PANTONE TANGERINE 2012

Goodbye Honeysuckle, hello Tangerine Tango! Leading authority on color, Pantone LLC has unveiled the color of 2012, PANTONE® 17-1463 Tangerine Tango.

Fashion designers around the world, including Tommy Hilfiger, Elie Tahari, Adrienne Vittadini and Peter Som have already incorporated this color into their spring collections.

“Sophisticated but at the same time dramatic and seductive, Tangerine Tango is an orange with a lot of depth to it,” said Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute®. “Reminiscent of the radiant shadings of a sunset, Tangerine Tango marries the vivaciousness and adrenaline rush of red with the friendliness and warmth of yellow, to form a high-visibility, magnetic hue that emanates heat and energy.”
