Maximal is the 21st century's definition of flamboyant femininity. Florals play a dominant role in this palette's inspiration. The jewel tones of blue, yellow and red are rich and opulent, creating a supremely confident, complex palette full of splendor and delicious excess.

This palette belongs to a doyenne's domain or a precocious girl's boudoir, or the living space of a woman in her prime who plays by her own rules.

But what makes this palette even more luscious is that men can use it too, if they have developed the refinement to mine its masculine undertones, or if they have the selfassurance to show their feminine side.
