A hot red against a deep cobalt works because the two sit far apart in both hue and value, so each makes the other look more saturated, while the pale Anise tint gives the eye a resting field. It comes from Pantone's NYFW Spring/Summer 2027 top ten, which pairs Chili Pepper and Princess Blue as the season's high-saturation core.
