Emotions at the Forefront in 2022

Ready to Discover Pantone’s New Color Palette?

Our exit from the seats and closed walls continues gradually. After a long pandemic, like Truman in the Truman Show, and like everyone else in the world, we want to live and experience what’s real. We’re slowly tearing down the walls, re-establishing our connection to the outside world.

Especially in the last year, the way we express our emotions has changed in many extents. Even if we don’t realize it, we also show our feelings with colors and ultimately with what we wear.

Well, here’s our first question. How would you like to feel in the coming period, which will strengthen our reconnect with the real world? And how do you reconcile the emotions you feel with colors?

We hope you’re looking to the future with a little more hope, just like us. Because the Spring Summer 2022 season color pallette, published by Pantone Color Institute, brings colors, hope, excitement, and movement to the main stage this summer.

Color Trend Report for Spring/Summer 2022, which was unveiled at New York Fashion Week this season, Leatrice Eiseman, Executive Director of the Pantone Color Institute says that “Colors for Spring 2022 bring together competing desires for comforting familiarity and joyful adventure through a range of soothing and timeless colors, along with joyful hues that celebrate playfulness,

“At this point, we are interacting with strong colors this season, from clothes to accessories. If what you’re looking for are calmness and trust, we’ll be faced with different shades of blue. Blue, which comes in four shades including Spun Sugar, a light pastel, Glacier Lake, synonymous with tranquility, and Harbor Blue that Pantone associates with “our search for a safe space.” This palette, which highlights balance and comfort, is completed by a delicate powder pink, Gossamer Pink, and a brown, Cocoa Mocha, the symbol of a calming spirit.

If you’re feeling a little more daring, looking for adventure and optimism, then let’s move on to more dynamic colors. Expressing ourselves in a liberated, bold fashion via vibrant shades like blue — once again — but this time in Skydiver, a more pronounced shade, according to Pantone, “inspires us to new heights”. The purple Dahlia shade also signals a certain dynamism.

An explosive trio completes this palette marked by vividness: the striking red Poinciana, the flamboyant pink Innuendo, and, brighter than ever, the yellow Daffodil, synonymous with, among other things, renewal.

This color palette, which reminds us of the difficult times we have all been through together, also shows us the light at the end of the tunnel. It is ready to take its place in the heart of the design world with colors that will help us unlock the maximum potential we have. Ultimately, in our closet, in our home, in our style.
