CLASSIC BLUE


Pantone Colour of the Year 2020 has been announced! And Pantone has gone back to basics for its 2020 Colour of the Year: Classic Blue or PANTONE 19-4052 to be exact.  I know what you're thinking: Classic blue, how boring! but remember it’s the colour of blue jeans and the sky at dusk, this blue is also the colour of royalty.  A shade lighter than navy but darker than sky blue, the colour is a timeless choice meant to embody stability and simplicity.

The shade is elegant, simple and enduring, and Pantone says it instills "calm confidence and connection".  As Pantone puts it: "This enduring blue highlights our desire for a dependable and stable foundation on which to build as we cross the threshold into a new era."

While this year's colour Living Coral was an "animating and life-affirming", 2020's shade "brings a sense of peace and tranquillity to the human spirit, offering refuge," according to the company.

While it’s nice to know what colour trend awaits us, you may be wondering how you’re actually going to wear classic blue. Classic Blue is such an easy colour to wear and to work into your existing wardrobe. Multiple fashion powerhouses such as Chanel, Marc Jacobs, Bethany Williams, Givenchy, and Gucci, have already incorporated Classic Blue into their spring/summer 2020 collections.  Also, the trend is already all over the street style scene.
