Find Trendy Pantone Fall Colors in Classic Vintage Clothing
Nougat Tiered Ruffle 60s Cord Peasant Jumper Dress XS S
For 14 years,
Pantonehas set the color trends in fashion, even longer for cars and household item color trends working two years in advance.
This year the 2011 colors seem especialy exciting. Colors from the 60s return, tweaked a little and of course, given much more attractive names. If you remember the old "harvest gold" appliances your parents had in the 60s, it is now similar to "Bamboo" and a rich, beautiful hue. "Avacodo" is very similar to Cedar, and if you love greens, you will adore this shade.
