Fall 2012 - Pantone Predicts...for Jewelers




Fall 2012: The Magic of Color

“By playing to consumers' practical side with versatile neutrals, and boosting their confidence with bold, spirited hues, this skillfully balanced palette has something for everyone.” — Leatrice Eiseman, Executive Director of the Pantone Color Institute®

YES - Tangerine Tango was HUGE this Summer and the good news is...it is carrying into Fall - so wear your Spessartite Mandarin Garnets and Fire Opals or  color block your Tangerine blouse with one of the new Jewel Tones or Versatile Neutrals!

The versatility of the new palette is fabulous with a couple stand outs - If you look at the group at the end - Titanium, Rhapsody, Rose Smoke:
  •  think Amethyst and Rose Quartz in Silver (or Titanium, or Platinum)
  •  or Tahitian Pearls with a Platinum or Purple hue in any white metal!
A range of Platinum Pearls from Kamoka Pearls


Blue Gems are always a winner when paired with White Metals.

Lots of opportunities for Tourmalines with Pink Flambe', Ultramarine Green, and Bright Chartruese!

On another note - I saw some gorgeous Coffee Brown Gold at Jewelry Week this year - I can see a stunning Andalusite in Brown Gold flashing coffee browns, goldens and chartreuse!

...looking for a fashion MUST HAVE?  a grey pant, skirt or grey jeans to pair with all the fabulous new colors!

Take a look at this stunning video from the High Jewellery Line of De Grisogono of Geneva for an artistic display of all of the Fall Color Trends!
