Pantone Color of the Year is Marsala 18-1438. This color is a rich, earthy, wine red. It is a decadent, seductive change of flavor from 2014’s Radiant Orchid. Radiant Orchid 18-3224 was an enchanting, charming pop of purple that inspired innovation, creativity, and imagination. The Marsala shade for 2015 is so versatile because it complements different skin tones, is a great warm, earthy color for interiors, and can be an amazing come hither color on your lips! This shade reminds me of drinking red wine, festive gatherings with friends and family, and bold statement pieces. The color name was inspired from Marsala wine which has a tasteful, hearty, richness. To see more of how this color is incorporated into fashion, beauty, and design go to their website at PANTONE.
