Like a fine wine that tastefully fulfills the palate with complex sophistication, the color of the fruit can stir consumer desire. Thus, Pantone, an X-Rite company and the recognized global color authority, has announced Pantone 18-1438 Marsala, “a naturally robust and earthy wine red,” as the Color of the Year for 2015.
Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute, says, Marsala is “an appealing and sophisticated shade that’s flattering against many skin tones.”
She says Marsala “pairs exquisitely with monochromatic mixes of peachy pinks, and sparkles against antiqued gold metallics, offering an assortment of lipstick and blush options. Marsala illuminates a range of smoky-neutral color combinations, making it a captivating eye shadow color that can be worn from morning until night. Add an overlay of bronze for a dramatic look that suits any eye color, or use Marsala as a go-to finishing touch on nails.”
