     fashion. They also dictate trends and style. For the new Fall/
     Winter 2013-2014 colder season colours are muted and a lot
     softer according to Pantone highlighting the idea of elegance
     and femininity. Fall/Winter 2013-2014 colours are vibrant
     varied, exciting and rich, promising to make your styling a whole
     lot more inspirational than you can imagine.

   Deep Lichen Green-Very close to dark olive and light
   camouflage, deep Lichen Green is the colour of the moss and
   very relevant to khaki, it's the third trendy green for Fall/Winter
   2013-2014 which is a bit complex to wear since it tends to make
