What is the most fashionable color of this year in your opinion? Yellow Red? This is the wrong answer. Today, the trend is soft colors and one of the most fashionable is the shade of dusty rose. Where it is used, we will understand in this article.
What color?
Dusty rose is commonly described as one of the most beautiful flowers. And it is called gray with a pink tint. It is not entirely clear why, then, the ashen rose is considered a shade of pink. In fact, any color has a lot of variations, depending on its saturation. Therefore, an ashen rose can be not only gray, but also soft pink and even purple.
Who created this color? The first mention of it was made in 1977. It was at this time that Colin McCullough's book The Thorn Birds was published. The main character Maggie Cleary was dressed in a gray dress with a pink tint. This outfit stirred the minds of readers, and when the television series of the same name was released in 1983, the color ash rose took pride of place in the fashion industry.
Successful color combinations
In order for the ashes of a rose to look advantageous, it must be properly supported with other shades. Myselfby itself, the grayish-pink color is plain, but if it is supplemented with contrasting white, it will sparkle in a new way. The same can be said about the deep gray color. It will perfectly complement a dusty rose.
A combination of colors that go well with pink-gray: dusty brown, beige, soft cornflower blue, lilac, burgundy.
If you can't find the right color, just see what goes best with cool gray. After all, pink ash is clearly not a warm shade, so all colors with a bluish or greenish tint are well combined with it.
In floristry
It is clear that the color dusty rose was taken from nature. The flower has such a color during its withering. It becomes pale, its leaves shrivel and fall off. But today, floral art is at its best. Therefore, color designers can give the rose absolutely any shade with the help of paint. The flower is not painted with a brush or airbrush. The pigment is added to the water in which the rose stands. The flower is saturated with vital energy, and at the same time it takes away the granules of color. So, within 2-3 days you can make a fashionable dusty rose out of a standard white or cream rose.
Where are flowers of this shade used? Well, of course, in wedding bouquets. Most often they are supplemented with decorative greenery and gypsophila. Also, ashy roses often coexist with white or pink. A bouquet of these flowers is perfect for blondes who want to opt for something delicate.
Also, ashy roses are presentedguys to their lovers. But not as a flower of parting, but vice versa. They believe that love will live forever, as a rose can do. After all, even in a dried state, the flower remains beautiful.
Clothed
The color of the dusty rose was especially loved by the designers. Most often, wedding or evening dresses are sewn in this shade. One of the leading designers Elie Saab constantly uses grayish pink color in his collections. It is this shade that makes the girl feminine and fragile. But it is worth considering that, as in the case of flowers, such dresses will suit blondes, while a brunette in a dusty rose dress will look almost naked. Incredibly often you can see evening dresses of this shade on movie actresses walking along the red carpet. Even the royals occasionally wear trendy color schemes.
But not only evening dresses are sewn in dusty rose color. Clothing that is considered casual can also be in this trendy shade. Today, on the shelves of stores you can see cute sweaters, blouses and even pants in pale pink with a gray tint. What can I say, designers even sew coats in this color. Not surprisingly, other accessories such as hats, shawls, clutches, shoes and even watches are in demand in this shade.
In the interior
Today it is fashionable to hire designers to furnish your home. And like in any other field of art, interior design has its own trends. In every season you canhighlight one or another color, which experts give their preference to. Moreover, it can be the same shade that is used in fashion shows. So, the color dusty rose, from floristic art and from boutiques, moved to interior design. Today you can see many living rooms and bedrooms, which are made in grayish-pink shades. Often this color is used to decorate women's boudoirs or bathrooms.
But not all people want to live in a too dim interior. Therefore, the dusty pink color can be used not as the main one, but as an additional one. For example, in a white interior, pinkish-gray accents look very gentle.
Many photographers love the dusty rose color. Therefore, they design their studios in this way. Moreover, not the whole photo studio, but one location may look like this. This is not surprising, because the human figure is not lost on the dusty pink color, but on the contrary, it becomes brighter.
