Like faded rose petals or a dusting of powdered blush, this pale magenta barely raises its voice. #dfc5da is heavily lightened and very unsaturated, which makes it a natural large background field where its airiness can carry a layout. It washes out next to plain white, so anchor it with plum or charcoal. Black text sits comfortably on top at about 13.1:1 contrast.
