## Colors that go with #cc61b5

Named partners (harmony on the OKLCH wheel, co-occurrence in curated palettes and brand systems, and the neutrals that carry it), best first:

- **Cadet Blue** #5f9ea0 [harmony: complementary] — Cadet Blue sits directly opposite #cc61b5 on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/cadetblue
- **Charcoal** #36454f [role, pool] — Charcoal is the body-text near-black for #cc61b5: its slight blue cast keeps type crisp beside a warm colour where pure #000 looks heavy. Seen in: Hasbro (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/hasbro-com). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/charcoal
- **Olive Drab** #6b8e23 [harmony: split] — Olive Drab is a split-complement of #cc61b5: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/olivedrab
- **Royal Blue** #4169e1 [pool] — Royal Blue is paired with #cc61b5 in two real palettes: Loom's brand system and Ubisoft's brand system, as the lead colour.

- **Dark Goldenrod** #b8860b [harmony: triadic] — Dark Goldenrod completes a triad with #cc61b5 — three hues spaced evenly round the wheel, the classic way to get energy into a palette without a clash. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/darkgoldenrod
- **Medium Purple** #9370db [harmony: analogous] — Medium Purple is #cc61b5's neighbour on the wheel, so the two read as one family — use it for hover states, gradients and secondary surfaces. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/mediumpurple
