2013's color of the year, Emerald, was a symbol of growth, renewal and prosperity. For 2014, Radiant Orchid evokes creativity and encourages originality.
In Pantone's press release earlier this year, they stated that for fashion, "Radiant Orchid’s rosy undertones radiate on the skin, producing a healthy glow when worn by both men and women. A dazzling attention-getter, Radiant Orchid permeated the runways during the spring 2014 fashion shows and is already making its way onto the red carpet. Fashion designers featured in the PANTONE Fashion Color Report Spring 2014, including Emerson by Jackie Fraser-Swan, Juicy Couture and Yoana Baraschi, are incorporating Radiant Orchid into their spring collections and variations of this hue will carry into men’s and women’s clothing and accessories throughout next year."
Here's a stunning dress by Oscar de la Renta:
And here are some items that are a bit more in my price range:
J. Crew Crinkle Boy Shirt in Orchid Plaid
J. Crew Collection Featherweight Cashmere Cardigan in Neon Orchid
J. Crew Cleo Suede Loafers in Radiant Orchid
How about a little Radiant Orchid nail polish?
I kinda think they're going overboard here though...
Try to incorporate some Radiant Orchid into your wardrobe this year, be it head to toe or just a flash with a scarf or eyeshadow.
