We've reached the point in the year at which it's not that abnormal to start thinking about fall color trends. After all, the first of the back-to-school commercials will probably arrive in a matter of weeks if not days. And yes, the most forward-thinking fashion people among us are already starting to wear fall trends, including Dua Lipa, who is currently in Paris attending the Haute Couture Week shows.
Given that it was rainy and didn't even reach 70 degrees today in Paris, it's not that surprising to see that Dua Lipa wore a fur-trimmed leather coat to dinner last night. But the first thing I noticed about the outfit is the color combination she chose: chocolate brown and lilac. Her Chloé outfit consisted of the aforementioned coat (which was chocolate brown) and a pale lilac slip dress, also from the brand. We already all know and love the chocolate brown trend, which isn't going anywhere, and lilac is the powder pink-adjacent trend that was all over the F/W 25 runways. As Dua Lipa proved, the combination of the two is a match made in heaven and will be the perfect pairing to make the summer-to-fall wardrobe transition.
Scroll on to see it for yourself on Dua Lipa and a few of the F/W 25 runways, and shop standout chocolate brown and lilac pieces to wear together.
