So lots has been going on in the fashion zeitgeist.

I don't think we could do this episode, Tam, without just quickly touching on Australian Fashion Week.

I know we have another episode with Nothing To Wear and Leigh talking about the shows and the different trends.

I wanted to talk particularly about colour trends.

It's always fascinating to me to see what colours are really resonating and prominent.

And looking at what we were predicting to see at Australian Fashion Week.

And it did rain true.

And it's nice to see we're on a very similar vein to the Northern Hemisphere as well.

speaking of Australia versus the rest of the world, but where there was a heavy focus in black, white and neutrals.

I'd almost say 70% of what we saw out there was very neutral palette.

Would you agree with that?

And the colours that we did see, around 20%, really sit within those earthy red clays, Age, Essie, Bianca, Spender, even like a moss green.

And I really like sort of seeing how they sit against... We know we've got Pantone Colour of the Year...

Cloud Dancer, which we'll talk about later on.

iPhone white.

Yeah, so we've got that cloud dance Pantone colour at the moment.

Transformative teal is the WGSN colour of the year.

It's another reference point that we use within trend forecasting to predict colours coming up.

Transformative teal is this sort of like tranquil, peaceful colour, foreshadowing what you're going to be talking about later, Tam.

And then radiant earth is the colour of 2028 for WGSN.
