LEATRICE EISEMAN, Executive Director of The Pantone Colour Institute, explains that this season's hottest colours "combine a level of comfort and relaxation with sparks of energy that encourage and uplift our moods." Topping the list, marigold. The warm shade of orange infused with yellow and bolder variations of the colour orange proved to be a staple in runway collections for Valentino, Gucci, and Versace, to name drop a few. The hard-to-miss hue—there's a reason it's the premium choice in construction site safety wear—has also been a prime pick on red carpets and our fave in fresh beauty looks. At Valentino, orange was rendered into statement pieces like a boxy duster coat, as seen on musician H.E.R. at the virtual Golden Globes, and a show-stopping fluorescent orange taffeta skirt, worn by Zendaya at the Critics Choice Awards. Gucci offered bursts of orange within prints and patterns, and in the Harry Stylesapproved jacket, worn as he accepted his Grammys. At Versace, bright flowy gowns and ocean-inspired prints made a splash. Spotted on the lips of celebs and on makeup artists Insta-feeds, after a year of hiding pouts under masks, the hue's optimistic energy is more than welcome. And with new releases like Tangerine Tease from Essie and Popsicle Picnic from CND, we'll be tickling our tips with sparks of energy, too. — Heather Marrin
