Twice a year, Pantone invites a hush-hush group of creative types to one European city or another to predict the following season's biggest color trends. At the most recent Hunger-Games-of-color, those nominated as Tribute included an ashy blush pink, the moody purple every girl seems to be wearing in her gel mani lately and blue in the same shade of about eight countries' Olympic leotards.
