The Fall Fashion Gods have spoken . . .

and Pantone's NEW Fall & Winter Fashion Colors are here!  Yes!!!!  10 must-wear seasonal colors ranging in "Earthy" to the "Unexpected".

Pantone, Who?

Haven't heard of Pantone?  No worries.  Until a few years ago, the word "Pantone" sounded like a gross mispronunciation of a very very popular haircare line.  Not so much . . .   Actually, Pantone is the world authority and go-to for all things color.  Twice a year (Fall and Spring), Pantone makes bold yet spot on color predictions that provide design inspiration and forecast trends.

How do designers know what colors to feature in their runway shows?  Pantone.

Who decides the new "It" color featured in magazines all around the world?  Pantone.

Say Hello! Pantone 10

Say Hello to the 10 Essential Colors this Fall/Winter are an absolute must for any wardrobe this Season.  Anchored by the NEW blue tones of Riverside and Airy Blue, they look to provide consistency to this season's "Unexpected" and "Foundation[al] colors.
