We'll be the first to admit that black really does go with everything. It's slimming, effortless, and undoubtedly chic, but a closet devoid of any color can get a little, well ... blah. So we've rounded up the hottest colors that were all over the runway during Fashion Week. Our favorite designers amped things up with bold hues and rainbow-inspired collections that brought us back to our Crayola and Lisa Frank days. Consider this a great excuse to ditch the black, and work some uber-bright shades into your wardrobe.

Juicy tangerine was one of the most popular colors of Fashion Week. Models at Lauren Moffatt wore midi-length dresses with pops of aqua; Jenny Packham's collection was brimming with orange shift dresses and accessories; and Kate Spade featured picnic-perfect tangelo gingham.
Barbie Pink
The unofficial girly-girl shade, Pepto pink definitely made a cheerful statement at Fashion Week. There were tweed jackets and mini skirts at Kate Spade; models wore dramatic Pepto pink eye shadow at Peter Som; and Oscar de la Renta's show was an ode to all things frilly and feminine with shocking pink bows and delicate lace.
