Tucked Robe Lagoon

Old English tūcian, to torment / pull — past-participle of tuck. As a color modifier, tucked implies a clear-and-fitted-and-arranged quality where the hue carries the visual register of carefully-tucked-and-neatly-fitted shirt-into-trouser dress-attire.

A shallow body of saltwater partially or fully enclosed by a barrier — coral atoll lagoons in the Pacific, Venice's Laguna Veneta, the Florida Keys' backcountry. The color refers to the average reflectance of a calm tropical lagoon at midday: a saturated, slightly muted blue-green with the optical clarity of shallow water over white sand. Brighter than reef, cooler than aquamarine, with the postcard weight of a Pacific atoll seen from above.
