The garments featured on Closet Case Vintage may be period pieces, but it looks like they’re ahead of the pack. While browsing through the CCV etsy site today, I noticed many of the items correlate with Pantone’s color trends for Spring/Summer 2012. (And yes, I did say 2012.)
One of the first color trends we’re going to see for Spring/Summer 2012 is California Sundrenched. As detailed on WGSN, Women’s knits will feature decorative touches with retro patterns to add a youthful and kitsch feel to summer vintage looks that exude 1950’s California glamour. WGSN says, “Seduced by nostalgic visions of deluxe motel living and a Palm Springs fantasy lifestyle, this Cinematic knitwear trend evokes images of American society types draped on poolside loungers, sumptuous cocktails in hand, dressed to thrill.” Pantone colors include golden yellow, mint, fruity orange, coral reds, hazy pink, and inky purple. Here is the mood and color of California Sundrenched Women’s Knitwear for Spring/Summer 2012. (Click picture for larger view.)
Here are some of the looks currently for sale on CCV’s website that correlate with the above Pantone color pallet:

30's BLUE Cotton SUNDRESS with a Gathered Bust and Pretty White Buttons - $98
Next, for Spring/Summer 2012, the youthful gals are going to be sporting an infusion of brights with hints of black. As detailed on WGSN, this occasionwear collection features “Dented, moulded, lasered, and rubberised trashy materials share space with the sheerest, shiniest, luxury fabrics, while enjoying the same treatments of relief and transfer printing, taping and graphic appliqué.” Pantone colors for this look include a palette of neon pink, yellow, and green with highlights of putty, black, and metallic lead.
