#8822ccrgb(136, 34, 204)hsl(276, 71%, 47%)oklch(0.506 0.237 306.2)Lilac Spring on this page is the real value, not a screenshot: exact hex, RGB, HSL and OKLCH, ten tints and ten shades, classic harmonies, and WCAG contrast with fixes — plus the curated palettes it appears in and any public brand that adopts it.
Colors that go with Lilac Spring
Denim, Olive Green and Charcoal 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.
Denim #1560bd
shippedDesigners have shipped Denim with Lilac Spring: 4 real palettes, including Linkedin's brand system and Peacock, as the lead colour.
Olive Green #808000
complementaryOlive Green sits directly opposite Lilac Spring on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight.
Charcoal #36454f
neutralshippedCharcoal is the text near-black for Lilac Spring: softer than #000 and cool enough to feel like part of the same palette.
Royal Blue #4169e1
analogousshippedRoyal Blue is Lilac Spring's neighbour on the wheel, so the two read as one family — use it for hover states, gradients and secondary surfaces.
Taupe #483c32
shippedTaupe is paired with Lilac Spring in 3 real palettes, including Superhuman's brand system and Datadog's brand system, as the lead colour.
Teal #008080
triadicshippedTeal completes a triad with Lilac Spring — three hues spaced evenly round the wheel, the classic way to get energy into a palette without a clash.
Sea Green #2e8b57
split-complementSea Green is a split-complement of Lilac Spring: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement.
Deep Sky Blue #00bfff
shippedDesigners have shipped Deep Sky Blue with Lilac Spring: two real palettes: Render's brand system and Kraken's brand system, as the supporting colour.
