Signifying a shift in mood, a palette of striking color blends wearability with desirability.
Pantone LLC, the global authority on color and provider of professional color standards for the design industries, released the Pantone Fashion Color Trend Report Autumn/Winter 2024/2025 edition for London Fashion Week (LFW).
Published for the fashion industry by the Pantone Color Institute, the trend forecasting and color consultancy, this season’s report features the top ten standout colors as well as the five new core classics we can expect to see as fashion designers introduce new Autumn/Winter collections.
The palette of potent and powerful colors featured in LFW Autumn/Winter 2024/2025 melds a fusion of retro influences with our desire to create new visions. Blending wearability with desirability, this grouping of sophisticated mid-tones, nature-based hues, deep darks, and natural and honest neutrals signify a shift in mood with their strong trans-seasonal appeal and inherent statement of elegance and ease. Sleek and practical, yet visually engaging, they are dependable essentials that embrace an approach to dressing that is more pure and simple, but at the same time lends itself to creativity and playfully dramatic statements.
“Colors for LFW Autumn/Winter 2024/2025 reimagine a new definition of core color and seasonless shades.” said Leatrice Eiseman, Executive Director of the Pantone Color Institute. “Linked to a more considered approach to color’s functionality, this creative yet approachable palette creates a strong foundational base upon which to layer playful accent tones that adds drama to the simplicity, indulges the senses and embraces the “elevated every day.”
