Color Trends for Business:
Fashion
companies, hair care companies, cosmetic companies etc., have
the difficult task of "forecasting" color. Forecasting color
basically means that they must select colors for their products "before"
they they
know for certain that consumer will actually like the color.
Due to production lead times (time it takes to produce a given product
and deliver it to market), companies must forecast (guess) at the colors
consumers will enjoy for the upcoming season. For example, if it takes
four month to design, manufacturer and transport clothing to a retail
store, that means the colors must be selected at least four months
before the selling season begins.
