Pantone ‘color of the year’ is important enough that it will seep

into our everyday living whether we like it or not.  Clothing, furnishings,

packaging...it’ll be everywhere. Pantone is the Vogue of color.

You say, "Pantone is the vogue of color", hmmmm, not my thoughts.

 

When Andy finally experiences the "bull" from this nightmare job and boss, and throws the phone in the fountain, she represents many of us who could care less what Anna Wintour of Vogue has to say about fashion and/or color.  I think all of us tend to wear what we like and not by what others think we should wear (color and style)!

 

Although, I do love this movie and Meryl Streep who portrayed her.  "That's All", lol.

It’s much better than the last color they picked. That green was atrocious

Wow.

How could you have missed the whole point of the movie?

 

In fact at the end, when Andy went to the newspaper job interview,

she said she ‘learned a lot’ working at Vogue.  

And obviously she learned a new style & appreciation of the fashion

industry....or she would’ve gone back to her sad blue sweater &

ugly black shoes when she met her ex at the restaurant at the end.

 

No, she learned the fashion industry dictates many, many things

even in other industries. In our conversation on this thread,

it’s the color.  The Trend of Color, thus Pantone is the Vogue of Color.  

Even Andy finally realized that at the end. She did change her style.

It wasn’t the company, but the boss/politics she didn’t like.

Pretty color, but "it is a cool color," not for me.

 

DD will look fabulous in it. Smiley Happy

YES! I love purple I wore a turtle neck sweater this color just the other day. I have seven various shades of purple I wear all winter even a coat . Every room in my home has purple in it except my kitchen. Even have an eggplant shade love seat.

I woke up this morning and thought, “wonder what the Pantone color for 2018 is?”

I know I’m late to the party, having spent Oct/Nov with a URI.

So please forgive if this has already been posted.

For those who like to wear purple (me) rock on.

For those who don’t, I’m sorry.

yep, cool toned as is Meryl Streep... go for it!

Yes! I made the choice to continue the discussion for any who would like to participate in this subject further, rather than starting a new thread.
Thanks, hon❣️
