Pantone's Color of the Year for 2014 Radiant Orchid
Pantone has announced the Color of the
Year for 2014: Radiant Orchid. Radiant Orchid is described as a purple hue that blooms with confidence and magical warmth, that intrigues
the eye and sparks the imagination. It is an expressive, creative and embracing
purple — one that draws you in with its beguiling charm. A captivating harmony of
fuchsia, purple and pink undertones, Radiant Orchid
emanates great joy, love and health.
In their Spring Fashion Report, Leatrice Eiseman, executive
director of the Pantone Color Institute, said: This season, consumers are looking for a state of thoughtful, emotional and
artistic equilibrium. While this need for stability is reflected in the composition of the
palette, the inherent versatility of the individual colors allows for experimentation
with new looks and color combinations.
In women's fashion designers take a modern twist on the traditional for spring 2014 by pairing soft
pastels with vivid brights to create a colorful equilibrium. Inspired by a mixture of
blooming flowers, travels abroad, and strong, confident women, designers use
color to refresh, revive and defy conventional wisdom.
