Along with House of Cards, Orange Is The New Blackis reason alone to justify your Netflix subscription. In anticipation of Season 2 (YAY!), we've decided to help you build an orange-hued capsule wardrobe.
Because in a happy coincidence, orange really is the new black this (fashion) season. And before you say/think it, orange is really not as polarising as you think – we happen to be big fans. Just avoid neon (unless it's a swimsuit) and keep the fake tan/costume jewellery to a minimum when you're wearing these orange hits.
No one does cropped sweaters like French label Carven. Save up the pennies for this ribbed one (for extra pleasure)–- it's a tangerine dream.
Ribbed-Knit Cropped Sweater, £350, Carven at MATCHESFASHION.COM
Try an embellished racer-back dress for summer weddings. Orange looks fantastic with a tan, but beware about the fake. Orange dress + orange fake tan takes tonal blocking just a tad too far.

Grapefruit-coloured silk trousers are an unexpected and therefore brilliant option. You'll shine right through the sea of Zara's monochrome patterned pyjama pants.
Straight Leg Silk Trouser, £100, Yolke
The very popular (super-comfortable) Roshe Run sneaks by Nike now come in a bright melon, for trotters that need a colour pop.
Roshe Run Trainers in Orange, £70, Nike at Urban Outfitters
Visit the orange palette through a '90s filter with this button-down dress. It's pretty much the lowest-maintenance cotton dress on the block and therefore v.useful for flights/hungover park-life face-planting.
'90s Skater Dress With Buttons and Short Sleeves, £18.50, ASOS
Our favourite part of the ASHISH X Topshop collaboration is the fluro swimwear. This zingy orange bathing suit plunges at the back, while looking very modest from the front.
Fluro Orange Backless Swimsuit, £45, ASHISH X Topshop
This retro sweater is a great take on the V-neck cricket style that is popping up everywhere. Buy a vintage one in orange and ensure you gats something no one's got.
