Hex color #dd1aba graphic
Think hot pink bubblegum pulled toward violet. #dd1aba is a loud, saturated magenta that earns its keep as a small accent: buttons, highlights, calls to action. It glows against deep teal and near-black surfaces but washes out beside white. Black text on it reaches about 4.9:1 contrast, enough for body text under WCAG AA. It sits close to other shades of purple.
