Since 2000, Pantone, the authority on color, provider of color systems and leading technology for accurate communication of color, has always chosen a color that reflects the current cultural climate. In the following year, the color has historically influenced trends in all facets of design; architecture, interior décor, fashion, food, travel etc. Any colour announced embodies deeper societal trends, forecasting and influencing visual and design trends for the year ahead. The Pantone institute has now unveiled the 2017 colour of the year as greenery, inspired by nature and influences. We look back at some of the celebrities who adorned various ensembles in shades of green last year. We hope to see more influences of this color in months to come.
