The Pantone Institute told which shade will be the most relevant in the coming 2022. Recall that the colors of 2021 were yellow and gray - this is an exceptional case when not one, but two shades were chosen.
This time there were no exceptions in determining the color of 2022 in clothing. Pantone named the color of the year 2022 was the shade Very Peri. It's blue, but not classic, as it was in 2020, but complex and multifaceted with splashes of purple-red. Interestingly, this is the first time in history that color legislators did not choose it from an existing catalog, but created it anew, taking into account the situation in the world.
The staff of the Institute was inspired by the unusual beauty of the periwinkle flower - its flowering has an amazing blue-blue-purple color. In addition, the plant has an amazing resistance - it retains a fresh look even in extreme conditions. And such an analogy is quite in the spirit of the current situation – after a series of lockdowns and self-isolations, you need to remain cheerful and sociable and, of course, not be afraid of experiments.
Color will now be actively used in interior design, manicure and makeup and, of course, in fashionable wardrobes. Since the shade was invented, it is impossible to find it right now on the shelves of stores - it takes time until the textile industry picks up the trend color. In the meantime, we will use similar and close to it shades in the bows.
There are several ways to apply the new color of the year in your wardrobe:
Very Peri is quite saturated, but has a pastel substrate that makes it acceptable for both accent and total use.
Accents in fashionable outfits with the color of the year try to arrange with accessories - a handbag, belt, hat or scarf will help dilute the image in any style.
If you are going to make a total bow, pick up things of similar, but different shades - so the image will be more voluminous. An exception may be suits - trouser or skirt, it is not necessary to dilute them with shades.
When combining with other colors, be careful - even the now fashionable colorblock is easy to make overloaded. If you overdo it with the number of contrasting colors, you will get not a stylish outfit, but a tasteless traffic light - we recommend building an image in 2-3 colors.
When composing images and selecting suitable colors for combination, it is necessary to refer to the main colors of the shade - blue and purple.
Thus, successful shades for the combination will be:
In addition to the above combination options, try combining the Shade of Very Peri in clothing with:

Do not be afraid to choose things of an unusual cut - the brightness that is inherent in the blue-purple shade still leaves room for complicating things. The main thing is to combine such clothes with something calm - black pants, for example.
Try to play with shades. The color of the year is a shade with a clear characteristic, but tones close to it are also in the list of current colors for 2022 – from pastel to dark. In the photo - beautiful lilac trousers made of light fabric in combination with a gray sweater.
Similar in color palette outfit, but with shoes with heels.
The color of 2022 is in clothes for women who love business style. You can slow down the degree with a white classic shirt under the jacket and black boats instead of red shoes with a strap.
A bright sweater or pullover is a good acquisition for autumn and winter. In combination with blue or blue jeans you will get a simple but stylish casual.
Fans of layering and eclecticism are given the following example: a sweatshirt complemented by a knitted cardigan. A great example of the fact that street-style is convenient.
Another business suit, but far from a business image. Add a daring T-shirt to your pants set and you won't have time to notice how the office style will turn into a stylish street.
A simple but fashionable combination is an oversize sweater and black high-waisted trousers.
Jackets from someone else's shoulder are now at the peak of popularity - using them in the image, in combination with the main color of the year, you will create a fashionable combo.
In winter, autumn and early spring, when the weather is not pleasant, use the trend for multi-layering. Blue-violet can be made the main color of the outfit, or "hide" it in layers.
Suitable for cool weather and total bow in related shades. And do not forget to wear a fashionable hat - it will protect your head from the cold and complete the image.
When choosing outerwear in the color of the year, pay attention to coats - long or shortened, as well as fur coats. Down jackets and jackets look less successful in this shade.
If you have to go to a social event or you are just looking for a dress for a holiday, it is not passing by the most fashionable color of 2022 in clothes. There are types of evening dresses for every taste - from combinations in the linen style, to more complex, created as if for the red carpet options.
When you want to diversify the office style, choose a shirt in blue-purple color. It looks great with a business suit of almost any shade, but best with black or gray.
Do not forget that it is not necessary to fully dress in bright blue-purple - you can limit yourself to an accessory or shoes.
