Palatial Pastels: Our Pastel Pink Print Collection
Inspired by Dolmabahçe and Çırağan Palaces, Palatial Pastels is a pastel pink print that reflects the CAMILLA love of regal storytelling. It captures a rich intersection of Ottoman tradition, European Rococo and Baroque design—reimagined through a soft pink palette drawn from the Ceremonial Hall’s grandeur.

Palatial Pastels fuses delicate florals wrapped in lilac and periwinkle blues, porcelain tile motifs, and gilt scrollwork into a harmonious pink tableau. The result is richly layered pastel pink dresses, suiting, accessories and kidswear.
”When beauty sings her sweet serenade, my soul must answer. I ascend the staircase of the Dolmabahce Palace tilting my head skyward to the Ottoman domes above. These celestial realms make the most mighty of us mere subjects. Architectures both storied and divine dance a surprisingly supple waltz. Bombastic Baroque and raging Rococo take the polished hand of Neo Classicism. From great hall to atrium, ballroom to balcony, it’s an exquisite symphony of crystal, light and colour.”
—Founder and Creative Director, Camilla Franks
