Pantone Predicts These Colours Will Dominate Your Wardrobe in 2019
From a fashion stance, there's a lot to like about winter: Cosy coats, cashmere, party dresses and shearling-lined boots are just some of the sartorial treats we indulge in at this time of year. While we're not wishing the season away, we are starting to look to what 2019 in terms of style. From handbags and shoes to dresses and sunglasses, we've already given you the low down on some of spring/summer 2019 top trends. Now it's time for a lesson in colour…
A couple of weeks back, Pantone revealed Living Coral (a vibrant tangerine shade) as its 2019 Colour of the Year. Now, though, the company showcased its full predictions for 2019. The spectrum of 16 colours boasts a near-perfect red (or, as Pantone calls it, Fiesta), a deep navy (Eclipse) and a hot-pink (Pink Peacock)—all of which are set to dominate our homes and our wardrobes in the coming months. As always, our aim is to keep you one step ahead of the trends, which is why we've picked out the six colours we think fashion will adopt for spring so you can buy into them early. Keep scrolling to add some new-season flair to your winter wares.
PRESSED ROSE
Style Notes: Dustier in tone than Millennial Pink, this is how grown-ups do the romantic shade. Invest in a clean-cut blazer and wear it with jeans and statement accessorises.
