Lusty Gallant

The Lusty gallant was originally the name of a dance popular in Tudor England, but somehow, in the late 1500s, its name became attached to a pale shade of coral pink. Quite how or why this happened is unclear - but according to the Elizabethan writer William Harrison, the dressmakers at the time had a penchant for giving increasingly fanciful names to the colours of their clothes in the hope of making them more appealing to buyers.

The Lusty Gallant Ghost is fashionably attired in coral pinks.
