The increasingly popular shade has appeared on fashion week catwalks and award season red carpets

In the fashion colour wheel, green has a reputation as ‘tricky’; a colour that clashes with other shades, and with different skin tones. But this year, a particular apple shade has been growing in popularity. It’s been seen on the catwalk and even the red carpet – despite the old adage that red and green should never be seen.

Arriving at Berlin film festival, Pamela Anderson wore a Carolina Herrera apple green wrap with a dress underneath in shades of pink and green. Amal Clooney wore a green Versace dress to a Golden Globes afterparty and Rose Byrne was in green Chanel for the award ceremony. There’s speculation it could be a big colour on the red carpet at the Baftas this Sunday.
