2025'S Must-Have Shade: Mocha Mousse
Mocha Mousse blends warmth, sophistication, and timeless elegance in fashion.


A new year brings fresh beginnings, and with it, a new trend. When Pantone selected Mocha Mousse as the color of 2025, it wasn’t just about a hue – it was about evoking an emotion: warmth, serenity, and modern sophistication.
Inspired by the frothy foam of a latte and the velvety texture of chocolate mousse, Mocha Mousse also draws from the rich history of coffee culture. Named after the Mocha port in Yemen, coffee has long been a global hub for conversation and reflection. This deep cultural connection is now being revived as a contemporary fashion statement.

From Catwalks to Streets
Mocha Mousse has swept through the fashion world in 2025, making its mark on everything from the runway to everyday street style. Iconic brands like Hermès, Gucci, and Fendi have embraced this shade, with Mocha Mousse becoming central to the quiet luxury movement, taking center stage in elegant and refined looks.
Fendi’s Spring/Summer 2025 collection beautifully paired mocha tones with a romantic touch. Floral-embroidered dresses crafted from lightweight, transparent fabrics stood out, adding a soft, feminine allure to this earthy hue.

Hermès showcased Mocha Mousse with its signature timeless elegance. Oversized jackets and relaxed trousers with leather accents exuded a refined, sophisticated style that transitions seamlessly across seasons.

Gucci put a modern twist on this color, incorporating iconic details like suede mini dresses and bamboo-handled bags, which added a nostalgic, warm vibe to the Mocha Mousse palette.
A Color for All Seasons

The magic of Mocha Mousse lies not only in its rich, sophisticated tones but also in its versatility across seasons. In spring, it pairs beautifully with pastel shades, creating a fresh, stylish aesthetic. As summer heat sets in, it complements linen suits and lightweight accessories, bringing effortless elegance to the warmer months.

Mocha Mousse also has a natural affinity for the earthy tones of autumn, blending effortlessly with the romantic, warm hues of the season. In winter, it offers timeless warmth, seen in soft-textured coats and cozy knitwear that keep you stylish and comfortable.
Mocha Mousse in Beauty
The influence of Mocha Mousse extends beyond fashion – it’s also making waves in the beauty world. The "latte makeup" trend, popularized by style icons like Hailey Bieber, Bella Hadid, and Jennifer Lawrence, embraces elegant brown eyeshadows and coffee-toned lips, creating an understated yet sophisticated look.

This shade is not only perfect for everyday makeup but also a fantastic choice for evening glam. Mocha Mousse adds a touch of elegance and warmth, making it the go-to color for both daily beauty and special occasions.
