Mimosa is, like, so this year. In 2010, Pantone tell us, turquoise is going to be everywhere...
Pantone’s vice-president of strategic business development Helmut Eifert says, ‘Turquoise occupies a very special position in the world of colour. It is believed to be a protective talisman, a colour of deep compassion and healing, and a colour of faith and truth, inspired by water and sky.
‘Through years of colour word-association studies, we also find that turquoise represents an escape to many – taking them to a tropical fantasy that is pleasant and inviting, even if only a fantasy.’
Hmmm how do we feel about Pantone 15-5519?
Avoid wearing it in Lycra teamed with black.....taking me back to the summer of '87 when wearing cycling shorts as a fashion item was considered cool..eeeek!
