I just visited the Pantone site and they have their report of 2013 Spring Fashion Colours.

goodness they are quick, I'm only just finding out what colours are " in" for the autumn/winter
I usually want something in a colour that's not available because it's not fashionable according to " them".

I always wonder who decides???
 
Loving the red yellow and blue! I don't follow fashion stuff either. I am too unfashionable for that. lol
 
I'm in good company. My clothing consists of a couple pairs of shorts and a ton of old navy tshirts.
 
well, i think everyone here knows how i feel about fashion........

my uniform and me, we'll be over here worrying about something besides what to wear lol

they are lovely colors though! and, yeah, who decides?
 
I was wondering that too Vicki?? And really...isn't every color represented? I just don't get it. I mean they are cool colors and all that I just don't understand. I'm fashion stupid!! I'm not quite as regimented as Vicki...but not far off.
 
It's funny, I couldn't care less when it comes to fashion, but I do follow them when it comes to graphic design, which does follow fashion to some degree. So it's good to know.
 
From these colours and the interior designers they chose the "colour of the year".

It's a forecast of which colour of the yearbwill be in , 2013.
Pantone is probably the biggest colour "designer / forecaster in US and Europe.

I didn't put it up for "fashion" it's a good site to stay in touch with the designing community and what will be popular.

I'm a colour and design freak and love to know what's happening in the design field.

Sorry you don't share my enthusiasm -- off to play games .....
 
Jacqueline I quite understand where you're coming from. It's all about taking a fresh look at things - doing it differently - trying to capture attention and keep it interesting.

Interesting thing colour. First time I ever took it seriously was after seeing one of Van Gogh's works - Vincent's Chair with His Pipe. I stood in front of it and was absolutely hypnotised. Kept going back to it. The way colour was used in that painting was a revelation to me.
 
oh dear I feel ticked off now

( but still love you J.)

how can they predict from this what colour will be in? it's them that dictates what's in .You cannot get what you want, be it for fashion or interior design .

I don't care what it is as long as it's emerald or jade or coppery
.LOL

I just shudder at the thought of thousands of people chucking out their 2 year old kitchen because the powers to be have decided that duck egg is the flavour of the year; follow the leader :sheep1

yes, colours and the use of them are fascinating. I can stare in wonder and awe at a rainbow for ages and you're so right Tamsin how some painters used and mixed paint to get just the hue they want is mind boggling.
 
J - can you imagine the color war room? I'll bet it looked like skittles threw up in there. It def takes a special eye. I'd be like...so you want to know if I prefer red or red? Uhhhh???
 
I might be saying something totally stupid but hum ... yeah ... those are just classical spring colours with fancy names aren't they ?

Yeah I know ... I'm totally hopeless with everything that regards fashion LOL
 
It's usually all the same colors, just coming back in and out of style. I watch my kiddos at school and 80's neon colors are back "in". So is 80's' style. (Why...I'm not sure...I'm dreading a resurgence of shoulder pads.)

But colors cycle back in, just like everything else!!!
 
Sara- I just told Caitlyn that it was too bad that I didn;t save my 80's clothes- she would fit into them perfectly and would look awesome heheh!
 
It was 80's day today at the middle and high schools for Homecoming week. I think it's so funny because they are already dressing like it so much!
