Pantone Color of the Year: Radiant Orchid

Every year a new color of the year is announced by Pantone as their color of the year.  This choice impacts not only fashion, but home decorations, flowers and just about every other industry!

This choice is determined not at random but by a lot of market research and other factors, so the choice of this year's color- Radiant Orchid- was after careful consideration.
