Shades of purple, plum and lilac were the hottest hues at the 2024 NFL Honors. Actors and athletes alike, including Justin Hartley, Derwin James Jr. and James Conner, favored vibrant color palettes on the red carpet.
Purple is poised for popularity this season after the shade dominated the runways of men’s fashion week last year. During their fall 2024 presentations, labels like Etro, Fendi and Emporio Armani featured varying shades of violet ranging from muted mauve to bold magenta.
