PANTONE color of the year 2017 - Greenery

3:12 AM Latice Design 1 Comments


Each year Pantone chooses an official colour of the year, and each year the decision creates debate and conversation, with 2017 being no exception. You must have already crossed paths with Greenery—fresh and zesty yellow-green shade that evokes the first days of spring when nature’s greens revive, restore and renew. What do you think?


Illustrative of flourishing foliage and the lushness of the great outdoors, the fortifying attributes of Greenery signals consumers to take a deep breath, oxygenate and reinvigorate, are the words that come to mind. Compared to previous years bright, strong shades like Tangerine Tango (2012), Emerald (2013) and Radiant Orchid (2014), Marsala (2015, Rose Quartz and Serenity (2016) .

Historically, the colour – which is intended to reflect the current cultural climate – has influenced not only fashion, but also other trends such as architecture, food, décor, etc. The yellow-green hue takes off from the concept of environment, of course.

The chosen hue of the year is supposed to be a "color shot of a selected moment in time" — therefore, the hue in question becomes a sort of microcosm for the current state of the world, Pressman said

For 2017, Pantone sees a "yearning for community, unity, and support," in line with Pressman. Greenery's connections to vegetation will be understood as symbolic, since plants grow and regenerate each year after the winter. This messaging is similar to that of 2016's 2 winners, rose quartz and Serenity. "We see the 2017 choice of greenery as a natural evolution from the Pantone Color of the Year 2016," she told North American countrywhile rose quartz and Serenity signaled a need for harmony within chaos, she says, greenery points to a want to attach with our roots in nature, in an attempt to reinvent ourselves — virtually like we've become a little a lot of optimistic since last year, perhaps.

The Color of the Year isn't solely supported what is gaining traction across varied fields (like fashion, beauty, tech, design, and so on), it is also supported a a lot of nebulous temperature-check of whatever's happening within the world, and what is going to be trending next.

However, this significantly spirited shade of inexperienced did not precisely leap out at North American country on recent runways. "Typically once we see spirited, yellow-based inexperienced shades like greenery acquire play, it's been in times of rebellion, once individuals were creating bold moves and looking out to possess the voices heard," Pressman noted. once the hue crops up in an exceedingly fashion context, it's generally as a statement-making accent color. However, since "greens at nature’s neutrals," as Pressman puts it, this palette has seen a revivification of late in flora-inspired collections — particularly those of Kenzo, Gucci, and Cynthia Rowley.
