Pantone queried fashion designers:
"If you could add any color to the PANTONE
Fashion + Home Color System, what color would
you add and why? What would you name it?" |

Adrienne Vittadini Sea Glass Green – its muted Green hue mimics the color of translucent glass discovered on a sandy shoreline
Betsey Johnson A clean, bright, almost neon shade called Betsey Pink
Carlos Campos The Rust color I developed for this collection
Carmen Marc Valvo Nude, an almost non-existent neutral with Pink and Brown casts
Charlotte Ronson The perfect Muted Pale Pink because they always seem too Peach, too Purple or too Blue, and I would name it Perfect Pink
Chris Benz A Grayed-down Mustard Yellow
Cynthia Steffe by Shaun Kearney TriBeCa White! I live in a loft in TriBeCa and love white spaces, but I've discovered how difficult it is to get that perfect shade of White
Elie Tahari A rich Dark Brown with cool undertones that I would name Vanilla Bean
Elise Overland I love Chartreuse, but it is too bright to wear so Frosted Chartreuse
GUiSHEM by Guillermo M. Jop Fir Green in metallic because it's a shade that goes with fall colors and the metallic makes it stand out, and I would name it Elektra Olive
Hyden Yoo When you see the Redder side of a Gala apple, it has a dusty surface, and the hue itself is not quite Red and not quite Pink, I would call it Dusty Apple — it can give off a warm temperature, a rustic mood, a feeling of nostalgia, a reminiscent sight, a playful attitude, a comforting smell and a classic taste
Lela Rose A color named Rosey Grey after my two children (they were named for colors) — of course this would be a very Dusty Gray with a tint of Rose
MACKAGE Black with a metal look to it that we would call Oxide Black
Maisonette 1977 by Jane Ibrahim A saturated Green color from an old-fashioned, half-filled Coke bottle that is hit by late afternoon sunlight and has a hint of Dark Oak, Sun Kiss and Meadow Green that I would name Pop Bottle Green – I saw it once while I was on vacation in Bali
Nanette Lepore Color swatches that were actually multiple shades of a color, either dip dyed or mottled like a tie-dye
Nicholas K Perfectly Khaki with a Golden tone like an aged military chino that has been baked in the sun, because we have the hardest time finding Khaki colors that are not too Red or too Green
Pamella Roland by Pamella Devos Snowfall, a soft, luminous quality of Gray with a wash of Orange that is the color of the sky before it snows with the cast of the fading sunlight
Peter Som Gift Box Orange, the brightest color in the rainbow mixed with the most sophisticated reference – whenever one receives a gift in an Orange box it can only mean luxury and taste
Rebecca Minkoff Raspberry and Electric Blue – they're our go to handbag colors for fall
Rebecca Taylor A Sparkly Gray called Eighth Avenue
Tadashi Shoji Moss
Tracy Reese A shade of Coral Pink which I would call Rose Carthane
Victor de Souza I love being surrounded by White space, so let's call it Laboratory White – clean, unadulterated and pristine
VPL by Victoria Bartlett Iron Oxide
Yoana Baraschi Python Gray, a complex Natural Gray incorporating Cool Beige undertones that is a perfect complement to the Reds and Browns of the season, or Greige, the perfect mix of Gray and Beige – the most sophisticated of the city neutrals
