For each fashion season, global authority on colour Pantone selects a range of colours that it predicts will be seen within runway collections and it believes defines the current climate of the industry.
While the colours in its central palette for the SS23 season aimed to encourage experimentation and individualistic expression, Pantone’s New Classics compilation stuck to “ultra-calm tints” that stuck closer to tranquillity. Each shade was selected to reflect the new era the upcoming season will be reigning in, as well as how the past few years have impacted relationships with colour.
FashionUnited has broken down each of the key colours that Pantone said will shape fashion next season and where they have been spotted on SS23 runways.
