Market Research for Designers: Color Palettes

If you make clothing, handbags, or other accessories, you know you've got to keep up with the hot new colors. You can download a PDF swatchbook from Pantone, called Pantone Fashion Color Report Fall 2009. It's late to be looking at colors for 2009, but it's also free, and if you're still building your line or accessories, it's perfect.

Pantone also publishes the PANTONE VIEW Colour Planner, which is $750. But take a look at their press release: they don't include swatches, but it does discuss the eight palettes for use in women’s wear, menswear, and active wear. palettes
