Viva Magenta, Pantone's Fearless Pick for 2023
Pantone named Viva Magenta its Color of the Year for 2023, presenting it as a red rooted in the cochineal family, one of the oldest natural sources of crimson dye. The hex commonly used for it, #BB2649, lands between raspberry and brick: unmistakably red, but with enough blue to keep it from ever reading orange.
In practice it is bolder than burgundy and calmer than hot pink, a range that suits statement walls, event branding, and packaging. Because the shade arrives already saturated, it prefers quiet company — warm grays, deep navy, sandy neutrals. Used as a full-bleed slide or social background, it holds white type with ease and confidence.

Greige and sand give Viva Magenta the quiet neutral ground it needs, while midnight blue matches its intensity without competing for the same warmth.
