Английская Википедия:Alice blue
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox color Шаблон:Infobox color Alice blue is a pale tint of azure that was favored by Alice Roosevelt Longworth, daughter of Theodore Roosevelt, which sparked a fashion sensation in the United States.[1]
The hit song "Alice Blue Gown", inspired by Longworth's signature gown, premiered in Harry Tierney's 1919 Broadway musical Irene. The musical was made into a film in 1940 starring Anna Neagle and Ray Milland.
The color is specified by the United States Navy for use in insignia and trim on the USS Theodore Roosevelt.[2] "AliceBlue" is also one of the original 1987 X11 color names which became the basis for color description in web authoring.
This particular shade of blue is also referred as white-blue (or blue-white) and ice/icy blue, due to its very pale coloration which includes a hint of green—as does actual ice.
