PANTONE works in collaboration with lingerie and underwear brand Hanky Panky to celebrate the Color of the Year and its 25th anniversary. As a result, the spectrum of undergarments alters the World’s Most Comfortable Thong by Hanky Panky. It is a signature Lace thong and the styles vary from low-rise to original rise. The silhouette is known for its soft feel and flexibility which adapts to the body naturally for comfortable movement.
Laurie Pressman, vice president of the PANTONE Color Institute shares, "Partnering with Hanky Panky offers a wonderful opportunity to commemorate the past 25 years of the PANTONE Color of the Year, showcasing the journey from 2000 to present and highlighting how color reflects and influences society and global culture. It’s exciting to see our PANTONE Color of the Year selections continue to resonate and remain relevant, even decades later. In today’s era of Y2K nostalgia, this collaboration is a delightful walk down memory lane and a unique holiday gift for yourself or someone special."
