool and office-appropriate (just add trainers and statement earrings).
Lisa Folawiyo's top-to-bottom Balenciaga get-up (recreated straight from the catwalk) is the 2017 way to wear pink. Her turquoise earrings and simple black handbag keep all eyes on the outfit.
Another DIY piece, this time from Miranda Makaroff, who hand-painted this technicolour denim jacket. We're off to buy acrylics...
Ava's neon yellow jacket is ideal for transitional spring weather. We love her cyberspace boots and belt chain, too.
Micaéla Verrelien's ASOS double denim drop pays homage to music videos of the '90s, and is our new go-to weekend wear.
ASOS Insider Lotte matches her boxy denim to TfL's overground and rounds it off with '90s Kurt Cobain sunnies.
