Default Fall/Winter 08 Colors!
Since it seems like the FW08 colors are starting to show up, I thought it would be useful to collect them into one thread... starting with the purple that is strangely called Turbulence (color code 5004, I believe):

And I think this is the FW08 red - not sure what it is called but I believe the color code is 6305:

And this one seems to be grouped with the Turbulence and possible FW08 red pieces above so I think it also might be a new FW08 color - especially as it seems to be browner than moutarde, lighter than noce and different than camel - could it be maple?!? Color code appears to be 2615.

Thank you for sharing BM, your such a sweetie. I'm loving the turbulence colour but I'm not too sure about the pleated veneta look, I hope it comes in other styles too...

Thank you so much! I am not sure what to make of that red color. It is definitely a dark red... I must see one IRL!

The purple shade and yellow looks interesting. The new red reminds me of a tomato. LOL . . .Prefer the carmine. Thanks for taking the trouble to update us with the new colours. :)

Thanks for posting those new fall colors. The red one looks like brick red, just the perfect red for fall. Wonder if they have a blue variant coming.

You are a treasure, BookerMoose!

Love the new purple, but not the name LOL! Personally, I think they got red exactly right with Carmino and it should've been made a classic color, but what do I know? They could still have seasonal varieties of red/brick/rose, etc. But nothing matches the true crimson red.

I can't take the credit - we should thank Rakuten (is that how it is spelled?) for having the colors up already!

However, we should thank you for your time and effort, BM. I really love the purple color. I think there is also a blue, deeper than oceano of this season. I am waiting to see that color IRL.

I love the purple as well. Thanks for sharing! You don't see that color much these days for accessories...at least I haven't seen much.
