Pantone standardizes colors for certain industries, but their color of the year is only one of many opinions. Pantone gets some people into a room and decides what the color trends might be. Sometimes they're right sometimes they're wrong. I don't think last year's Pantone colors of the year really caught on, so they're definitely not always right..
