need to incorporate vibrant color to grab the consumers’ eyes and entice them to buy.” says Leatrice Eiseman, executive
director of Pantone Color Institute, in her introduction to the report.
Why is the Pantone Fashion Color Report So Special?
Pantone is the most widely recognized color standard in the world and is used as a tool for the fashion industry. Every
season at New York Fashion Week it surveys designers and collects feedback on the most prominent color collections and
puts them together in its seasonal report. The Pantone Fashion Color Report for Fall 2009 features the top 10 colors for
women's fashion, along with designer sketches, quotes and headshots.

With such bold fashion elements, shoes will be more subtle this spring/summer to avoid over styling. Neutral tones of
champagne, caramel and taupe as well as florals are popular this summer
Wedges are hot, clogs and stylized oxfords are going to be this season's perfect complement to edgy clothing and accessory
styles. Lace-up booties, peep-toes, especially peep-toe booties come back with a vengeance for the warmer weather.

Handbag Spring/Summer Trends
Soft embellishments, multi pockets, over-sized Bags and classic shapes are what is in for handbags spring/summer 2010.
While last year brought us chains and heavy zippers, this year brings us softer, more subtle embellishments. Things to look
for when it comes to soft embellishments: rouching, pleats and weaving of the exterior material; interesting straps and
handles such as braiding or leather woven through (small) chain; fringe; mixed media (leather with suede or calf hair trim);
and small metallic closures. Additionally, patent leather is considered a soft embellishment, provided there are no other style
elements to distract from the patent.
