The Pantone colour of the year and supporting colour palettes lead the way for trends before and after it’s announcement in several industries in particular, the textile industries such as fashion and homewares.

Greenery offers a lush, refreshing and revitalising shade and is symbolic of new beginnings according to the Pantone institute. A fresh and zestu yellow-green shade that evokes the first days of spring when nature’s greens revive, restore and renew they add. Encouraging us to reinvigorate, while being a colour that’s omnipresent – around us everywhere.

It’s easy to see why Greenery is described as a life-affirming shade, and emblematic of the pursuit of personal passions and vitality.

In Indian culture – Green also represents new beginnings, as well as the harvest and happiness.

While being a striking vibrant colour – Greenery looks great on many skin tones and can be mixed and match or worn all over with ease:

Greenery as a versatile “trans-seasonal” shade, it works with many colour combinations.You can contrast deep colour like maroon or navy with your Greenery to make the colour pop and add dimension to your outfit, or go Greenery all over for a more elegant look if in a lighter hue of Greenery.

Whether it’s a lgiht fabric, or a fully-embelished sharara or even a print lehenga and green jacket you can really make a statement with Greenery as a colour, simply because of the rawness of the colour palette, it offers a crisp and definitely fresh look when worn.
