Pale Palettes

Pale Palettes, stylized as Pale✽Palettes and with a shorthand of PasuPare (パスパレ), is an all-girl band in the Pretty CURE Dream! franchise. The group consists of five members, namely Mirai Asahina on vocals, Komachi Akimoto on guitar, Asumi Fuurin on bass, Erika Kurumi on drums, and Honoka Yukishiro on keytar. They debuted with the song Shuwarin☆Drea~min Good.

Background
An idol band formed by a talent agency. The band is made up of Mirai (Vo.), who has spent huge amounts of time training for her debut; kind and calm Asumi (Ba.), and science lover Honoka (Key.). They were later joined by Komachi (Gt.), who passed the band's auditions and then fashion lover Erika (Dr.). The five of them are using this experience to bolster their very own definition of an &quot;idol&quot; and what is it to be one.

Costume
Pale Palettes' costumes are inspired by Magical Girls and Lolita style dresses with their pastel theme colors (pink, green, purple, blue, and white), with white and accenting of another color (green, purple, blue, or white). Originally they wore a dress with a corset top that had ribbon lacing or bows at the middle and two ribbons on each side of the chest, with the exception of Mirai's dress, which has one large ribbon at the middle. The skirt is shaped to reveal shorter white fabric, and two layers of ruffles. Sewn to the back is a bow in their theme color with frilly white or pale-colored tails. They also wear ribbons on their wrist and frilly cuffs beneath the shoulder, and a frilly choker. Their shoes have small heels and ankle straps wrapped around the foot and ankle, worn with white stockings that have a ribbon on the side of the cuff. Each girl wears two white ribbons in their hair.

During the first anniversary, the band switches to a somewhat more casual outfit composed of a pale pastel top in their theme color with lace details and gold accents worn beneath a white vest with the same gold detail and a ribbon sewn to the back with scalloped tails. On the lapel's right corner is a tiny bow in their secondary color that has a chain attached to the opposite side, and around her neck is a white ribbon striped with a darker shade of her color and held by a rainbow flower. Fabric sticks out of the vests bottom to form a cape-like layer covering the skirt, which is a white and gold pleat with ruffled pieces of fabric sewn over and under it in the girls theme' colors. A chain hangs over the skirt, adorned by five flowers in each girls color'. Each girl gains white short boots with pale frilly socks in her color to match her glove detail, along with flower earrings and a single ribbon adorned by the same flower, with the exception of Mirai, who gains two.
