Pantone Color Institute is the company that the fashion industry looks to to help predict what colors will be in style for the upcoming year. They are able to make their predictions by hours upon hours of research. They look for colors that are popping up worldwide, not only in the fashion industry, but also in the entertainment industry, upcoming films, art, emerging artists, travel destinations, socio-economic conditions and more.

They look for a color that resonates around the world. The color of the year is a reflection of what people are looking for, what they feel they need. We all look for colors that express our moods and our attitudes. This year people are saying they want to feel grounded & nurtured while being sophisticated.  

What is the color of 2015? Marsala; a rich red-brown hue which adds a natural earthy sophistication which easily translates to fashion, beauty, industrial design, home furnishings and interiors.  

This color is equally appealing to men & women and is flattering against many skin tones. Marsala is a stirring and flavorful shade for apparel and accessories, one that encourages color creativity and experimentation. It is a great layering color, and looks wonderful against metallics, as well as browns & coppers. Teal, blue green and orange would all be great contrasting colors. 

Keep an eye out for this rich beautiful tone on our shelves!
