Say Goodbye To Millennial Pink, Because Purple Is Taking Over

If you, like us, have a color-coded closet, purple likely doesn't have its own dedicated section. Sure, you've got a healthy chunk of white pieces, a good portion of black ones, and maybe a mix of light pinks, beiges, perhaps hint of red or a green. But it's time to make room for a new hue. Because the rumors are coming true: Ultra Violet is in your future.

But the runways at New York Fashion Week are proving we can't escape the trend. From light pastels to deep plums, mauves, and magenta variations, brands like Creatures of Comfort and Brandon Maxwell all embraced the color that's making its presence known.
