PURPLE GETS BOOST WITH PANTONE HUE HONORING PRINCE
In tribute to one of the most iconic musicians of our generation, color authority Pantone has teamed up with The Prince Estate for a specially released purple hue: Love Symbol #2. The Pantone color was inspired by his custom-made Yamaha purple piano, which was originally scheduled to go on tour with the performer before his untimely death at the age of 57.
The color pays tribute to Prince’s incredible mark on music, art, fashion and culture. Prince’s 1984 movie “Purple Rain” with its Academy Award winning soundtrack and eponymous song galvanized his association with purple. While the spectrum of the color purple will still be used in respect to the “Purple One,” Love Symbol #2, will be the official color across the brand he left behind. “The color purple was synonymous with who Prince was and will always be. This is an incredible way for his legacy to live on forever,” said Troy Carter, Entertainment Advisor to Prince’s Estate. [...]
A PURPLE BOOST - Fashion is expected to get a boost from the color purple, which has already been seeping in as an evolution from all the Millennial Pink and blush. Often referred to as a lilac, this lighter shade of purple is feminine and flattering and appeared on major Resort 18 runways.
Icon Trend is looking forward to feeling energized with this new color palette. We are in the business - Fashion - to ‘feel’ something! Our senses are hotwired for emotions and excitement. Fashion makes these emotional connection when our eyes and feelings are locked into loving a particular color shade. Ranging from soft lavender and rosy lilac to vibrant violet, the shade of royalty is perfect for accessories and beyond. PURPLE shades are particular well suited for accessories and refresh and energize any existing wardrobe. Edited by SAWA
