Here’s How to Style Last Season's Popular Rich Color Trend in 70° Weather.
I understand that reflecting on the harsh weather from last season can be challenging, but it did bring one positive outcome: a stylish color trend to embrace. The standout color of the colder months was chocolate brown. Pantone named Mocha Mousse as the 2025 Color of the Year, and the fall/winter 2026 collections from brands such as Gucci, Hermès, and Tory Burch prominently included chocolate brown. You might wonder why I’m discussing fall and winter—it's because chocolate brown continues to be relevant in the trend cycle. It's also set to shine this spring.
Fashion-forward individuals are wholeheartedly embracing deep, luxurious chocolate brown for spring, even in warmer temperatures around 70°. Halle Berry recently showcased this color trend with a complete monochromatic look. This approach is an excellent way to incorporate the trend without overcomplicating it. Berry layered a cardigan over a bias-cut slip dress and complemented it with pointed-toe pumps. She added a silver heart-locket necklace and trendy bug-eyed sunglasses. This ensemble works well for both day and night, and her mix of knit and satin within a single-color outfit displays thoughtful styling. She exudes effortless chicness, making chocolate brown a perfect choice for spring and summer.
If you’re inspired to incorporate more chocolate brown into your spring wardrobe, continue reading to replicate Berry's monochromatic style.
