Blue is Making A HUGE COMEBACK
Written by Kai Voorhees
From the runways of New York to everyday streetwear, one color dominated this season: blue. I have seen this in the real world too. I don’t know about you, but I can’t go anywhere without seeing someone wearing at least one blue statement piece.
Since New York Fashion week just recently concluded, let’s take a look at some common themes I noticed.
We saw many models walking Coach wear everything from blue blazers and dresses to blue sneakers. They especially had a lot of denim blue. Pairing jeans with blazers was a common theme throughout the shows.

Sergio Hudson displayed many different blue dresses showing just how classy blue can be.
Cobalt blue seems to be the hottest type of blue right now. Paris Hilton was spotted in Cobalt blue at the beginning of the year. This seemed to only be the beginning of the fashion world's obsession with blue this year.
At the BAFTA Awards there were a lot of celebrities feeling blue. The event, which took place on February 22, 2026, had many celebrities wearing blue. Celebrities including Jessie Buckley, Carey Mulligan, and Erin Doherty, wore blue.

Want to join the trend? Here’s a few simple ways to style blue this year.
For any streetwear style, try the viral “sandwich method”. That means matching your shoes to your top for a perfectly balanced outfit. A blue shirt or hoodie paired with some cool blue shoes is the perfect match. Or opt for a blue coat or sweater over a simple monochrome outfit for a pop of color.
Want to look like you’re walking for Coach? The denim jeans with a black blazer is the perfect way to make a lasting impression in any setting.
From the red carpet at the BAFTA’s, to streetwear in everyday life, blue has earned its spot in seemingly everyone’s closet. So, how will you wear it?
