Time to start thinking about autumn tones for jewellery making

· · · Comments

We know that summer is no where near over (or at least we hope not!) but if you run a jewellery business or just like keeping up with the trends it’s important to know what’s coming next. The pantone colours for autumn 2014 (or as they ‘call it colors for fall’!) should be on your horizon. LJS tutor Anna Campbell takes a look at the colours and how they can translate into jewellery (or jewelry).

Pantone fall 2014

Pantone are the self styled ‘global authority on color’ and their announcements are taken seriously in the fashion marketplace. The colours they have announced for the autumn season are an interesting and unusual palate. These are likely to be well represented in the high street so having jewellery that goes will ensure you’re ahead of the trend.

 Purples and mauve feature heavily in the report. Radiant orchid was announced as the colour of the year and is still trending going into autumn/winter.

This necklace from shamelessly sparkly is very now but would also create a great contrast worn with darker autumn colours.

Mauve mist is similar to radiant orchid but slightly more muted. These micro macrame earrings bring some lovely texture to the colour.

Royal blue and bright cobalt are two shades that feature in the pantone palate for autumn. These bright blues are favourites of mine and this beautiful kumihimo bracelet from Kidder Custom Creations provides a lovely pop of colour for the wrist.

Aurora red provides a splash of bright colour. I love these cufflinks from Love Dazzle

A more expected tone for autumn is cognac brown. This lovely bracelet from Crystabelle tones in very well.
