Every year, the fashion industry pays close attention to Pantone, as it is the go-to to predict what color everyone is going to be wearing. The Pantone color of the year determines what we will see in fashion shows, in our favorite seasonal collections, and hopefully, in our closets. While it isn't the only color you or I should have in our seasonal wardrobe, it is the one we should focus on building around in 2025. This year will be a sweet year if Pantone has anything to do with it, as the selection for the next 12 months is a delightful color of chocolate bliss.

"Underpinned by our desire for everyday pleasures, PANTONE 17-1230 Mocha Mousse expresses a level of thoughtful indulgence," said Leatrice Eiseman, Executive Director, Pantone Color Institute. "Sophisticated and lush, yet at the same time an unpretentious classic, PANTONE 17-1230 Mocha Mousse extends our perceptions of the browns from being humble and grounded to embrace aspirational and luxe."
