Each fashion season, the company Pantone completes a survey with designers at New York Fashion Week to compile results on what the top colors will be for the upcoming season.They put their results in the Pantone Fashion Color Report. It looks like Spring 2009 will continue will vibrant pops of color against rich neutral tones.

Here are the top 10 colors they selected for the upcoming season:

palace blue

lavendar

super lemon

salmon rose

fuscia red

rose dust

slate grey

vibrant green

lucite green


So, are these colors already being represented in the spring merchandise available in stores? I would say so! The tank tops,below, are available at Old Navy!

interesting-it looks like three different kinds of greens. I do tend to get sucked into the colors for the season. Thanks for posting this!

The only time I really buy the colors of the season are if they are colors that I like and that look good on me. I hated most of the colors last season (mustard yellow looks horrible on me). I like a lot of this seasons (laveder, salmon rose, rose dust), so I can see myself buying some of these.

It totally depends. Some colors call to me, and if they're on-trend, all the better. But anything that makes me look ill or splotchy? No way, no how!

Those colours are great - luckily I have quite a few in my closet!

I choose the colours that suit me and leave the rest - so for me they'll be the fushia red, palace blue, rose dust, lucite green and slate grey.

I like to add some new colours into my wardrobe, as often I'll find I have colour gaps as the colours haven't been around for a while, so new colours fill out my options.

I like the palace blue color, wear that a lot!

This is cool ... every single one of these colors are in my wardrobe, lol! And not just in warm-weather clothes.

I love color. It makes me feel happy and really invigorates me, both mentally and emotionally. Isn't that weird? I love being surrounded by bright colors. Both wearing them and having them in my home environment.

Though I DO need the "anchor" of neutral shades in my wardrobe, as well. I particularly like the gray.

I'd be really interested to see who is on the committee to choose these "top colors" and how they are chosen. Regardless, I vaguely like them all, but I probably would have said that for the vast majority of ten-color sets.
