Transporting and Transformative Canvas
This season’s unisex colors gravitate toward a calming and peaceful palette, which pays homage to the beauty of natural resources. The tones encourage relaxation, curiosity and exploration. The vibrant colors that are simultaneously quieting and classic “transports us to a happier, sunnier place where we feel free to express a wittier version of our real selves,” according to Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute™
Top (10) Men’s and Women’s Spring 2016 Colors
The Spring 2016 collection is led by PANTONE 13-1520 Rose Quartz, a persuasive yet gentle tone that conveys compassion and a sense of composure. It is not surprising that a subtle orange,PANTONE 16-1548 Peach Echo, appears in this collection, following the fashion and design communities love for that color for several seasons. Capping off the warm hues is the high energy PANTONE 17-1564 Fiesta, a harbinger of excitement and pursuit of adventure. Finally, PANTONE 12-0752 Buttercup is a slight deviation from the calm palette, bringing with it a beacon of hope.

A shade of aqua that leans toward the green family, PANTONE 13-4810 Limpet Shell is clear, clean and defined. A maritime-inspired blue, PANTONE 19-4049 Snorkel Blue plays in the navy family, but with a happier, more energetic context.
