Okay, so I’m a designer, and this comes up a lot in my field. The correct term is “colorway”—one word, no space. It’s the standard in design and fashion industries.

“Color way” isn’t technically wrong, but it’s less common and can make you look like you’re not in the know. If you’re writing professionally, definitely go with “colorway.”

For reference, Pantone’s website uses “colorway” consistently. That’s a pretty solid source if you ask me.
