Pantone LLC, an X-Rite company and the global authority on color and provider of professional color standards for the design industries, introduced Engage, the Autumn/Winter 2015/2016 edition of PANTONE VIEW Colour Planner.

Looking at color as a total language, this multi-platform forecast offers seasonal inspiration, key color direction and suggested color harmonies for women’s and men’s fashion, active wear, cosmetics and lifestyle, as well as industrial and graphic design.

With global fashion trends becoming less constrained by rigid color rules and our feelings about the future more optimistic, consumers are delighting in color expression and continuing to seek out color year round. This transitional approach toward color shows the growing acceptance of color throughout the year.

Color statements in the PANTONE VIEW Colour Planner are confident, with classic and familiar tones combining with some less traditional tones for some unusual yet commercial palettes that allow business to playfully engage with color without the financial risk.

“In the past, as temperatures drop, consumers have typically retreated into darker shades of blacks and navies, but in our globally connected world, this is no longer the case,” said Laurie Pressman, vice president of the Pantone Color Institute. “Today as we begin to feel more confident about our economic future and can see what our friends are wearing around the globe, consumers and businesses alike are yearning to engage in a dialogue with color not only during the warmer spring and summer time period but also during the misty and colder autumn and winter season.”

PANTONE VIEW Colour Planner Fall/Winter 2015/2016 contains the following eight palettes:

Impression

Impression is a story about subtle, atmospheric color. A sophisticated range of misted and understated shades give an impression, a feeling of color.

Intermingle

Speaking to quiet modesty, Intermingle is comprised of rich caramel beiges that decline to greige and tannic browns. A wonderful array of nature’s hues colors in Intermingle are simplified through dimming, reducing their volume.

Curiosity

Displaying a modern energy, Curiosity highlights a contemporary collection of colors, that jump about and move up and down the scale – dark, bright, loud or soft.

Empathy

Colors in Empathy are warm, optimistic, peaceful and harmonious, but at the same time, pushing the boundaries of new ideas and combinations.

Connect

Connect joins bright splashes of painterly hues – unsophisticated and literal – togetherin bold graphic and color-block stories. The message is instant, basic and fun.
