Every year, the Pantone Colour of the Year sets the tone for design across categories; and kidswear is no exception. For 2025, PANTONE 17-1230 Mocha Mousse takes centre stage. A rich, grounding neutral that feels both fresh and comforting. While earthy tones have traditionally thrived in adult fashion, our Product Specialist believes that this versatile shade presents new creative opportunities for children’s apparel.
Why Mocha Mousse Works in Kidswear
Kidswear brands need colours that feel inviting, practical, and versatile. Mocha Mousse checks every box.
It’s a wearable, dirt-friendly neutral that holds up to the realities of everyday play while still looking stylish. Unlike lighter neutrals that show stains easily, this on-trend colour for children’s clothing is practical for active kids; ideal for parents who want clothing that lasts beyond one wear.
Beyond function, Mocha Mousse brings a warmth and softness that pairs beautifully with pastels, muted primaries, or nature inspired tones like olive, dusty pink, and soft cream.
It works seamlessly in gender neutral designs, making it perfect for brands looking to create timeless, unisex pieces that appeal to modern parents.
