Some are peachy, some are more red, some have a pink tinge. There were a few prints (my man Philip Jacobs!) with browns. It is so interesting to me how those browns took on more of an orange cast when used withe oranges.<\/p>\n<p>I know you can also see that some are multi-colored and so non-orange colors show up as well.
