Introducing the most glorious colour. The one I’ve been wearing all summer. Is it cobalt?

Sapphire? Yves Klein? Or could it be ‘Blue, blue, electric blue’ the colour of David Bowie’s 1970’s room… Take your pick. This vibrant shade has superb mood-boosting properties and the ability to enhance any outfit.

Keep it classic by teaming cobalt with brilliant white, try a raspberry pink or soft burgundy contrast (a la Roksanda) – and who doesn’t love the combination of indigo and burnt orange?

Cobalt is the colour of a beautiful summer sky, and it is joyful. I’m into the blue.

More blue, for you:
