One of the most popular trends in fashion during the last several years has been flesh-tone, skin tone or nude colors. At the on-set of this trend, I had difficulty sourcing flowers in these colors and often resorted to over-spraying flowers (lightly coating a flower with spray paint formulated for flowers). Tinting flowers is not a bad practice, it’s just not one of my favorite techniques (the smell of the fumes and the uneven/inconsistent color are my top two reasons to stay away from paint). 
As with any trend, the more mainstream it becomes, the more products are developed to meet the demand of the trend. Lucky for florists and consumers alike, growers at the farm-level developed some wonderful options in flesh tones to accompany the nude fashion trend!
One of the most popular roses right now is Quicksand. This beauty actually has a hint of very pale pink with a warm, sandy overtone. I have seen this rose used in tandem with lavender, pale pink, peach and ivory for a subtle contrast.
A unique blend of mocha and ivory, Leonidas roses have been popular with autumn weddings for years. The nude trend loves this rose, as seen in this bridal bouquet. 
Pale peach has been around for quite a while. One of my favorite pale peach roses is the aromatic Osiana rose. One of my favorite Gerbera is Pacific, pictured here in a bridesmaid’s bouquet.
Another pale peach option that I have designed corsages with recently is a miniature rose called Chablis. This unique spray rose is dominantly pale peach with hints of ivory at the base of the petal.
Vendela roses are a warm ivory tone, which I have working with for several years. They are making an impact with the nude trend as a lighter, contrasting color.
New on the scene, but trendy all the same, are Amnesia roses. This unique lavender rose is very romantic with hints of taupe undertones. Seen here with Antique hydrangea and pale pink roses, this combination hints at nude tones, without being completely colorless.
