From their press release:
"Sophisticated but at the same time dramatic and seductive, Tangerine Tango is an orange with a lot of depth to it," said Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute®. "Reminiscent of the radiant shadings of a sunset, Tangerine Tango marries the vivaciousness and adrenaline rush of red with the friendliness and warmth of yellow, to form a high-visibility, magnetic hue that emanates heat and energy."

Great timing! Not ordinarily considered fashion related, but I’m starting the palette selection for our annual report, and all the colors I’d been looking at seemed really ’standard’ (read: bland and boring!) Think I’ll build it around Tangerine Tango – should be able to make it REALLY stand out!
