Pantone LLC, an X-Rite company, has launched the Pantone Fashion Color Report Fall 2014, which includes the top 10 colors for women’s and men’s fashion for fall 2014, along with designer sketches, quotes and headshots.

Released to coincide with New York Fashion Week, the report features a comprehensive overview of designers’ use of color in their upcoming collections.

“This is a season of untypical colors — more reflective of the imagination and ingenuity, which makes for an artful collection of colors and combinations not bound by theusual hues for fall,” said Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute. “There is a certain mystique that is reflected throughout the palette, inspired by the increasing need for people everywhere to create an individual imprint.”

The complete report is available at www.pantone.com/fall2014.

The top colors for women’s fashion for fall 2014 are:

Radiant Orchid, Sangria, Bright Cobalt, Cypress, Royal Blue, Aurora Red, Aluminum, Mauve Mist, Cognac, and Misted Yellow. (See the swatches shown in the photo larger on Beauty Packaging’s Facebook page).

Lots of beauty companies have already launched cosmetics inspired by Raidant Orchid – see them here in Beauty Packaging’s Online Exclusive, Cosmetics ‘Radiate’ in Orchid.
