Each year Pantone, a global authority on color in the design industry claims a color to be ‘Colour Of The Year‘. They study all the industries including film, entertainment, design, fashion, tourism and selects the color to be most present. For 2013 the color Emerald was chosen. (Pantone 17-5641)

Emerald in menswear has been present this fall in mostly pants, and outerwear; from blazers to coats. Above is some Fall/Winter looks from Club Monaco, H&M, and Gant. In order to make emerald work and still not stand out too much is to keep all the other articles of clothing neutral colors.
