Colors of the times

Been indulging in art history and fascinated with a green from the late Victorian era (will maybe post more about that another time) but it led me to search out the forecast for the current year. As 2019 is well under way, the trends are becoming obvious, but Pantone among others will convene a panel years in advance and determine the colors, pigments, dyes, that manufacturing will start to produce in order to get products onto the shelves for consumers. The current year (and last, too) saw a lot of pink(s) and greens as well as black and other very dark colors. Matte Black? Hmmm, time to have a late 80’s revival?
