Monde’s Guide to Wearing Pastel Shades in Autumn
Who said pastels are just for spring?
With the warm weather well and truly behind us, that doesn't mean we’re turning our attention away from all things pastel-coloured. From soft greens, blues and yellows to lilac and pink, there’s a pastel piece for any wardrobe.
Words By Ruby Staley
Minty Green
Best worn in a silky-satin material, this pale green hue is this season’s pastel underdog. Don’t underestimate the power of a great soft green in a monochromatic outfit, particularly as we head into the festive season. Wear this eye-catching colour in a muted tone in a range of pieces from a slinky Maison Margiela satin maxi dress, Maggie Marilyn puffed shoulder number or a Bec and Bridge mini dress for a more cocktail appropriate look.

Mellow Yellow
Yellow truly is the colour of summer. Say hello to the sunny season with a piece of clothing and matching accessory in the bright hue. Style the pastel trend with a toned down yellow cocktail dress form Manning Cartel with an ASOS DESIGN padded headband and a pair of & Other Stories square toed sandals for a stylishly sunny look.

Lavender Love
Here at Monde, we’ve been going crazy over lavender all season long. From the global fashion week runways to the streets, lilac hues in all shapes and forms have been taking over. We suggest styling up this pastel lavender trend with Harmur’s open-back silk satin halterneck top with Faithfull The Brand’s linen wide-leg pants and ASOS Design’s resin rectangle hair clips for an outfit that is both fun and oozes sophistication.

Sky Blue
As the sky gets bluer, so too does our new season must-haves. Choose from a selection of soft cobalt and light cerulean toned pieces from some of our favourite retailers including Boohoo, ASOS, Emilio Pucci and Adidas. Play with blue pastel tones and pair The Row’s leather sandals with Forcast’s sleeveless dress because prove that blue is more than just denim.

Pretty in Pale Pink
Step into summer dressing with blush-toned wardrobe pieces. Some of our favourite brands including ASOS, Alexander Wang, Loewe and BWDLR are taking the heavy lifting out of styling this trend – offering you a variety of pastel pink pieces to mix into your outfits. Pair Missguided’s fun pink utility playsuit with Acne Studios Pink Mustang sunglasses for the ultimate rosy ensemble.
