Pantone’s 2012 Color of the Year
“Popular this year among fashion and cosmetic designers, ‘tangerine tango’ is ‘sophisticated but at the same time dramatic and seductive’, explains Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute. ‘Reminiscent of the radiant shadings of a sunset, [the shade] marries the vivaciousness and adrenaline rush of red with the friendliness and warmth of yellow, to form a high-visibility, magnetic hue that emanates heat and energy.’
