It’s Time to Color Your World: Embrace Pantone’s 2026 Color of the Year, Cloud Dancer

Every year, the renowned color institute Pantone selects a Color of the Year, setting the tone for upcoming trends. For 2026, the spotlight is on Cloud Dancer — a billowy white imbued with a feeling of serenity. This color symbolizes a fresh start and a clean slate, inviting you to take a breath and get lost in the clouds.

What is Cloud Dancer?

As the Female Announcer describes, “Our Pantone Color of the Year selection for 2026 is a billowy white imbued with a feeling of serenity.” It signifies our collective desire for renewal: “Cloud Dancer signifies our desire for a fresh start.” While it may evoke images of all-white simplicity, don’t be fooled — this shade is far from boring!

Cloud Dancer in Culinary Art: The Pavlova at Dolce Mio

The elegance of Cloud Dancer is perfectly embodied in the Pavlova, a dessert named after the famous Russian ballerina Anna Pavlova. Wanderson Oliveira, co-owner of Dolce Mio, shares, “It’s a meringue, made with white egg whites, and it takes a long time to make a pavlova.”

For Chef Giovanni Mineo, co-founder of Dolce Mio, patience is key. He explains, “Look, if you do this and it doesn’t go down, then it’s ready.” This delicate dessert is crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, offering endless possibilities for flavor variations. Wanderson adds, “The fun thing about a pavlova is that you can make it with so many different flavors.”

To complete the dreamy look, some nails are dusted with white chrome powder. “It’s really representative of there being nothing wrong with having your head in the clouds; it just means you’re dreaming bigger,” she adds.
