What color is Dulux Party Balloons?

Dulux Party Balloons 16RR 43/277 is a mid-tone pink with a muted rosy-mauve cast. Its softened saturation keeps it from reading like a sugary pastel, while the red base gives it a gently warm presence. In daylight, this color can look like a clear dusty rose; under warmer evening bulbs, its pink notes become fuller and more pronounced. It suits bedroom walls, a dressing area, or a painted feature wall paired with off-white trim, warm grey, or deep plum accents. Matte black hardware, pale oak, brushed brass, and natural linen all give Party Balloons a grounded, contemporary context.
