Global colour authority Pantone named Peach Fuzz — ”a velvety gentle peach whose all-embracing spirit enriches mind, body, and heart” — as its colour of the year for 2024.

Said to be a “heartfelt peach hue bringing a feeling of tenderness and communicating a message of caring and sharing, community and collaboration,” this uplifing shade has not only been spotted on the likes of Rihanna, Florence Pugh and Zoë Kravitz, it has also been translated into flowy silhouettes, tailored separates and sumptuous textures on the runways of Chanel, Jil Sander, Balmain and more.

What better way to embrace ‘Peach Fuzz’ than to wear it? Ahead, all the runway inspo you need to rock the trending colour, plus where to shop.
