Fall Colors: Top 10 Color Trends For Fall/Winter 2016-17
Pantone has shown the top colors for fall/winter 201617 and I couldn’t be any more excited. The season’s earthy tones like Warm Taupe and Dusty Cedar have been put with Bodacious and Spicy Mustard with pops of lively colors. Lots of these colors are undoubtedly a departure from the more conventional fall colors.
According to Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute:
Transcending gender, these unexpectedly vivacious colors in our Fall 2016 palette act as playful but structured departures from your more typical fall shades. Blue skies represent constancy as they are always above us. Grays give a feeling of stability, Red tones invite confidence and warmth, while the hot Pinkish Purples and Spicy Mustard Yellows suggest a touch of the exotic.
I adore the Dusty Cedar shade and I intend to integrate lots of it into my autumn wardrobe. Bodacious will make a beautiful color mix when paired with neutral colours like light grey, cream or black.
