Style Guide: Lucky colours to wear this CNY 2018, according to your Chinese Zodiac

Finding the perfect Chinese New Year outfit can be tricky. If you’re auspicious (like we are), you’ll want to an outfit ensemble that not only looks great, but makes you feel like you’re stepping into a brand new year on a lucky note.

Which is why this year, we’re looking at our Chinese Zodiac animal for the lucky colours to wear this festive season. Whether you love a chic festive dress you can just throw on, pairing separates (that you can repurpose for different outfits), or are more partial to a traditional cheongsam (that comes in beautiful contemporary silhouettes and designs today), we’ve got you covered.

We’ve curated 12 colour-themed outfits for each zodiac animal to usher you into the new year on a lucky note. So if you’re looking for ideas to create an outfit with all your lucky colours (without looking like a mismatched fashion mishap), browse our gallery above for inspiration!
