How to Wear Pantone’s Colors of 2021 Next Year

If you haven’t heard yet, color company Pantone officially named it’s 2021 colors of the year: PANTONE 17-5104 Ultimate Gray and PANTONE 13-0647 Illuminating (a yellow shade), expressing optimism in the face of dark times. If you want to incorporate these colors into your wardrobe next year, here are a few ideas as to how you can do so.

Pop of Color Accessories

With grey being such a wearable neutral and yellow such an eye-catching color, Pantone’s 2021 colors lend themselves perfectly to wearing a neutral, grey-based outfit with a pop of color yellow accessory like a handbag or belt.

Stripes

If you want to go for a look that more closely brings together both grey and yellow in equal measure, opting for a grey-and-yellow striped piece, like this long-sleeved top, is a great way to tie a classic pattern in with this color palette that is very much of the now.

Yellow Outerwear

Are you ready to bring a little bit of warmth and sunshine into this difficult, dreary winter? Popping a bright yellow winter coat over your outfit is a perfect way to make a statement with Pantone’s 2021 colors in a bold, unapologetic way.
