I wouldn’t go so far as to say that the reign of red is over, but I think we can all agree that it’s been a very long reign, and people are desperate for a new statement-making hue to add a pop of color to their outfits. (Sorry, butter yellow — you’re not making a statement.) The S/S 26 runways were full of bold colors, and Lili Reinhart wore one of them in the form of several accessories to complement her otherwise muted outfit.
The color I’m referring to is acid green, which was featured prominently at Prada, Tibi, and Versace, among many others. Reinhart wore a full look from Tory Burch’s Resort 2026 collection. With her jeans, gray sweater and luxury cognac leather coat, she wore an acid green scarf that wrapped tightly around the neck like a turtleneck, and a satin acid green bag and wedge heels. Like red, acidic green provides a strong contrast with many colors, so it goes with everything as well as it goes with nothing.
In my opinion, it’s never too early to incorporate acid green into your wardrobe, so keep scrolling for inspiration and shopping a handful of eye-catching items to get a head start on the major 2026 color trend.
