So when Netflix released the trailer for Bridgerton season two on Valentine’s Day, it came as no surprise that the series’s blue period appeared to have continued, this time in the form of new female protagonist Kate Sharma. Whether it was for a casual romp in the garden or a full-blown ball, heroine Daphne was scarcely seen on screen without a minty frock, and the pastel was christened as ‘Bridgerton Blue’ by fans and media outlets alike. If you watched the first season of the Netflix phenomenon, you’ll know instantly what I’m talking about.
