Sage, lavender, salmon, coral or sand have been well-received. Their roots in nature, in which one locates calm and refuge, are ironcast. And yet has the color palette proven very versatile across media, products, and identities, which is a function of its pastel otherworldliness. Fundamentally inclusive—we know how indiscriminately they’d all mingle in an oil spill—pastels now transpose the gentle warmth of beauty, where pastels have always dominated, to more primal, less polluted forms of self-care as well. Natural pastels encourage exercises in mental health and well-being, where they divest from very non-holistic beauty. And they invite an outdoors and lifestyle approach to sports, where they divest from plain gym-going. (Obviously, the result is not so much that the gym would be avoided, as it is that the spirit of nature, incarnated as pastel dress, mat, etc., joins us inside.)
