Pantone's Pick for 2012's Top Color: Tangerine Tango

Every year, Pantone makes a bet for the color that will become the shade of the year. Last year's pick was Honeysuckle, and this year, the industry leader is betting on a saturated reddish-orange. Here, the hue hits the runway in the form of a feathery dress at Christian Siriano.
