Pantone accessorises us with its colourful swatch

It’s not quite Marc Jacobs, but it should put a colourful spring in many a fashion-conscious designer’s step. Pantone Universe is bringing out a range of accessories from rubber photo-albums to corduroy bags in the hues and shades you know and love from your favourite Pantone colour reference system.

Toppermost clobber is probably the Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec-designed ‘bucket hat’ (absolutely must-have if Sarah Jessica Parker ever invites you to a Happy Mondays revival party), with Karim Tassi’s PVC raincoat and Christophe Pillet’s sassy satchel not far behind.

And where can you get all this technicolour gear? Why, Incognito in Manchester of course. Check out its website at www.incognito-uk.co.uk.
