Taupe, Dark Cyan and Sea Green lead the list. Each partner is a real named colour with the reason it works — a wheel relationship, a neutral that carries it, or a pairing lifted from a palette or brand system that actually shipped — and every pair opens in the palette tool.

shippedTaupe is paired with #af5a8d in 5 real palettes, including Dunkin''s brand system and Clay & Linen, as the lead colour.
Dark Cyan #008b8b
complementaryDark Cyan sits directly opposite #af5a8d on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight.
Sea Green #2e8b57

Royal Blue #4169e1
shippedRoyal Blue is paired with #af5a8d in 3 real palettes, including Ubisoft's brand system and Chase's brand system, as the accent.
Charcoal #36454f
