I like purple...just not too dark....medium range is very pretty.  Love lilac....that can be a beautiful color also.  Bring it on! So tired of olive greens....or frog green!

Not for me - purple looks awful on me.

 

I wear colors that complement my skin tone and hair color, not what 'Pantone' says.

I like it!  It's the color of my favorite football team (MN Vikings)!

Although I'm not a big purple fan, I've always loved the cooler iris (like the flower) shade, which is almost like the darkest shade of periwinkle.

'Ultra Violet' was chosen to evoke a counterculture flair, a grab for originality, ingenuity and visionary thinking. It reflects the idea of living with no box at all.  It is a cool shade, a complexity between the passionate red violets and the strong indigo purples, but with a touch of periwinkle.  It speaks to thoughtfulness, a mystical quality, a spiritual quality. "

 

Amid the heap of chaos and disruption in 2017, moving forward, the Pantone Color Institute believes the world needs to embrace the deep purple hue of 'Ultra Violet' as the color of the year for 2018

I see that color everywhere when I am looking at winter clothing. Kohl's have gone crazy with it. For some of their women's tops, they have 3-4 different shades of purple. Pretty as it is, it's just not my color.

I only like purple on eggplant.
