The body piercing industry eagerly awaits this big Pantone announcement every December. Fashion designers and others in the visual arts in 2022 around the world will be using this shade of Periwinkle, called Very Peri, as the centerpiece of their designs and product lines. Pantone says this year’s color is one whose courageous presence encourages personal inventiveness and creativity.

The Pantone website says this, “Displaying a carefree confidence and a daring curiosity that animates our creative spirit, inquisitive and intriguing Very Peri helps us to embrace this altered landscape of possibilities, opening us up to a new vision as we rewrite our lives. Rekindling gratitude for some of the qualities that blue represents complemented by a new perspective that resonates today, Very Peri places the future ahead in a new light.”

Additionally, “We are living in transformative times. Very Peri is a symbol of the global zeitgeist of the moment and the transition we are going through. As we emerge from an intense period of isolation, our notions and standards are changing, and our physical and digital lives have merged in new ways. Digital design helps us to stretch the limits of reality, opening the door to a dynamic virtual world where we can explore and create new color possibilities. With trends in gaming, the expanding popularity of the metaverse and rising artistic community in the digital space Very Peri illustrates the fusion of modern life and how color trends in the digital world are being manifested in the physical world and vice versa.”
As an accessory to our client’s personal fashion sense, we see body piercing jewelry as a compliment to what they normally wear and present to the world. Our duty, as a piercing studio, is to understand and act on fashion trends as they evolve throughout the year. In 2022 our showroom will be filled with both complimentary and analogous jewelry options our clients will love.
