Pantone Fall 2012 Fashion Report

Yeah, I know, I’m a nerd. I subscribe to Pantone’s newsletter :P

Check it out though! It’s pretty cool. This year’s Fashion Color Report.

Even though, as a student, I pretty much only print on my Epson Stylus Photo 1400 Inkjet, and don’t really send prints out much, I still think I’m going to splurge this year on a set of Pantone Color Books to help me decide what would look good on paper, not just designing for the screen. Yay color theory. God that class was hard. Thank Jan Fairbairn for that ~$300 I told you guys I spent on gouache the semester I took color so that I could make, among other things, a perfectly incremented twelve-step achromatic scale (which required about 150 steps before I chose the 12 that worked)
