PANTONE COLOR FOR SPRING: MONACO BLUE...

The second blue of the Pantone Fashion Color Report, MONACO BLUE is a classic navy shade that offers both strength and depth to the entire palette. Combine this hardy blue with most any other colors especially Poppy Red, Linen and Emerald for a fresh collegiate look. 

Here's how several designers translated Monaco Blue on the red carpet and on the runways...
