Pantone’s Colour of the Year for 2025
BY EMILIA ANDRIAMORA
For the 2025 season, you may be wondering which colours you should consider for manufacturing your new range, or which colours you should be stocking next.
Consider Pantone’s Colour of the Year – Mocha Mousse. Pantone’s vision for 2025 is linked to ideas of indulgence and luxury. According to Pantone, Mocha Mousse “nourishes our senses.” In addition, it can be incorporated into a variety of colour palettes adding a touch of sophistication.
A relaxed and elegant palette proves successful as seen through Skims’ collaboration with The North Face. Embracing warm brown tones, Skims and The North Face created a collection of winter wear that sold out instantly. The success of this campaign highlights the value consumers place on timeless and versatile fashion pieces. Linens Unlimited are the perfect example of elegant yet relaxed, as seen through their ‘Rustic Linen’ collection. The Carmen Rust & White Cardigan specifically, shows how simplicity is key in fashion.
On the other hand, Mocha Mousse can be used to create a unique blend, mixing warm and cool tones to generate a vibrant and exotic environment. This could mean mixing Mocha Mousse with Pantone’s Blue Curacao.

For example, you may choose to create bright blue coasters to fit in an otherwise warm dining area or taking KaLaf Artwork’s mixed media art piece, North Cronulla Rock Pool and adding that as the featured artwork in any warm-toned room.
It goes without saying that Mocha Mousse is versatile. Despite being a luxurious colour, Pantone’s Mocha Mousse promotes everyday comfort through its warmth. Like Hostwin, consider mixing with any pinks and greens for a natural and soft floral arrangement.
Whether you’re in gifting, homewares or fashion, consider creating products that will not only appeal to a consumer’s sense of comfort, but also seasonal trends. Although trends are not the most sustainable, a colour like Mocha Mousse is timeless. It provides a strong and versatile base. It can be incorporated in natural, luxurious or soft settings, giving you the opportunity to play around; whether you love vibrant colours or relaxed and elegant moods, Mocha Mousse will seamlessly blend into any environment.
