During the New York Fashion Week spring/summer 2026 everything is about personal expression. This is a powerful counterweight to artificial intelligence and the creeping uniformity.
According to Pantone Color Institute, designers choose: Inside this season a daring mix of familiar tones, lively accents and calming neutral colors. The institute reports this in a current press release.
“The colors of this season give space to experiment and press our own stamp on fashion,” said Leatrice Eiseman, Executive Director of the Pantone Color Institute. The five most important colors that are highlighted in the message are: acacia, a striking yellow tone with green under tones; Altrosa, a romantic, gray rosaton; Teerosis, a feminine rosaton with a touch of red; Burned sienna, a rust brown color that reminds of the regenerative power of nature; Amaranth, a mysterious violet tone.
