Brown is Back: Meet 2025's Color of the Year

Pantone, the boss of colors, has announced its top pick for 2025. Drumroll, please. . . it's a soft, cozy brown called Mocha Mousse. This isn't just any brown; it's a warm hug wrapped in a color. Think of it like a coffee break after a long day. It's that comforting. Eiseman, Pantone's color guru, says this shade isn't just humble. It's fancy, too. It takes brown from "I'm just a basic color" to "I'm extra in the best way. "

Pressman, another Pantone bigwig, adds that Mocha Mousse tickles our fancy for comfort and sharing stuff with others. It's all about coziness and good vibes. Pantone's color experts spend lots of time watching runways, interior designs, pop culture, and psychology to pick the color of the year. This is their 26th time doing it, and Mocha Mousse joins the league of past favorites like Sky Blue, Peach Fuzz, and Viva Magenta.
