The Colours of Spring 2015

Critics and commoners, all have to hear out Pantone, the international colour authority that declares the colour of fashion. In its recently revealed Fashion Colour Report Spring 2015, the findings are an absolute read. Featuring Top 10 colours for women’s and men’s fashion for Spring 2015 in combination with designer sketches, headshots and quotes, the Colour Report is the bible of fashion for the oncoming spring. Executive Director of Pantone Colour Institute, Leatrice Eiseman is quite candid with her comments. Says she, “Many feel compelled to be connected around the clock because we are afraid we’ll miss something important. There is a growing movement to step out and create ‘quiet zones’ to disconnect from technology and unwinding, giving ourselves time to stop and be still”.

Cool hues would be the one to dominate the world of fashion in 2015. Leatrice continues “Color choices follow the same minimalistic ‘en plein air’ theme, taking a cue from nature rather than being reinvented or mechanically manipulated. Soft, cool hues blend with subtle warm tones to create a soothing escape from the everyday hustle and bustle”. This means pastels and neutrals will be wardrobe-dominating.

Top Ten Women’s Colours for Spring 2015

Women are choosy about two things in life – colour and variety. However, colour preferences tend to change very often. As per Pantone’s Fashion Colour Report for Spring’ 15, the preference for Pastels during Spring is going to change to the dark side.

The Spring 2015 palette is eclectic enough. Watch out for these 10 commandments that would cast new decibels in fashion statement.

Aquamarine – An airy, ethereal blue known for its cool, dreamy feel, Aquamarine interestingly gels well with the other greens and blues.

Marsala – Think of Marsala and the name spells Fortified Wine. This compelling hue brings the richness of a fulfilling meal enriching mind and soul. The red-brown roots point towards natural earthiness. Says Eiseman about Marsala, “Exuding confidence and stability, this hearty, yet stylish tone is universally appealing and translates easily to fashion, beauty, industrial design, home furnishings and interiors.”

Like to know which colour topped out of the ten? In the women’s wear category, Aquamarine topped the list, followed by the cool turquoise Scuba Blue and minty Lucite Green.

From the press release that was circulated to the media,

“Marsala was a hit on the Spring 2015 runways with fashion designers featured in the PANTONE Fashion Color Report Spring 2015. Daniel Silverstain, Herve Leger by Max Azria and Dennis Basso incorporated the hue into their collections. The impactful, full-bodied qualities of Marsala make for an elegant statement color when the color is used on its own or as a compelling accent when paired with many other colors.”

Fashion Designers such as Betsey Johnson, BCBGMAXAZRIA, and Monique Lhuillier have incorporated some of these colors into their Spring 2015 collections.
