Wow! Check out these official Fall 2012 colors!
What a tropical feel this Fall palette has.
If someone had handed me this color chart and said, “Guess what season this is for?”
. . . I would have said “Summer.”
Here are the Pantone Fall 2012 colors:
Top row, left to right:
- Pink Flambe
- French Roast
- Tangerine Tango (the 2012 color of the year)
- Olympian Blue
- Ultramarine Green
Bottom row, left to right:
- Rhapsody
- Titanium
- Honey Gold
- Rose Smoke
- Bright Chartreuse
In this palette the traditional Autumn colors of orange, gold, and olive are citrusy brights.
And far from being muted like typical Fall colors, the blue and green are inspired by the Summer sea, while the pink recalls bright bougainvillea flowers.
Fall 2012′s softer colors feel more like Spring.
Instead of Autumn’s traditional rich aubergine, there’s a Spring-like orchid, alongside a medium silvery gray and delicate misty rose.
The one color in this palette that really feels like Fall is the rich, sophisticated brown – a great neutral for the tropical and Spring-inspired colors here.
