Pantone’s Colour of the Year, Mocha Mousse, is a rich, velvety shade. The colour beautifully bridges the gap between a traditional neutral and a statement. Its unique blend of depth and warmth makes it an excellent choice for everyone, regardless of skin undertone. In this blog, we’ll explore how to harness the versatility of Mocha Mousse. You will also discover how to enhance your wardrobe, whether you have a warm or cool undertone.
Before diving into how to wear Mocha Mousse, let’s draw inspiration from a painting by my grandmother, created decades ago. This artwork beautifully blends variations of Mocha Mousse with turquoises, whites, and browns. This masterclass is offering subtle contrasts to create visual interest. This principle can be applied to fashion; the amount of contrast in your natural features should guide how you pair colours with Mocha Mousse. If you have high contrast in your complexion and hair, pairing Mocha Mousse with bolder hues can be striking. For those with softer contrast, blending Mocha Mousse with similar muted tones can create a harmonious and sophisticated look.
If your skin has a warm undertone, glowing with golden, yellow, or peachy hues, Mocha Mousse can be your go-to neutral with a twist. The key is to choose versions of this colour that lean towards yellow-brown tones. These shades complement the natural warmth of your skin, creating a harmonious and radiant look. Incorporate Mocha Mousse in your outfits with earthy accessories, cosy knits, or a statement jacket. Pair it with complementary colours like olive green, mustard yellow, or a deep burnt orange to bring out the richness of both the colour and your complexion.
Those with cool undertones will find their match in Mocha Mousse shades that have subtle hints of pink or violet. This slight modification allows the colour to align beautifully with the cooler, bluish undertones in your skin, making it look more vibrant and refreshed. Consider Mocha Mousse trousers paired with a crisp white blouse or a sleek, grey blazer for a sophisticated ensemble. For a more casual look, mix in shades of navy or a soft mauve to enhance the cool undertones of both the colour and your skin.
No matter your undertone, here are a few universal tips for incorporating Mocha Mousse into your wardrobe:
