  • Brights 2018 to 2027
  • In-Colors 2010 to 2012

Poppy Parade is a deep, vivid red with a bold, warm feel. It suggests poppies, red flowers and remembrance, while still reading as a flexible color rather than a single literal object. The shade has enough personality to stand on its own, but it can also support nearby colors when used with related tones, crisp neutrals or deeper accents. Depending on the surrounding palette, it can read as classic red, apple red, rose red or holiday red, which gives it useful range for seasonal, natural, floral and themed designs.
