Choosing a shade of purple

Purple splits into two very different colors on clothing. Team purple is the deep, blue-leaning purple of college uniforms and spirit wear; lavender is the pale, soft purple of fashion basics, spring events and awareness causes. A few darker plum and eggplant colorways are listed with the family as well. Mauve reads pink on fabric, so it's on the Pink pages.

Team Purple (504 styles)

Team purple is the deep, saturated purple of college and high school uniforms. Suppliers sell it as Purple, Team Purple, Sport Purple, Campus Purple and Collegiate Purple. Team purple reads as bold, proud and a little regal.

Lavender (77 styles)

Lavender is the pale, soft purple between light gray and pink. Suppliers sell it as Lavender, Lilac, Orchid and Wisteria. Lavender reads as calm, gentle and fresh.

What purple says on clothing

Purple has stood for royalty and ambition for centuries, and on clothing it still reads as confident and a little bit unexpected. It stands out from the sea of navy and black without shouting.

Purple school colors

Purple schools include Washington, Clemson, Northwestern, Kansas State, LSU and TCU. Purple is also the color of many awareness causes, including Alzheimer's, domestic violence awareness and pancreatic cancer.

Official color codes: University of Washington school colors, Clemson University school colors, Northwestern University school colors, Kansas State University school colors, Louisiana State University school colors and Texas Christian University school colors.
