Pantone- autumn colors 2025 – Inspiration for your individual style
The new Pantone fall colors for 2025 offer an exciting mix of depth and warmth. Dark tones such as Magical Forest, Hot Chocolate, and Chili Oil meet earthy shades such as Desert Sun and Bronze Mist. The palette is complemented by bright accents such as Poppy Red and Salted Lime, as well as elegant highlights such as Lavender Blue, Fanfare, and Fig. Together, they create an atmospheric mood that is designed to nourish and cheer us up in winter. This palette allows you to create earthy, luxurious tone-on-tone looks or add eye-catching accents with striking colors.
My most important tip in advance: always bring your best colors close to your face, so you can also incorporate the colors of this palette elsewhere in your wardrobe.
1. Earthy elegance – back to nature
With “Hot Chocolate”, “Chili Oil”, and “Bronze Mist”, brown and sand tones dominate this year’s fall palette. They convey warmth, comfort, down-to-earthness, and enjoyment – perfect for the transition into the darker season. These colors are ideal for basics such as coats, pants, or knitwear that you can mix and match again and again.
My tip: Earthy tones look particularly elegant when paired with gold jewelry or shiny fabrics such as satin or silk. This creates a look that is both suitable for everyday wear and elegant.
2. Delicate lavender blue – lightness in autumn
„Lavender Blue” is a grayish, pastel blue shade that brings softness and lightness to the otherwise dark autumn fashion. It is reminiscent of clear winter skies and gives your outfit a modern touch.
Style idea: Combine lavender blue with gray or anthracite for business looks, or use the shade as an accent in accessories such as bags or scarves.
3. Powerful poppy red – an expression of energy
„Poppy Red“, a strong poppy red, remains the color of passion, love, but also dominance, eroticism, and danger. Red will definitely make you stand out, but it can also be a balancing act that makes you appear untrustworthy or too open-minded. Opt for matte materials if you want to wear red in a business setting.
Style idea: A red coat is a real statement piece that immediately attracts attention. If you want to tone it down, opt for red shoes or lipstick for an expressive finish.
4. Desert Sun – earthy spice note
„Desert Sun“ is a dark orange with a warm, earthy vibe. The shade is reminiscent of oriental spices and lends your outfits a cozy depth. It is not garish, but brings warmth and character to fall fashion.
Style idea: Desert Sun looks particularly beautiful in soft materials such as knitwear or corduroy. Combined with neutral tones such as camel or off-white, it creates a harmonious, stylish fall look.
5. Fig – sensual depth
„Fig“ is a dark, berry-like violet inspired by ripe fruit. The color conveys sensuality, depth, and a touch of luxury. It’s perfect for adding a mysterious and elegant component to your fall look.
My tip: Fig unfolds its full splendor when combined with gold jewelry or shiny materials. Ideal for evening looks or elegant business styles with recognition value.
6. Salted Lime – fresh accent
A rather unusual fall shade: “Salted Lime” brings luminosity and freshness to the darker season. The yellowish green has a revitalizing and slightly irritating effect. A real eye-catcher for people who want to look edgy.
Style idea: Perfect for accessories such as handbags or statement shoes to add an exciting twist to your neutral fall looks. If you’re feeling brave, wear Salted Lime as a complete statement piece – for example, as a dress or blazer.
7. Magical Forest – mysterious elegance
“Magical Forest”, a dark forest green, deep, earthy, and luxurious at the same time: “Magical Forest” is a color that radiates calm, strength, and a connection to nature. It can be combined in many ways – with warm earth tones as well as cool blue tones.
My tip: a blouse in Magical Forest exudes authority and confidence without being obtrusive. It is particularly exciting when combined with lavender blue or bronze mist for a modern contrast.
8. Fanfare – elegance in motion
A deep, dark turquoise: “Fanfare” combines the calmness of blue with the liveliness of green. Definitely my favorite this season. The shade looks elegant, luxurious, and fresh at the same time. Ideal for anyone who wants to give their fall style a dynamic yet serious touch.
Style idea: Fanfare harmonizes beautifully with black or anthracite, but can also be worn as an accent to beige or Bronze Mist. The color looks particularly elegant in high-quality materials such as silk or satin.
