According to vogue.com, Pantone just announced its 2025 Colour of the Year, and it’s sure to warm your soul! As 2024 draws to a close, it’s comforting to know that some things remain constant, such as the arrival of Pantone’s Colour of the Year announcement. In news released this morning, the colour institute introduced the Colour of the Year for 2025: Pantone 17-1230 Mocha Mousse. This rich, chocolate-y hue immediately brings to mind comforting treats like coffee and chocolate, offering a warm and inviting atmosphere.

Laurie Pressman, vice president of the Pantone Colour Institute, explains why this creamy neutral is so resonant right now: “For Pantone Color of the Year 2025, we look to a mellow brown hue whose inherent richness and comforting warmth extend into our desire for simple pleasures that we can gift and share with others.” Mocha Mousse is grounding, dignified, and versatile, making it perfect for both minimalist and richly decorated spaces across all design and colour-conscious industries.

“A versatile shade infused with inherent sophistication and earthy refinement, Pantone 17-1320 Mocha Mousse creates a strong chromatic foundation,” says Pantone. “Revel in your own personal luxury. With its subtle elegance and sensorial richness, Mocha Mousse empowers you to create moments of luxury that may be intimate in scale but can extend a sense of indulgence throughout the day.”

While 2024’s Colour of the Year, Peach Fuzz, was similarly warm, Mocha Mousse takes it a step further, embracing the earthy tones and nutty browns that have gained popularity in interior design over the past few years. This shade will no doubt excite trend forecasters who have been heralding the return of brown. We can’t wait to see how this shade will play out in 2025 and beyond.
