How to Wear 'Peach Fuzz', Pantone's 2024 Color of the Year

Now in its 25th year, Pantone's Color of the Year program has proven to be quite prescient when it comes to identifying the hues we'll be drawn to in the near future. And this week, the global authority of color standard announced its pick for 2024: shade 13-1023, dubbed "Peach Fuzz".

Much like the stone fruit's soft texture, the pinkish-orange creamsicle shade inspires us to "instinctively...reach out and touch," according to a press release. "Peach Fuzz" was specifically chosen to invoke peace, tenderness and compassion during times of turmoil — very fitting.

In fashion, we can see this translating into sumptuous textures and delicate details. (And it will no doubt make its way into beauty trends through rosy pouts, warm cheeks and peachy manicures.) Pantone even teamed up with a few brands to be the first official purveyors of "Peach Fuzz"; among them is Cariuma, which already dropped a staple canvas sneakers in the playful color. But the new "it" color can also be found among existing offerings from Bottega Veneta, St. John, Sporty & Rich and many more.

As a Georgia Peach myself, I'm especially keen on this shade — and there's no need to wait for the new year to begin sporting it. Shop wearable pieces, from sneakers to sunglasses and everything in between, in "Peach Fuzz" below.
