Today’s episode of Luxe Insider is inspired by Pantone’s newly revealed color of the year 2025: Mocha Mousse.
Unveiled just days ago, this inherently warm hue—with the sensorial richness of the finest coffee and chocolate—perfectly captures the global mood for comfort. Expect to see it everywhere, from fashion to interior design, beauty, packaging, and beyond.
Whether browns are a core part of your style DNA or you’re just beginning to experiment with earthy hues, let Mocha Mousse inspire your color combinations. You can take cues from Pantone’s palettes—rooted in exotic places, springtime gardens, and more—or embrace our Mocha Mousse Mood(board) approach:
When finding the perfect combination for your mood or occasion feels challenging, think of the color as the dessert itself—and simply choose your toppings.

Monochromatic Flow
If you’re drawn to chocolate shavings, cocoa powder, cinnamon, caramel, toffee, praline, nuts, figs, dates, or dulce de leche—it’s time for tone-on-tone dressing.
Berry Hues
If you’re craving garden, forest, or specialty berries, it’s the moment to play with reds, pinks and purples. You might even mix in greens or oranges, depending on your selection.
Citrus Accents
If you’re tempted by juicy, refreshing citrus—think oranges, tangerines, grapefruits, lemons, and limes—it’s the perfect way to juxtapose Mocha Mousse’s sweet, comforting flavor with a fresh, tangy twist of acid hues.

Today, you might prefer a mousse adorned with chocolate-dipped strawberries; tomorrow, one garnished with mint-and-vanilla-infused whipped cream. The possibilities are as limitless as your palate’s imagination.
