One hue held at two distances: the pale blue and the deep navy are the same family separated by roughly 45 points of lightness, and the near-white keeps the result from collapsing into a gradient. Poseidon is one of Pantone's five seasonless A/W 2026-27 staples, and cool blue is on Pinterest's 2026 list — the two forecasts agree for once.
