About this palette

This 5-color pastel palette runs from Favourite Lady (#E4C5D5) as its lightest tone to Brave Purple (#9B8DBA) as its darkest. It blends Idyllic Pink, Private-Label Pink, Favourite Lady, Brave Purple and Ode to Purple into a single set you can drop straight into a UI. None of the 10 in-palette color pairings clear the WCAG AA contrast threshold (4.5:1), so pair these colors with black or white for body text.

Gentle, low-saturation tones — ideal for wedding sites, baby brands, soft hero sections, and editorial layouts that lead with whitespace.
