COLOR THEORY We know people are deeply affected and influenced by color — both psychologically and emotionally. With this in mind, color continues to be a key influencer in fashion and product trends for 2018. In response to consumer desire, designers are showing more colorful collections with new hues and unexpected color pairings. This trend promotes the opportunity for increased expression through branding and product, plus more color-matching capabilities.

THE FRUIT OR THE COLOR: WHAT CAME FIRST? According to studies, the word orange appears in the English language as early as the 13th century referring to the fruit. The color orange was initially called Geoluhread, which means yellow-red. On a related note, it is widely accepted that there is no single English word that is a true rhyme for orange.

MORE IS MORE From bold detailing to clashing prints and excessive layering, Maximalist styling is here for 2018. The "more is more" trend embraces the idea that demure minimalism isn't the only player in modern design; the audacious mixing of material, texture, and pattern is creating visually enticing products. Color-changing technology, light-up options, and customized decoration, as well as a general hybridization of features, reflects this cool and bold trend. In "more is more," fortune favors the brave.

NOSTALGIA As the years go by, everyone develops a degree of nostalgia — that yearning for yesteryear — but recently, the nostalgia trend has been breaking into entertainment, fashion, food, and product like never before. Smart brands are engaging with consumers, especially Millennials, through retro roots as we're seeing vintage brands achieve new life. This timely trend is also supported by emerging social media lingua franca like "Throwback Thursday” (#TBT) and “Flashback Friday” (#FBF). Here's to the throwbacks.
