Travel Clothes and Accessories Inspired by the Pantone Color of the Year 2025

The 2025 Pantone Color of the Year has been announced. Mocha Mousse is a soft, warm brown that Pantone describes as “simple and comforting,” and the hue feels especially fitting for the world of fashion right now. Mocha Mousse is a rich, cozy color that evokes the same feelings as a cup of hot chocolate or coffee on a chilly day. Its warmth and versatility make it universally flattering, perfect for adding a touch of comfort to any outfit.

Inspired by this announcement, I set out to find travel-friendly clothes and accessories that feature the soothing and elegant shade. Whether it’s a fashion-forward suitcase, cozy lounge set, or comfortable sneakers, this color blends relaxation with sophistication — exactly what you want when you’re traveling. Mocha Mousse is a rich neutral. Easy to style, yet full of depth, it works seamlessly on materials like leather, suede, and knits alike. Keep reading to find 15 travel-ready pieces I found that capture the essence of Mocha Mousse, with prices starting as low as $14.
