How to Style Pantone’s Softest Shade Yet: Cloud Dancer
Light, tranquil and intentionally understated, Cloud Dancer has already stirred debate.
The Pantone Colour of the Year 2026 has landed, and it’s honestly not what we were expecting.
Introducing Cloud Dancer—a soft, airy white that taps into our collective craving for calm. Described as a hue that embodies quiet reflection, it’s a gentle shift from the rich tones we’ve embraced in recent seasons.
Light, tranquil and intentionally understated, Cloud Dancer has already stirred debate, with the term “recession indicator” being thrown around in the comments. But given how spot-on last year’s Mocha Mouse proved to be, we’re willing to trust the process before we make our call.
In fashion, we’re already seeing the not too cool, not too warm shade comes to life through sheer layers, lace details and fluid silks—an ethereal, dreamy palette that feels modern yet timeless (not to mention incredibly bride-coded). Ready to embrace the soft-focus trend? Our curated Cloud Dancer edit is below.
