Pantone's Leatrice Eiseman has released the spring 2016 colour pallet with a focus on "Colors this season transport us to a happier, sunnier place where we feel free to express a wittier version of our real selves."Reflective of a global trend seeking a chance to disconnect from technology and find something simpler and calming, fashion designers have embraced nostalgia and playful escapism. You will see the evidence in the resurgence of boho-chic styles brought on with a new twist this spring and summer.
Our favorites are;
- Peach Echo for warmth and accessibility from the playful orange family
- Limpet Shell is clear, clean and defined. Suggestive of clarity and freshness
- Iced Coffee is a strong neutral based on the earth softness and subtle
When you are looking to make a bolder statement add a bit of;
- Fiesta reflects excitement, and free-spirited exploration from your last trip south
- Buttercup brings everyone to a happier, sunnier place
- Snorkel Blue plays with a happier, more energetic version of a winter navy
The baseline for this pallet begins with the
2016 colour of the year (actually two)
Rose Quartz; "a warmer embracing rose tone", and Serenity "cooler tranquil blue".
Enjoy planning your spring wardrobe.
