Four colour stories, twelve shades, one unmistakably Sugarhill mood. Here's where the SS26 palette comes from — and the prints, pieces and Pantones bringing it to life.
Every season at Sugarhill Brighton starts with colour first. For SS26, we built four palettes — sugared pinks, leaf-fresh greens, sun-warmed neutrals and cool, current-pulled blues — each one pinned to a Pantone shade and a mood board of the things that inspired it, from cherry blossom to peacock feathers. Scroll on for the full colour story.
Pinks: Sugared & Sun-kissed
Our pink family runs from powder-soft to full-saturation, taking in everything from grapefruit cocktails to cherry blossom along the way. It's the backbone of the Sugarhill palette for a reason — this season it gets three very different moods.
Our pink family runs from powder-soft to full-saturation, taking in everything from grapefruit cocktails to cherry blossom along the way. It's the backbone of the Sugarhill palette for a reason — this season it gets three very different moods.
Roseate Spoonbill
A soft, dusty pink that's all retro swirls and easy denim. Think grapefruit cocktails, stacked macarons and sprinkle-covered donuts — pretty without trying too hard, and just as comfortable paired with chambray shorts as it is on its own.
Pink Cosmos
The boldest pink in the line-up — a true bubblegum that doesn't dilute. We see it in painted Mediterranean buildings, cosmos flowers in full bloom, and yes, our tech accessories too. Worn head to toe in broderie, it's pure feel-good colour.
Emberglow
Where pink meets coral meets sunset. Emberglow takes its cues from azalea blooms, tulip fields and the inside of a perfectly ripe blood orange. In a candy stripe, it's the warmest, most holiday-ready pink of the season.
Greens: Fresh-cut & Full-grown
From sage to deep forest, the green family brings a botanical calm to SS26. It's matcha bowls, malachite stone and tropical islands seen from above — grounding colour with plenty of depth.
Malachite Green
A muted, mineral-toned green, lifted straight from its namesake stone. Soft enough for a matcha latte, structured enough for a utility boilersuit — this is the easy, everyday shade of the green story.
Twist of Lime
A rich, true olive that sits beautifully against pops of coral and pink — just like our sun-and-leaf print proves. Pulled from rose bouquets gone slightly wild and palm fronds in full sun, it's the most painterly green of the three.
Hunter Green
Deep, glossy and a little dramatic — this is rainforest-canopy green, the colour of an island seen from a plane window. As a swirling, multicoloured print it becomes the statement piece of the whole green family.
Blues: Cool Currents
To round out the palette, blues bring a cooler, calmer note — pulled from peacock feathers, deep water and clear night skies. This is the family that proves Sugarhill colour doesn't always mean warm.
Baja Blue
A soft periwinkle with real personality, borrowed from peacock feathers and fresh blueberries. In a green gingham trouser, it brings just enough colour to a plain white tee without overpowering it.
True Blue
Bold, saturated and architectural — this is the blue of glass skyscrapers and deep crater lakes. As the base of a multicoloured grid print, it gives structure to every other colour in the dress.
Moroccan Blue
A deep, dusky teal-navy, named for its souk-blue inspiration. Think full moons, dark hydrangea petals and the sea at dusk — the most enveloping blue of the season, brightened up here with confetti-bright polka dots.
Neutrals: Sun-baked & Spiced
Not every Sugarhill story is bright — SS26's neutrals lean warm, drawing on coffee, caramel and chocolate for a palette that's grounding without ever going flat.
Crème Brûlée
A warm, sandy beige named, fittingly, after dessert. Think frothy flat whites, caramel ice cream and weathered stone walls — soft and easy enough to carry a leopard print without it ever feeling loud.
Picante
Spiced terracotta with serious warmth — rusted metal, marigold petals and blood orange slices all in one shade. In a palm print shirt dress, it's the colour that makes a holiday wardrobe feel instantly more grown-up.
Cherry Mahogany
The richest neutral of the bunch — deep cocoa with a cherry-red undertone, like melted chocolate or fresh raspberries against dark cacao. Dotted with pink polka dots, it's an unexpectedly playful take on brown.
Twelve shades, four moods, one collection. That's the SS26 colour story — sugared pinks for warmth, fresh greens for calm, sun-baked neutrals for grounding, and cool blues to balance it all out. Wherever you start, there's a Sugarhill shade for it.
