The color of Tiffany, Tiffany Blue, is one of the most widely recognized shades of blue in the whole world but the luxury jewelry and specialty retailer is now playing with a new hue. On April Fool's Day, the brand teased a "new House color" on social media and the color is now being incorporated into retail locations, furniture, fixtures and packaging to promote the brand's collection of yellow diamonds.
Those on Rodeo Drive will see that the location has been temporarily remodeled to play with the unmissable shade of yellow and for the first time, Tiffany has unveiled a yellow Tiffany & Co. box and shopping bag.
The April first stunt caused a stir online and it is sure to demand just as much attention in person.
