Zara Just Gave Us a Hint at the Biggest Color Trends of Spring 2026
We can always count on Zara to bring us the new-season trends before everyone else, and as it slowly teases out its new spring arrivals, I'm already spotting some standout styles that I know will be on every cool fashion person once spring hits. Today, I'm homing in on color trends because nothing transitions our wardrobes into a new season quite like a fresh color palette. Zara's latest arrivals are already hinting at the hues that are about to be huge in just a few months. Included in the mix are the bold and bright primary colors we saw all over the spring 2026 runways along with some fresh hues—think icy blue and candy pink.
For a chic and easy way to get into the spring mood, keep scrolling below to see Zara's prediction of spring 2026's biggest color trends that you can already shop online.
Tomato
Bold primary colors had a huge presence in the spring/summer 2026 collections, and among them was bright and bold tomato red. Designers such as Chanel, Stella McCartney, and Loewe all backed the joyful color, so it's not surprising we're now seeing it dominate at Zara. Get your hands on a chic V-neck, polo sweater, or a pair of ballet flats to lean into the color trend.
Cobalt Blue
In accordance with the bold and bright primary colors that are in the spotlight this spring, vibrant cobalt blue is set to become one of the most popular. We're seeing the head-turning hue adorn everything from layering tops to flats and dresses. Style it with neutral pieces such as a tan jacket or beige pants.
Icy Blue
If you prefer a softer blue hue this season, then spring 2026's icy hues should not be overlooked. Lighter than traditional blues yet more pigmented than creams or whites, icy blue sits in that sweet spot: not quite baby blue, not quite neutral—just crisp, clean and fresh. The color trend was spotted all over the spring runways, and the fashion set has been quick to embrace the chic color.
Cloud Dancer
Cloud Dancer has been named Pantone's Color of the Year for 2026—an airy, cloud-like white that feels particularly apt as we head into 2026 with a fresh perspective and clean palette. It's a hue I've spotted all over Zara's site in the form of soft sweaters, jackets, and jeans.
Tobacco Brown
It's essential to have a neutral hue to ground your spring outfits, and this season we're seeing rich tobacco brown hues do the job. From trench coats to pants and sneakers, this is an easy color to add into your existing wardrobe.
Candy Pink
From soft power blazers to boho ruffles, strikingly chic candy-pink pieces ruled the runways of Stella McCartney, Patou, N°21, and Blumarine, to name but a few, bringing us an undeniably fresh, pretty, and romantic shade to add to our spring outfits.
