Is neon still in style in 2021?
Balenciaga certainly didn’t shy away from neon in the label’s Resort 2021 collection, which saw pops of punchy pink, neon green and bold blue featuring heavily, and Balmain’s pink and lime neon suits stole the show in the SS21 show.
The Attico’s bright green and orange mules also sold out fast after being seen on Kylie Jenner and Hailey Bieber this year, proving we definitely still have an appetite for fluorescent fashion.
