The Color Palette

The Mardi Gras color palette is a bold celebration of tradition and festivity. Vivid purple exudes mystery and royalty, embodying the spirit of New Orleans’ rich history. Electric magenta adds a playful, modern twist, radiating energy and passion. Gleaming gold reflects the opulence of historic French Quarter balconies and the shimmer of carnival finery. Deep emerald brings a grounding contrast, reminiscent of lush bayou landscapes and timeworn wrought iron. Teal blue nods to the Mississippi River’s ever-changing depths, adding a cool, dynamic edge. Together, these hues create a palette that is both regal and rebellious, capturing the unrestrained joy of Mardi Gras street fashion.
