It’s that time again – the annual release of the "Color of the Year" by The Pantone Color Institute. We could have all probably guessed with the events of 2020, that this year’s selection would be carefully determined. Do you reflect on all the downside of 2020 or do you look forward to better times in 2021? The answer is that it appears to be both – but both in a positive way.
Ultimate Gray, which could be thought of as more somber is really just the opposite. It stands for fortitude, strength and resilience. It’s “rock solid” – picture a tough piece of granite – it may be gray in color but it can take on all the elements and still be standing. Just like us.
Illuminating is what we hope for. It expresses optimism, positivity and gratitude. It’s the sign of better days to come. It’s the sunshine that follows the rain.
So, what does that mean for fashion? It means there are two great colors to add to your closet this year. Or, if they are already in the back of your closet, it’s time to bring them to the forefront. The classic gray is a neutral that goes with everything and yellow adds a pop of color to any outfit. And they even look great together.
