To continue on the ideas of the previous post... Pantone publishes its color trends for the general public just in time for the season. This year I have chosen one C-Lon Bead Cord color for all the 15 Pantone colors.
I have already seen an uptick in purchases of C-Lon Bead Cord colors
matching the color palettes precisely, especially the New Classics. Is
it on purpose or subliminal, planned or accidental, a reflection of
these color trends? Or do I simply notice the similarities more because I am aware of the colors chosen for 2024.
The way I look at this ... It's another fun way to look at colors. If one of them gets you excited, then yes, include it in your next piece; if not, then ignore it. When I was doing 32 shows a year selling lots of earrings, I saw the effect of these trends, but they were delayed, especially on the West Coast. A year after a Color of the Year and Fashion Color Trends were announced, I got customers looking for earrings to go with clothes in these hues, shades, or tints.
