An overview of Pre-Fall 2026 color trends, featuring sophisticated combinations and key hues from various designers.
As FashionUnited reported in early December, Pantone has named a luminous, ethereal white called ‘Cloud Dancer’ as its Color of the Year for 2026. The Spring/Summer 2026 runways have already confirmed a strong direction toward head-to-toe white looks. By contrast, when the pre-fall collections arrive in stores around June, selling floors are set to shift dramatically, erupting into color.
Designers showed a clear appetite for sophisticated palettes, often layering two, three, or even more hues within a single look. It also underscored the role certain colors are set to play in Fall/Winter 2026, notably deep reds ranging from burgundy to oxblood, alongside browns spanning from pale, earthy tones to rich, dark chocolate shades, often off-set by a bright orange. Here are ten examples from the Pre-Fall 26 season.
