Marsala is declared as the Pantone colour of the year 2015. It's hearty,stylish,seductive n impressive-all at the same time! This jewel hue is a combination of intense shade of brownish wine and a hint of rust, which complements any skin tone. this hue with an earthy appeal can be translated effortlessly to fashion,beauty,interiors,home furnishings and industrial designs.Equally appealing to both men and women, Marsala offers a big scope for experimentation and creativity. The finishing of the fabric plays an important role. A matte finish highlights Marsala's organic nature;while adding a sheen gives a completely different message of luxury and glamour.
This versatile hue can be used in all possible fabrics like linen and lighter fabrics in summer and leather,wool and silk in winter. Being a stronger colour , it works better as a subordinate colour instead as a basic colour in any look. Classic retro silhouettes and silk blouses with feminine cuts look fab for evening wear. For men a leather jacket or marsala coloured denim or stylishly wrapped scarf around the neck in this tone can make a style statement. Also a classy vintage velvet bow clubbed with a pair of deep wine patent leather oxfords can give that stylish edge to a man's formal wear.
PAIRING
Whether in a flat or textured material, or with a matte or gloss finish, this highly varietal shade combines dramatically with neutrals, including warmer taupes and grays. Because of its burnished undertones, sultry Marsala is highly compatible with amber, umber and golden yellows, greens in both turquoise and teal, and blues in the more vibrant range.
BEAUTY
The best part of this colour is that it can be worn both during day and night as it adds the right amount of glamour to both the looks. Wearing Marsala nails with an evening outfit will make you stand out in the crowd. It can be used on your eyes,lips,cheeks and collar bones to create a natural magic.
Wearing both your outfit and make up in Marsala is a big NO.
Marsala is going to be the colour of the marriages happening in this year.
