Get Ready for More Purple

December 13, 2017 By Michelle Lamb -

LebaTex – Allison Eden Studios

Ultra Violet may be Pantone’s Color of the Year for 2018, but a quick glance around the Showtime textiles market in December revealed that Ultra Violet is not the only purple trending for next year.

From amethyst to royal and from lavender to plum, purples made surface designs look fresh. Seen in both printed and woven fabrics, they were never reluctant to be the center of attention. However, most purples were found within a broader palette, working as accents that supported range of colors. Here are a few of The Trend Curve’s favorites:
