Modern fabrics, retro prints
Red, yellow and orange Caribbean colors have always been the standard for market umbrellas. Not to mention the old mainstay - forest green. That's exactly why the latest creations are so surprising. Here's a sneak peek at what's hot this year.
Finely tuned umbrella shades
While brightly-colored umbrellas will always be a customer favorite, this year, things are cooling down and coming down to earth. Umbrella shades in colors like spa blue, boulder grey, and eggshell white will give your patio a welcome sense of calm. Think grey sounds boring? Just try it - it's such a smart look.
Also popular this year are earth tones that can make even a concrete slab feel like it's in the heart of an outdoor retreat. You'll find cocoa brown, olive green, and rusty orange umbrella shades to give your patio an organic feel. And let's not forget the hard-to-find eggplant purple patio umbrella, or vineyard purple as it may be called. Purple is the perfect contrast to green so a purple patio umbrella looks fabulous on any deck or patio.
Also big this season are stripes and new designer "sandwich" umbrellas. These are a Hayneedle exclusive and feature a lighter color, like Natural Sunbrella, sandwiched between a darker solid. The result is something chic and modern, and totally not what the neighbors will have. Whatever patio umbrella you choose, this year's selection was carefully chosen to coordinate with the hottest trends in patio furniture. You'll find an umbrella to mix and match any of the latest patio furniture trends.

Retro patterns, modern fabrics
Today's patio umbrellas are not only offered in a larger variety of colors and patterns, but they're simply better than they ever have been. Outdoor fabrics like GeoBella, Solefin, Sunbrella and Obravia give you umbrellas you can use year after year. These synthetic weaves hold color better. They're stronger, so thread can be finer. They resist fading, don't shrink, repel water and avoid mildew. They love the outdoors. You don't have to fuss over your patio umbrellas more than to hose them off once in a while. Leave them out all year if you want. Enjoy some extra time to relax.
Pillow talk What looks great with earth-tone umbrellas? Tone-on-tone pillows and patio chair pads with similar but slightly different hues create a welcoming oasis. Add a table with a slate or mosaic stone top. Classic cast iron, aluminum or steel furniture looks amazing when adorned with these rich earth tones. Take a stand Market umbrella stands continue to get stronger, lighter and more dramatic. Graceful arches provide a unique modern support to the vintage fabrics. Iron is always a favorite for umbrella stands, but we have our eye on satin-finish metals that cool and complement the warm umbrella colors. Patio umbrella stands have never looked more at home amid this statelier trend. |  |
