While a pop of red with Mocha Mousse is perfect for the coming festive season this is a pairing we are excited to see all year round. Combined with cool shades of light blue this is the perfect combination for those who favour a cooler colour palette to try out this shade of brown.
Shades of Autumn
Deadstock Italian Wool Coating Fabric with Cashmere in Toffee, Cousette Botanical Garden Viscose, Ex-Designer Ornate Flower on Brown Crinkle Viscose
It's hard to think of any shade of brown without turning our attention to autumnal shades, in this case deep greens and rusty shades.
Neutral Blues

Mocha Mousse and Viva Magenta

2025 steps back in time to combine with the 2023 colour of the year - Viva Magenta. Mocha Mousse actually blends with mosts shades of pink, adding an earthy touch to this typically girly colour. Pick from light pink, dark pink, or a combination of both.
