Colour Report

Being in the midst of fashion week in New York, Pantone has released their fashion colour report for fall 2012. The one colour that has stuck around from last season and the trendiest colours of 2012 is Tangerine Tango. It is exotic and bold but yet works well with other colours and isn't too over the top. In the past few years the colour of the year has varied in colour, last year was Honeysuckle, an inviting colour of pink, and the year before that was turquoise, a soothing and tropical colour.
 From the past spring season of pastels mixed with neons comes neutrals mixed with brights and even a few darks. For men and women the common colours are honey gold, french roast, olympian blue, tangerine tango, bright chartreuse, titanium and ultramarine green. For men the one of the top fashion colours is rhubarb.
The common trend of this season in deep natural colours with pops of bright yellows, oranges and pinks. Fashion experts are predicting to see deep jewel tones in makeup, thicker more natural eye brows, disheveled hair and messy braids. The fashion experts have also said the fashion don't for this season is duck billed nails where the nails get wider towards the tip.
These are a few examples of outfits using Pantones fashion colours for fall 2012.



Missed fashion week this February? No need to worry, September 6-13th is Fashion week again for spring/summer of the following year.
