Dessy's green palette runs from pale Celadon to near-black Evergreen — and the right shade comes down to season, venue, and formality. Lighter greens suit spring and daytime; deeper ones read as evening and autumn.

Pale Greens: Celadon, Mint Green, Willow

Celadon is barely-there — it reads almost silvery in certain light and suits outdoor daytime ceremonies best. Mint Green is a degree crisper and more distinctly green. Willow lands between the two with a soft blue-gray lean. All three wash out in artificial light, so they work best at outdoor or very well-lit indoor venues.

Sage

Sage is the most universally flattering green in the catalog — earthy enough to complement warm skin, neutral enough not to fight cool undertones, and formal enough for evening in the right fabric. When you're uncertain, sage is the safe call.

Mid-Range: Seagrass, Mojito, Jade

Seagrass has a blue-green lean; Mojito is more yellow-green and carries real warmth; Jade is the most vivid of the three. These work for spring and summer weddings where sage reads too muted but hunter reads too heavy.

Hunter Green and Evergreen

Hunter Green is a jewel-toned forest green that photographs with depth and drama; Evergreen is deeper still — near-navy at a distance in low light. Both suit formal indoor venues and autumn-through-winter weddings where pale greens would disappear entirely.

Order swatches before committing — green shifts significantly between fabric types. Sage in Lux Chiffon reads lighter and cooler than Sage in Satin Twill.
