Vibrant sophistication

Bright blues were popular in the Regency era due to the arrival of new pigments like Prussian blue, which provided a vibrant colour previously unattainable with natural dyes. This bold shade became a fashionable choice for interiors, symbolising wealth and sophistication and was often paired with white to create a striking contrast. Get the look with lively blues like Resene Matisse, Resene Kashmir Blue and Resene Azure, incorporating plush, blue-toned furnishings and classic patterns to evoke the timeless elegance of Bridgerton.

The soft apple shade of Resene Wallpaper Collection E307336 on the room divider complement the green and gold tones throughout the space. The plush velvet chair also adds a touch of opulence, creating a sophisticated and inviting ambiance reminiscent of Bridgerton’s settings.
