Pantone Color of the Year 2011(1)

Pantone Color of the Year 2011(1)

Write: Zama [2011-05-20]

Chosen for its ability to uplift spirits and a versatility that allows it to translate for every market, 18-2120 Honeysuckle has been named as Pantone!s 2011 Color of
the Year. A dynamic reddish pink, Honeysuckle is encouraging and uplifting. It elevates our psyche beyond escape, instilling the confidence, courage and spirit to meet the exhaustive challenges that have become part of everyday life. Leatrice Eiseman, Executive Director of the Pantone Color Institute

Honeysuckle adds excitement to basic shapes in solid colors and adds a festive note when used for femme
prints. A frothy dress in the color is grounded with a tailored blazer and neat accessories; a more streamlined
style makes a head-to-toe statement with matching shoes. More fun and extroverted than demure pale pinks,
Honeysuckle achieves an ideal balance of sophistication and effervescence.
