It's called Color-blocking and it's everywhere. I'm not sure I like it, not because of the boldness, (if you know me you know I'm not afraid of boldness), but because of the color palettes. Lots of primary colors. I'm not a big fan of primary colors, they seem a bit flat to me. The many fashion shows in New York and now in Paris, had color-blocking, and it seemed that flatness was what the designers were trying to achieve. No question marks, a blue is a blue! and a red is a red!
