Dynamic color trends in fashion magazines: (A) Pipeline of data processing for color trends on fashion magazine covers (time interval 2000–2022). (B–F) Color trend dynamics the fashion magazine Cosmopolitan: (B) Trend colors in RGB color space. (C) Upper panel: Trend colors of the respective magazine projected into the plane that explains most variance of all trend colors in CIELAB space. Lower panel: Trend color sequence after projection onto the circular subspace in the plane described above. (D) Time-shifted sum over color vectors in a moving bin of 8 months over time. (E) Month-to-month change between the trend colors over time (absolute first derivative from the panel above). (F) Comparison of the color trend dynamics in E against the dynamics of a color sequence that was randomly shuffled over time (n = 267 trend changes, p-value refers to Wilcoxon rank sum test).
