Pantone recently announced its colour of the year and it is none other than, drum rolls please. Mocha Mousse! Yes, you heard it right, PANTONE 17-1320 Mocha Mousse, a testament of fine sophistication and earthy refinement is the colour of the year 2025.

Unravel The Quest - The Hunt Begins

Wondering what all the hype is about? Well! Each year The Pantone Color Institute releases Color of The Year to strike a conversation around color among the design communities and color enthusiasts across the world. While choosing this year’s shade, their team came across the constant quest for Harmony.

A Little Insider Thought!

According to Laurie Pressman, the Vice President of the Pantone Color Institute, “The everlasting search for harmony filters through into every aspect of our lives, including our relationships, the work we do, our social connections and the natural environment that surrounds us”.  

She further elaborated “For Pantone Color of the Year 2025, we look to a mellow brown hue whose inherent richness and sensorial and comforting warmth extends further into our desire for comfort, and the indulgence of simple pleasures that we can gift and share with others.”

Surprise? Not Really!

Well, the color did not really come as a surprise as we have been seeing this subtle brown hue this year with Hailey Bieber’s Rhode Espresso lip tint. Many designers too dipped their toes into Mocha Mousse as it made appearances at Hermès, Wiederhoeft, Gabriela Hearst, Miu Miu, Gucci and more.

Tried It Yet?

So, get ready to dive into the sensory pleasure of this colour that defines not just richness and sophisticated elegance but also timeless beauty with its earthly nature and stable, grounded presence in the nature around us.
