Thoughts on Pantone Color for 2026 - White

[ Edited ]

Pantone's color of the year 2026 is a white called "Cloud Dancer".

 

What are your thoughts on it?

Will you wear Cloud Dancer apparel and/or buy more?

Will you add home decor in Cloud Dancer?

White by definition is the absence of color.

Uh, no. 😶

My thoughts on it are "no thank you"!  I can't go 5 minutes without spilling or dropping something on a white shirt that causes a stain!  Never happens on colored shirts though.  Sheesh.

@LdyBugz

Hahaha me too! I always refer to white shirts as my food magnet. I swear sometimes I'm like a 2 year old when I am eating, especially when I am wearing white or a light color.

I worked in the science and medical fields. I wore white uniforms and white lab coats for almost my entire career. No more white clothes for me.

@PhilaLady1  Food magnet is right!  My kids bought me an adult bib a few years ago as a joke.  Before I opened the package, they said it was an accessory for my white shirts!  LOL!

I think the Pantone "deciders" either just phoned that one in or threw their arms up in despair.

@Desert Lily No, I won't wear it or buy more. I have white pants that I wear all year long and that's enough for me.

 

No, I won't decorate with it either. I like lots of color not white in our home.

 

Seems to me that Pantone just phoned it in this year. But what do I know? LOLWoman Tongue

 

Thanks for posting.
