Why L'Oreal Professionnel's Gourmand Browns Are the Colour of 2025
The premise is simple enough. Brown - long dismissed as a default - is having a rebrand. Jun 05, 2025 In a year where 'natural' is a strategy, not a compromise, L'Oréal Professionnel is betting on brown. More specifically, Gourmand Browns. A spectrum of shades named and nuanced like dessert menus: mocha mousse, cinnamon glaze, burnt caramel, chocolate fondant. The palette draws directly from Pantone's 2025 colour of the year - Mocha Mousse - but grounds it in heat, texture, and technique. The premise is simple enough. Brown - long dismissed as a default - is having a rebrand. Gourmand Browns bring together depth and dimension, worn glossy or matte, through balayage, root melt or a full-head transformation. It's being shaped in salons as a tactile, expressive craft - one that draws from regional palettes and client nuance. In Egypt, salons like Kriss Beauty and hair colourists such as Mohamed Gaber, and Ziad & Majd are anchoring the trend with their own interpretations. Each colourist builds on the campaign with fluency in tone, undertone, and technique - translating brown into something calibrated, specific, and unmistakably current. At the root of it all is INOA, L'Oreal Professionnel's ammonia-free, oil-based colour line - known for its 100% grey hair coverage and 48% more shine properties. Beauty has always been borrowed from food - MAC's Spiced Chocolate, Fenty's Honey Waffles, Glossier's Berry Balm. Gourmand Browns doesn't stop at the reference point. It deepens it, recasting colour as an atmosphere: warm, wearable, and sensorial.

Nushrratt Bharuccha's Monsoon Glam Features Sequins And Mocha Mousse Glam
Last Updated: Nushrratt Bharuccha recently took to her Instagram to share pictures of her latest look. She opted for a body-hugging brown dress that was adorned with sequins. Actor Nushrratt Bharuccha is currently basking in the love and praise that she received for her performance in Chhorii 2. As she basks in the success, she recently took to her social media to share pictures of her latest look. Her latest look combined the magic of monsoon with the Colour Of The Year – Mocha Mousse. Taking to her Instagram, Nushrratt Bharuccha shared a series of pictures of herself in a brown bodycon dress. She had worn the dress to a recent award show. The post gave her fans a close-up view of her ensemble. The pictures showed the actor striking some glamorous poses as she posed against the backdrop of the rain. Sharing the pictures, she wrote, 'Hi, Nice to meet you! I'm Melody. And you are?" Take a closer look at Nushrratt's OOTD here. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Nushrratt Bharuccha (@nushrrattbharuccha) For her recent look, Nushrratt exuded confidence and high-octane glamour in a striking brown bodycon dress. She chose a shimmering sequin piece from House of CB that hugged her silhouette perfectly, catching the light with a liquid-metal finish. Featuring a square neckline and thick shoulder straps, the ensemble blended structure with sensual elegance. For the glam, she channelled monsoon glam as she sported slicked-back, middle-parted hair that enhanced the dramatic and drenched vibe. She defined her eyes with a shimmering brown soft smokey eye, a nude shade on the lips, and a dewy base. Swapping traditional black or metallics for a rich, chocolate hue, the look offered a fresh take on red carpet glamour. The actor found herself in a soup when a video of her moving a girl aside at the Lakme Fashion Week went viral. Speaking to Yuvaa, she cleared the air and said, 'She wasn't even a model – she was one of the designers, one of the children from the NIF class, jisko ramp show, centre stage nahi pata tha. Kya karoon main? She was standing in the centre, there was loud music, and mujhe piche se bola gaya tha, 'Aap aapni jagah pe jake khade hojao.' Aur kaise jagah banau? How do I do it? Forget being a showstopper—any model who walks knows that she walks to centre stage, then turns and walks back. Woh toh basic hai." On the work front, reports mention that Nushrratt will star in a Rohit Shetty thriller film.

I'm a size 14 and 5ft 10 – I've found the perfect tummy-friendly summer dress that's as comfy as a tracksuit & costs £20
THEY are part and parcel of summer, but can be less than forgiving on curvier women. However, one fashion fan has said she's found the perfect summer dress for anyone who's self-conscious of their figure, and it's only £20. 6 A fashion fan has shared her top summer buys from Peacocks Credit: TikTok/@user604251860 6 Due to being made of thick jersey, it's super flattering on the tummy Credit: TikTok/@user604251860 6 The £20 dress also comes in red Credit: TikTok/@user604251860 Not only that, but the patterned midi dress is so comfortable that it's like wearing a tracksuit. Peacocks As an added bonus, the £25 dress is currently reduced to just £20 on the Peacocks website. "It's a great summer dress and also wearable because here you've got thicker straps," she said, referring to the fact you can easily wear a bra underneath without the straps showing. Read more Style stories "You've got a thicker jersey so it doesn't cling to your tummy." And there are also buttons at the front that don't undo - meaning they won't gape even if you're top heavy. The dress also comes in red and white, and is also incredibly comfy in the hot weather. "This dress, because of the fact that it's jersey and very comfortable, means you can just put this on whenever," she added. Most read in Fabulous "It feels like you're wearing a tracksuit version of a dress." She also explained she'd sized up because of her height, but said you might not need to do that if you're not on the taller side. I tried two fabulous new dresses from Dunnes Stores, they're perfect for special occasions and great value- "Either way, it's a fab dress!" she concluded. And it wasn't the only dress she fell in love with as part of the haul. There was also a white one that caught her eye, thanks to its strappy top and billowing skirt - which, once again, hides the tummy area. It also has pockets - a feature everyone appreciates! Next up was a patterned number with a "loose fit", that comes with a matching belt if you want to cinch it in at the waist. "I love this one!" she gushed. Hottest fashion trends of 2025 Fabulous' Fashion Editor Clemmie Fieldsend shares the biggest trends from the high street. The East/West Bag Baguette bags have had a good run, after returning from the 1990s' shoulders of Sarah Jessica Parker to modern-day fashion icons, like Hailey Bieber. In 2025, the East/West bag is a similar but elongated shape and has long, thin straps that are easy to throw over your shoulder. They've been on runway models' arms at nearly ever designer show - think Burberry, Givenchy and Bottega Veneta - and are hitting the high street now, too. Powder pink Bright fuchsia pink had its day after the release of Barbie in 2023 and now the more polished and expensive-looking pale shade is taking over for 2025. Pantone may say that it's the year of Mocha Mousse, but the catwalks say otherwise! From Prada to Erdem, the subtle look was all over the spring/summer catwalks, worn head-to-toe or on its own. If the sugary shade is too girly for you, then look to sharp suiting for a androgynous take on the colour. The shell jacket The '80s classic is back, but with a sleek and minimal new twist for 2025. We all know we're likely to see rain for most of spring, so your practical coat of choice should be a cagoule jacket. Depop revealed one of its big trend predictions for this year is retro sportswear, with surges already seen in '80s windbreakers'. Seen everywhere from the stylish streets of Copenhagen to the Miu Miu catwalk, now mums who have an emergency raincoat crumpled underneath their pushchair are very much in fashion! The turn-up jeans While the shape of jeans remains the same for this year and barrel-legs will still be everywhere, the way we're styling them is different. This season, transform your wide-leg, baggy denims into turn-ups. For this look, size doesn't matter, so while deep turn-ups are a hit from jean trend-leaders Citizens of Humanity, a slight fold is still just as good - but only as it's just one single fold. Peep-toe shoe Get your pedicures booked in sharpish, as this season your toes are the main event. After a long hiatus, the peep-toe has been welcomed back into the fashion fold, with brands like Hermes, Miu Miu and Tory Burch showing plain and embellished footwear in this style. From mules to pumps and clogs (yes, clogs will be around too!), there are lots of different styles that are set to sweep the high street. Sheer blouses See-through looks have always lived on the catwalk, but have rarely filtered into everyday life - until now. Designers Ralph Lauren and Tom Ford loved sheer looks on their S/S '25 catwalks and M&S even had sellout success with its black sheer pencil skirt last season. Expect to see more sheer looks lining supermarket aisles and high street shops in the form of skirts, tops and frocks. "These new summer dresses at Peacocks are the perfect choice," the video was captioned. And people in the comments section insisted they'd been easily influenced by the video - and shot to the website to place their orders. "I saw your video and went and bought the black dress with fitted top," one wrote. "I love it!" "I got a lovely dress from here," another insisted. "I just got the 14 in black, I love it!" a third agreed. "I ordered the red," someone else said. As another wrote: "I love Peacocks!" 6 This dress is really flattering too, and comes with a belt if you want to cinch it in Credit: TikTok/@user604251860 6 While this white dress was another of her favourites Credit: TikTok/@user604251860 6 It even has pockets - a much loved feature among fashion fans Credit: TikTok/@user604251860

Last Updated: For her latest look, Sonali Bendre stunned in an off-the-shoulder brown fringe dress. She complemented the dress with a soft bronzed makeup look. Actor Sonali Bendre is known for leaving her fans stunned with her feminine and graceful style. Recently, the actor took a bold step when she stepped out in a dramatic fringe dress. The brown ensemble was the right blend of drama and style. Moreover, the brown shade was the perfect nod to the colour of the year – Mocha Mousse. Taking to her Instagram, Sonali Bendre shared a series of pictures of herself in a brown dress. She was seen posing on her balcony with Mumbai's stormy skyline in the background. Additionally, the sky also twinned with her and made the perfect setting for some Insta-worthy snaps. Sharing the pictures, Sonali wrote, 'The sky was the main character!" Take a look at Sonali's OOTD here. Sonali opted for a striking fringe dress by designer Mac Duggal. The rich brown ensemble came with an off-shoulder neckline and a form-fitting bodice that was cinched at the waist with a sleek black belt. The belt added structure to the silhouette. But it was the skirt that truly stole the spotlight. Embellished with dramatic fringe details, the skirt swayed with every step. A thigh-high slit added just the right amount of edge to the overall look. Styled by Khushi Nimbalkar, Sonali opted for gold dainty bracelets and statement earrings to balance out the brown hues of her dress. She slipped into a pair of classic black heels. For the glam, she went with a soft bronzed look. She added a warm bronze shade on her eyelids to create a smokey eye. She went with a flawless base. She added a muted brown shade to her lips. She styled her hair in glossy, structured waves that were gelled and parted perfectly to frame her face. Sonali's fashion game continues to evolve, and she's clearly not slowing down. Earlier, she embraced breezy summer elegance in a floor-length beige dress by Twinkle Hanspal. The collared neckline and button-down detailing gave the outfit a tailored feel, while the delicate black floral line art print added an artistic, contemporary edge. The cinched waist and asymmetrical, layered skirt added both definition and drama, while a sheer overlay introduced fluidity and grace. She finished the look with nude heels and sleek metal accessories as she balanced minimalism with sophistication.
