Viral ‘colour analysis’ trend now available at Cheshire Oaks Designer Outlet

It’s part of The Great Dress Up summer series.

Daisy Jackson Daisy Jackson - 5th May 2024

Cheshire Oaks Designer Outlet is preparing for summer with a series of brilliant fashion events – including jumping on the colour analysis craze. 

The viral sensation which helps people to dress in their most flattering colours is now heading to the popular shopping destination. 

Free consultations with expert colourists will tell you your ‘colour season’ and whether you’re warm or cool toned, pointing out the colours that will make your face quite literally light up. 

Then armed with your new-found appreciation for your own favourite colour, you can browse a rail of pre-selected clothing from Pinko, Reiss and many other brands, or head out shopping around the many other brands based at Cheshire Oaks Designer Outlet. 

It’s all part of The Great Dress Up campaign running this spring/summer, which celebrates fun childhood memories of playing dress-up.

Colour analysis is a trend which has taken over TikTok, designed to assign individuals with their most flattering colours based on complexations, skin tones and other factors.

People can learn the dos and don’ts of colour at Cheshire Oaks with Kate Harrison and EWA. 

The 20 minute one-to-one consultations will take place within the beautiful Spring Garden opposite Under Armour.

Shoppers can sit back and relax while more than 30 different fabric swatches are draped across your shoulders to determine your perfect colour palette. 

Free expert talks will help you to learn about the importance of knowing your colours and what they mean for your style. 

There are bounce back vouchers to the stores involved in the event as well as goodie bags containing a gift bag with colour swatches and more treats.

‘Manny’s Loudest’ brunch event returns this month with live performances and DJ sets

Daisy Jackson Daisy Jackson

A brunch event that showcases Manchester’s vast musical talent is returning to the city this month for its second instalment. 

Manny’s Loudest, created by Loud__Mcr who provide a platform for untapped talent, will again be helping artists to kick-start their careers over the bank holiday weekend. 

Alongside live performances and DJ sets, there’ll be food served up by NamFuzion, which blends Vietnamese and Jamaican grill.

The first Manny’s Loudest event in February pulled in 500 people, and organisers are hoping to push this even further for part two on 26 May.

It will all be taking place at the Manchester Recording Studios in Hulme, which has a capacity of 600.

Mervin and his team will be creating an immersive audience experience around the DJ decks, which Mervin describes as ‘a niche that can be scaled into the modern day talent show but with a party twist to it’.

And every penny made from Loud__Mcr’s brunch event is put back into the process, acquiring mainstream headliners to perform and become part of their community. 

It means that up-and-coming and undiscovered talent can perform on the same stage as experienced artists, providing an unparalleled platform and a chance to learn from those who have been in the industry for longer. 

Loud__Mcr are proud to be providing artists with a chance to show their creative work, but also offering a supportive community. 

Event organisers are also looking for any possible sponsor opportunities to help promote the event.

Manny’s Loudest will take place at Manchester Recording Studios in Hulme (3 Archway, Birley Fields, M15 5QJ) on 26 May. You can get your tickets here, and follow @Loud__mcr on Instagram for updates.

Tala, a popular British athleisure brand famed for its flattering range of womenswear, has officially launched in Selfridges. 

The fashion label has opened a pop-up in the Trafford Centre today, showcasing a selection of its beautiful clothing and accessories.

Tala has built up a loyal following thanks to collections like DayFlex, Sculpt Seamless, Signature Sweats, and 365 Sculpting Lounge, much of which will be available to browse inside Selfridges. 

It’s the first time Tala has ever had a physical retail presence, launching in all four Selfridges stores across the country (including Manchester’s two department stores at the Trafford Centre and Exchange Square). 

The pop-up space at Selfridges Trafford Centre has been decorated with soft neutral colours, halo lighting, and plants.
