The ColoRit Color Formula Guide: More Than 500 Shades of Inspiration!

Posted by

It's that time of year, friends! We've been hard at work bringing you the hot new colors for Fall 2012. Inspired by the color masters at Pantone and top designers of the catwalk, we've assembled all new color palettes to inspire you to create the new looks for the coming season.

Of course, the Fall Pantone colors take center stage when it comes to fashion inspiration...

We've matched all the colors in the Rit Color Formula Guide to Pantone’s Top 10 fashion colors and if there was no match, we created a brand new recipe!

Tangerine Tango, the color of the year, is still going full force with it's vibrant, fiery red/orange glow. We're also loving the bold color pop of Bright Chartreuse and Pink Flambé. Round out the palette with smoky French Roast and deep Olympian Blue for a classic Euro-feel.

Want more? We've put together some tantalizing palettes for the hottest trends we've been noticing on the fashion horizon.

All shades of grey steal the show, whether standing along or paired with bold brights. It's a look that crosses over effortlessly from work to play in a heartbeat. Accents and allover patterns in fire-engine red are aligned to create a stir in full-skirted dresses for a popular retro-Dior style. Watch for an emphasis on feminine flair heading down the runways this season.

Not into to fashion? Well, maybe it's time for a home makeover! We've been checking out the landscape of the hottest interiors and pulled a few palettes to get you started.

We're digging all manner of hand-crafty goodness. Traditional colors found in handmade pillows stitched with crewel embroidery were the inspiration for this color palette. It's a warm homey feel that will create a charming, inviting atmosphere.

Want to pump up the tempo in your abode? Well, hot Tangerine Tango, Pantone’s color of the year, creates a striking accent in this modern home décor palette.

Set that mellow mood with sulty tones. Grey with purple undertones steps into home décor and pairs up with lavender, raspberry and chartreuse accents for a fresh new look.

Well, that's just a small slice of the color fun for home and fashion at the ever-expanding ColoRit Color Guide. Come stop by and see for yourself!
