Fall/Winter 2012/2013 - Colour Trends - Caroline's Fashion Styling

Pantone LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of X-Rite, Incorporated, is the world-renowned authority on colour.

After every New York fashion week edition, they analyse all they’ve seen and bring us the colour trend report on the most important colours of the season. This report is important for women of all ages who want to keep up with current trends. Colour can also be a factor as to how fashionable last year’s pieces are or not.

For this season here are the most important colours in fashion by Pantone:

And these is their explanation:

“Bright Chartreuse, a vital yellow-green, pays homage to a typical spring shade and creates a bridge into the cooling days of fall. Reminiscent of bright green foliage, it provides a perfect accent to every colour in the palette.

Pink Flambé is a delicious, vibrant pink with a bit of heat to it. Pair it with vivacious and enticing Tangerine Tango for an ongoing retro feeling. Or, to bring a calming element to the mix, combine these vibrant warm tones with Ultramarine Green, a deep, cooling blue-green. Ethereal Rhapsody is a grayed-down purple that also encourages comfort and serenity with its quiet, muted tone.

Honey Gold, a mellow, burnished yellow, suggests the soft-muted tones of sunlight to brighten a fall day. Pair it with sensible and strong Olympian Blue, a patriotic blue that will surely make its way into fall and winter athletic apparel.

Rich and robust, French Roast is a tasty, sophisticated hue that is a great alternative to the black and charcoal basics typically worn in the fall. Other staple neutrals include elegant and versatile Titanium, the quintessential cool gray, and Rose Smoke, a veiled rose tone that pairs well with Rhapsody and Titanium.”
