A red thread, symbolizing the fight against AIDS, ran through several of the communal tables at this year's event. At a table designed by Kimberle Winzeler of Pauline Grace, red thread was wrapped around a tall candelabra.

"The cranberry bog that Tyger Productions created for Ocean Spray in November was definitely one of the most memorable. The juxtaposition of a beautiful table setup—which itself contrasted traditional and modern decor—and 900,000 cranberries in 21,000 gallons of water in the middle of Rockefeller Center in New York was so unique and so on-brand." —Anna Sekula, editor in chief

Fight Night
Events inspired by the legendary Moulin Rouge make way for plenty of red decor. At Fight Night in Washington in 2012, André Wells created an entryway to the event space reminiscent of the Moulin Rouge's signature windmill and red signage. The theme also leaves plenty of room for crushed velvet in red-wine hues that closer match Pantone's color of the year.

A pergola reminiscent of those found at Italian vineyards ran the length of the ballroom. After the program, staffers set up buffets underneath with late-night bites for the after-party crowd.
