The announcement of Pantone’s Color of the Year always generates excitement and sets the stage for the coming season’s trends. This year, we are thrilled to share that Mocha Mousse has been chosen as the color of choice for the upcoming months. Mocha Mousse is a warm, rich, and comforting hue that embodies both sophistication and nature’s raw beauty. It’s a color that evokes feelings of earthiness, groundedness, and a deep connection to the natural world. As a brand whose core mission is to repurpose the beauty of nature through unique and handcrafted designs, we couldn't be more delighted with this selection.
At the heart of our earth-toned collection, brown has long been a staple - symbolizing the organic beauty of the earth. Through the natural textures of feathers, brown tones form the foundation of many of our pieces. For 2025, Mocha Mousse takes center stage, inspiring a range of designs, styles, and statements that embody this versatile and enduring color. From Bow Ties to Statement Earrings, we are curating our top picks to ensure that you stay on trend and fully embrace the season’s rich aesthetic.
Let’s explore some of the key items from our collection that bring Mocha Mousse to life and allows you to wear this color with pride.
The Turkey Collection: A Nod to the Past, A Tribute to Nature
Our turkey collection holds a special place in our hearts because it marks the very beginning of our brand's journey. The first piece ever created was a turkey feather bow tie, and it remains in our collection as the “Original Bow Tie.” This feathered masterpiece is a true reflection of the color Mocha Mousse. As light hits the turkey feathers, the colors shift and shimmer, with hues that are lighter in the sun and darker in the shade. This natural iridescence is one of the defining characteristics of the piece, giving it a magical quality that makes it stand out while maintaining a sense of subtlety.
The Original Bow Tie is an enduring classic, one that adds a touch of rustic elegance to any outfit. It’s perfect for formal occasions or as a stylish accessory for a more casual look. The beauty of this bow tie lies in its simplicity - the natural browns and deep, rich tones are both understated and attention-grabbing, offering versatility and refinement in one package.
If you're looking for something with a bit more texture and depth, we recommend our Old Ben Bow Tie. This piece takes the classic turkey feather design and elevates it with a unique twist. By combining both brown and black turkey feathers, we’ve created a look that feels richer and more intricate. The layering of feathers not only adds visual interest but also increases the depth and contrast of the bow tie. It’s slightly darker than the Original Bow Tie, making it an excellent choice for those who prefer a bolder, more dramatic look. But like the Original, it still allows light to play with the colors, resulting in a stunning interplay of light and shadow that makes this bow tie truly one-of-a-kind.
No outfit is truly complete without the right accessories, and our Donerail Plum Thicket Pin and Kemmerer Plum Thicket Pin are perfect companions for the Turkey Bow Tie. These pins are more than just accessories, they are miniature works of art, each one meticulously foraged by our co-founder himself. These intricate thicket designs, forged from brown turkey feathers, adds an element of texture and sophistication to your ensemble. The glistening turkey feathers combined with the rich earth tones, create a harmonious, natural aesthetic that feels both refined and connected to nature.
For those looking to create a fully coordinated look, consider adding our Dorsey Pocket Square, Daufauskie Cufflinks, and Cooper Canyon Belt to your outfit. Each of these pieces are made from turkey feathers, so not only will you stay on trend with Mocha Mousse, but you’ll also be fully dressed to the nines. Whether you’re attending a formal event or a more casual gathering, these pieces will help you stand out in the best possible way.
For those who prefer a more adventurous take on Mocha Mousse, our Laramie Thin Cuff and Laramie Wide Cuffs offer the perfect combination of turkey feathers and other natural materials. Paired with the Moorcroft Bow Tie, this pairing allows you to experiment with the color of the year while still staying true to your own unique style.
The Pheasant Collection: A Bold and Distinctive Statement
For those who love bold patterns and want to make a statement with their accessories, our Pheasant Collection is the perfect fit. Known for their distinctive patterns and vibrant colors, pheasant feathers add an element of grandeur and eye-catching appeal to any outfit. The Cypress Shadow Belt is a standout piece from this featherway, featuring a textured look that is perfect for adding a dash of personality to your wardrobe. Whether you're wearing it with casual jeans or pairing it with a suit, this belt is guaranteed to elevate your style.
For more formal occasions, our Pheasant Cummerbund takes the spotlight. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, each cummerbund takes over eight hours to craft, making it a truly special and one-of-a-kind accessory. The pheasant feathers are arranged in a way that highlights their natural colors and patterns, creating a visual texture that’s both striking and elegant.

Whether you're attending a gala or a wedding, these pieces will ensure that you’re dressed to perfection.
The Quail Collection: Subtle, Natural Elegance
Only need a hint of mocha? We recommend viewing our quail collection, which is for if you prefer a more subtle, natural look. The quail feathers feature soft, muted tones of light tan and white, offering a delicate and understated aesthetic. This collection is perfect for those who want to stay on trend with the color of the year without overwhelming their outfit.
The delicate nature of quail feathers makes them especially special, as each feather is uniquely patterned and features a soft blend of tans and whites. The Grey Bobwhite Bow Tie is one of the standout pieces in this collection. This piece exudes a natural, effortless elegance that’s perfect for any occasion. Whether you're wearing it to a casual dinner party or a more formal gathering, this bow tie offers a refined yet laid-back look.
To complement the Grey Bobwhite Bow Tie, we recommend the Cogdell Plum Thicket Pin, Brays Cufflinks, Bevy Pocket Square, and the Trippin Tipsey Belt. Each of these accessories adds just the right amount of texture and depth to your outfit, while still maintaining the soft, earthy tones of Mocha Mousse. The quail feathers offer a light, airy touch that complements a wide range of outfits, making this collection a go-to choice for staying on trend without being too bold.
For women, the Anna Statement Earrings, Thomasville 2.0 Stud Earrings, and Gailey Stud Earrings are perfect additions to the Quail Collection. Each piece is carefully crafted from quail feathers, allowing for a delicate yet eye-catching statement.
