There's been a lot of talk, both in fashion and interiors, about powder blue being the color for spring 2026. It's not a groundbreaking shade for this time of year – it leans toward a pastel, after all – but there’s a very specific tone of powder blue that’s gaining traction not just as a trend, but as an enduring color with staying power beyond the changing season.
The perfect example of this muted, cool, lived-in blue is one of Farrow & Ball's best sellers: Parma Gray. Falling somewhere between pale sky and powder blue, it’s an enduringly classic hue that’s long been loved for its transitional qualities. It has been featured as the backdrop to numerous costume dramas because of its heritage feel, but it's also the perfect tone for the cool blue color trend that is on the rise in 2026.
