How to Generate a Color Palette
Upload any image — fabric swatch, saree photo, garment, or design inspiration. The AI analyzes the image and extracts the 5-10 most dominant colors with their hex codes, RGB values, and color names. Copy hex codes directly to share with printers, embroiderers, or design tools.
India-Specific Use Cases
Indian fashion designers upload fabric swatches to extract exact Pantone-equivalent colors for production orders. Boutique owners use extracted hex codes to match accessories with garments. Textile exporters communicate exact color specifications to international buyers using standardized hex codes instead of verbal descriptions like 'light peach' or 'dusty rose'.
Global Use Cases
Fashion brands use color palettes to maintain seasonal color story consistency across collections. Graphic designers extract brand colors from logo images. Interior designers extract color schemes from fabric or wallpaper samples for room planning. E-commerce teams use extracted colors to improve product filter tags.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I extract the exact color code from a fabric photo?
Upload the fabric photo to our color palette generator. The tool automatically identifies the dominant colors and provides their hex codes (for digital use), RGB values (for screen), and approximate CMYK values (for print production).
Can I use this to match thread colors for embroidery?
Yes. Extract the hex code of your target color and use it to find the closest DMC or Anchor thread shade using a thread color conversion chart. Many embroidery software tools accept hex codes directly.
How many colors does the palette generator extract?
By default, the tool extracts the 8 most dominant colors. You can adjust the palette size from 4 to 16 colors in the settings.
Can I create a custom color palette without an image?
Yes. Use our manual color picker to select colors individually and build custom palettes for branding or design projects.
Does it work for dark or patterned fabrics?
Yes. The AI uses advanced color clustering algorithms that work well even on patterned, textured, or printed fabrics with many colors.
