Peachy Keane: introducing the sweetest, juiciest color trend of the upcoming season

The new shades of spring are just peachy. Last seen on a ruched puffball skirt and frosted lipstick circa 1986, peach is back for face and body alike. Seen on every catwalk from New York to Milan to Paris, this color of choice for spring was embraced in all its incarnations, from the sweetly sportif zip-up top and short shorts at Chanel Resort, to the retro pantsuits worn with peachy-tanned skin at Luca Luca, to the Daisy Buchanan flapper dresses at Marc Jacobs.

On faces, peach works best with tanned skin or on pale redheads, but it makes its biggest impact on the new faces of beauty: big-eyed, doll-faced models like Lily, Ciara Nugent, and Heather Marks. On these girls, redolent of one of Margaret Keane's innocent paintings, peach is giant in a way that even James (of Giant Peach fame) couldn't imagine.
