The Pantone Spring 2017 Fashion Color Report serves as an overview of designers’ color choices in new clothing collections. The colors are important for jewelers to know so they can help customers successfully color-block accessories. Here are five ways your peers suggest others color-block with Pantone’s Primrose Yellow.
“Primrose Yellow sparkles with heat and vitality. Inviting us into its instant warmth, this joyful yellow shade takes us to a destination marked by enthusiasm, good cheer and sunny days.” —Pantone
1. Give a Primrose Yellow outfit a jewel with contrasting colors to make a graphic statement.
“The black in the center stone and the accents of spinel create a sort of bumble bee effect that when paired with a garment of this color work well together.” —Royal Chain Group

2. Pair harvest tones with Primrose Yellow to further enhance the warmth of the shade.
