Not a soft pastel, #e44de7 is a loud, saturated magenta that nearly glows on screen. Its intensity earns it a spot in the 10 percent accent slot rather than as a full background. It pairs well with deep teal or near-black navy, and black text stays readable on it at about 6.5:1 contrast, enough for WCAG AA body copy.

What colors pair well with #e44de7?
Deep teal, near-black navy, and charcoal all give this magenta the dark counterweight it needs. Skip pale pastels, since they wash it out, and keep it to small doses so it stays an accent rather than taking over the palette.
Is black or white text better on #e44de7?
Black text is the clear choice, reaching about 6.5:1 contrast, which passes WCAG AA for body copy. White text drops well below that threshold and should only be used for large decorative type, never for small labels or paragraphs.
Is #e44de7 readable on white or black?
#e44de7 has a 3.22:1 contrast ratio on white and 6.51:1 on black. WCAG asks for 4.5:1 for body text and 3:1 for large text, so on white it works only for large text (24px, or 18.5px bold) and on black it works for body text. Try other pairs in the contrast checker.
