Back then, she was running a high-flying PR firm in Los Angeles, working with luxury hotels, art galleries, and clients on Rodeo Drive.

The Pantone Color of the Year for Fall 2025 is Mocha Mousse, and it’s no coincidence that this color has made its way into fashion this season. It’s described as a warm, rich brown hue, evocative of chocolate and coffee, and is meant to evoke feelings of comfort and nurture. This sounds like a perfect
