Default Spring 09 color preview

Hi everyone!

So I would like to say that I was at Tano today and the designer pulled me aside to show me some ideas for Spring 2009. He has a new design assistant who just started today, and she is super nice and totally cool.

We started discussing the palette for the Spring 2009 Crunch leather, and I showed them our thread with everyone's color suggestions. He loved the photos that you all posted and thought they were great! We got out the pantone color chips and selected a gorgeous bright cherry red, bright orange, deep yellow, a cross between lime and kelly green, a saturated turquoise, a raspberry, a medium purple, a rich caramel, and black. The colors looked awesome!

The velvet leather got more earthy tones (saffron, pine, etc..) and another squishy leather (as yet unnamed) got lilac, cornflower blue, pear green, pale grey, and white.

So I hope you all love the palette for next Spring... it was after all created with your help!

I still haven't decided on my 2nd Fall bag and I'm dreaming about the green and the lilac. Trouble!

I will be very glad to see the Lilac. I will most definitely be buying a lilac
bag for next Spring and perhaps a cornflower blue bag which to me is kind
of like periwinkle. I love periwinkle blue.

Me too. Periwinkle was always my favourite shade in the Crayola box as a child. And that's exactly how I pictured it, in a squishy leather.

Alexandra, I love how the company is considering our wants and wishes, through your hard work and dedication. It's like a grassroots democracy!

Eeeeeeek! OMG! Cherry red??? That was my #1 hope on my suggestion list -- I must, must, must have something in that color!!!! It's one of my favorites!

Pear and pine sounds delicious, too :)

Alex -- you're totally amazing with all you do for us!

Tano has a great marketing plan. For the current season, you try madly to get the right bag in the right color that has just sold out everywhere. They entice you with the colors for the next season, and you know who must pre-order so you don't lose that favored color! Now we are looking forward to a year ahead, picturing our favorite colors that haven't even been run yet! I'm in for a cherry red!
