Fall 2009 NYFW trends: Color pop

The fancy crystals and embroideries of seasons past may have been stripped away, but luxury lives on for fall in vivid fluorescent color. A trend that started on the street, it's now filtered up to the runway with Michael Kors' sporty, traffic-cone-orange sweater and fox fur coat, Narciso Rodriguez's acid-yellow bandage dress and Marc Jacobs' electric-blue scuba-inspired poncho. A pop of color is all you need to liven up the neutrals in your wardrobe. No cash for flash? Hit the drugstore and pick up some neon lipstick or nail polish instead. Viva the 1980s. — Booth Moore Marc Jacobs More in Image: • Newer generation of designers energizes the runways • Fall 2009 NYFW trends: Color pop • Fall 2009 NYFW trends: Lean lines • Fall 2009 NYFW trends: A call to arms • Fall 2009 NYFW trends: Surface effects • Fall 2009 NYFW trends: Pegged pants • Fall 2009 NYFW trends: Urban Warrior
