Well, what do you think? I like it better than the lilac-y color of this year.

It's got a nice shimmer but that's it. IT's kind of a cross between burgundy and chocolate brown no? More like a mahogany wood colour. Strange.

I agree with Kristin, it needs to be punched (or maybe the person who chose it?) LOL
 
I'm not a big fan of the color.
I'm with Kristin too... a little bit of punch wouldn't hurt.
 
Dark red is my favorite color, so I like it. I wish they'd chosen a shade with a bit less brown, but it makes me happy that it's going to be easy to find clothes in similar colors. But, what's with that name? Never heard marsala used for a color before!
 
I love purple, so this year's color was okay by me. This one is just . . . meh. But, hey, how much does their "color of the year" actually affect anything in real life?
 
It didn't jump out and catch my attention, but it's not terrible. I'd actually wear this colour -- and I sort of like how it's on a cream background in the picture. A cream blazer with a marsala top might be nice for work. Or a marsala sweater with a cream scarf? It would also be a good nail polish, I think.
 
Hmm. I'm a big fan of burgundy but this leans a little more brownish. I do like it with a little bit of shimmer as in the picture you posted.
 
how do you suppose they even pick these colors? just throw a dart at a board and say - yup, that's the one we'll go with??

I wonder this same thing, every year when they release the next years colour. The vast majority always hate it :D It does absolutely nothing for me either.
 
It reminds me of the 90s. That dark lip liner with the nude gloss, a slicked back hairstyle with light, but perfect bangs, and big hoops.

With everyone else, don't like it.
All the female news people in the DFW area are wearing a beautiful royal blue all of a sudden. No matter what channel you turn on someone is wearing it. Thought this might be the new color in 2015.

didn't read the replies..but maybe it's for the cowboys? lol
 
I can see where the color would be nice in make-up and clothing. I'm not a huge fan, but I'd like it in a lipstick.
 
Meh.
I'm torn. I normally don't like the colors they pick anyway. I'm o the fence though. I like that's warm and rich but I wish it had more of a pop. Something a bit more stand out.
 
I don't hate it. I don't like really like it, but I don't hate it. Which is an improvement over the past 2 years' colors. lol
 
I was more attracted to the background colors there, mint and the cream lol! It's okay for me, I think.

As I understand it, it's mainly for fashion designers and make up artists. They go by the colour of the year for their collections and shows. Of course, I could be totally and completely wrong, but I did hear them talk about the Pantone colour of the year on Project Runway once. lol.
