Black and beige may be your go-to colours, but Pantone has a slightly different preference for the year ahead. Meet Viva Magenta, now known as Pantone’s Colour of the Year 2023. A shade descending from the red family and expressive of a new signal of strength, it’s brave and fearless, promoting a joyous celebration with its exuberance. “This year’s Colour of the Year is powerful and empowering,” says the global authority on colour.

“It is a new animated red that revels in pure joy, encouraging experimentation and self-expression without restraint, an electrifying and a boundaryless shade that is manifesting as a stand-out statement. PANTONE 18-1750 Viva Magenta welcomes anyone and everyone with the same verve for life and rebellious spirit. It is a colour that is audacious, full of wit and inclusive of all.”
