Trend File: Look luminous in radiant orchid!

Whether you’re clad in an orchid outfit or dab the colour on your lips or nails, you are guaranteed to look fresh and feisty.
“Orchids make one’s rooms look so picturesque,” says Oscar Wilde of the flower, in The Picture of Dorian Gray, and what he said 124 years ago still holds true. In fact, it’s not just the flower, but also the colour orchid that can fill the room with picture-perfect splendour. And the shade that tops our list of colours this year is radiant orchid.

Feeling blue? Add some of this luminous shade of lilac to your look and get ready to exude oomph.
Accessories of the colour can make you look dapper for any occasion. You can spruce up your everyday look with a radiant orchid nail colour. Be it radiant orchid converse, loafers or platform heels, you will certainly look fabulous in them.
Radiating grace, elegance and confidence, the colour can give your eyes the pop that they need. It may be difficult to pull off the colour on your lips at first, but if you wear it with the right attitude, you can totally own it.
The colour has been a topper on the fashion runway this season, and some of our favourite celebrities have looked like total knockouts in plain and floral radiant orchid ensembles.
An orchid gemstone can make you look regal.
Don a radiant orchid top with black skinny jeans on your day out or to an event like actor Kristen Bell. Like the diva, make sure to pair your top with a duller shade of pants.
The American Hustle bombshell has been a regular attention grabber on the red carpet. She glows in a floral radiant orchid dress. You can get a top or kameez stitched of a similar print for casual wear. Rising Bollywood star Vaani Kapoor epitomises va-va-voom in this gorgeous radiant orchid gown with cut out detail.
