7 colour trends we will see this fall
Are you thinking about trying something new or changing the colour of your jewellery packaging, gift wrapping, bags or accessories?
You can take inspiration from the fashion world and its colour trends for AW 20/21. The colours of the fashion industry set the tone for many other industries, including furniture and decor, graphic design, jewellery or packaging.
Use colours to make your packaging stand out and express yourself. Let us guide you through the season's biggest colour trends, which you are guaranteed to see throughout the year.
Every year, the experts at the Pantone Color Institute look at what colours will be relevant in the coming seasons. What do the colours of autumn and winter 20/21 have in common? A need and a desire for versatile and timeless colours that encourage creativity and functionality. A wish for colours that stand out, but at the same time is not short-lived. A desire to move from seasonal trends to more well-thought-out items. There is a demand for new classics that can be used again season after season.
”Offering a rich narrative, the color palette for Autumn/Winter 2020/2021 highlights our desire for versatile, timeless color. Reflecting a 'less is more' mindset that is becoming increasingly important to consumers prioritizing value and functionality, our color palette is stripped of exces.”
- Leatrice Eiseman, Executive Director - Pantone Color Institute
Where we last autumn saw earthy and burnt shades of brown, red and orange as well as dark shades of blue and green, the palette is wider this year - here the colour includes both delicate and dark shades. Colours like peach, beige, sand and rose colour are in the subtle end of the spectrum, while green, blue, orange and red especially is seen in more intense nuances.
The colours of the coming season match each other really well. You can choose to stick to one simple color for a minimalist and subtle look, you can combine different colours for a more daring and prominent look with a great contrast.
