If you are a fashion geek or a trendsetter, you will surely be interested in the hottest trends of the upcoming seasons.

Switch yourself on, precede trends or have excellent fashion timing – it’s worth following the publications of the Pantone Institute – Pantone Fashion Color Report.

What is Pantone Inc.?

It’s an American printing corporation located in New Jersey and operating since 1962. It has been in the printing business for years providing professionalists with access to a specially designed system of colours. It allows them to express their creativity and to design products and services based on the expectations of customers.

The brand became popular thanks to the created scale of colours called Pantone Color Matching System. It’s a tool that printers and graphic designers widely use and it states about what is to become trendy in fashion.

For 16 years the Pantone Institute has been an oracle and thus says which colours will be trendy in fashion and design in the upcoming seasons. Then they became the inspiration for fashion designers, fashion enthusiasts, freaks, journalists and trendsetters. What’s interesting – the selection of Pantone colours is based on the occasions, the social mood and situations reflected by the ‘colour philosophy’. For example, in 2016 the focus was put on two most important colours. They symbolise the equality of sexes, as well as the balance in this chaotic world. They bring consistency, comfort and relaxation.

Without doubt, such easy and balanced, in terms of colours, will be autumn and winter 2016. In order to contrast all the bad things happening in the world – wars, crisis, etc. – the colours that symbolise the pursuit of peace and stabilisation will be on top.

Unlike the recently popular meme with a brand paint, which had a colour name in the description – ‘Supposedly Beige’, the Pantone colour palette describes the colours in a very detailed way. They are additionally labelled by number and additional information, like metallicity, fluorescence and gloss.

The Pantone Fashion Color Report shows this year’s autumn and winter the most important colours: the shades of blue – Riverside 17-4028 and Airy Blue 14-41-22, grey Sharkskin 17-3914, red Aurora Red 18-1550, neutral Warm Taupe 16-1318, pink Dusty Cedar 18-1630, emerald and green Lush Meadow 18-5845, Spicy Mustard 14-0952, suede Potter’s Clay 18-1340 and fuchsia Bodacious 17-3240.

Plenty of clothes with colours relating to the Pantone palette are available in the autumn and winter collection in our online shop bolf.eu.
