There are no traditional colors of this holiday, but some people consider all shades of red, green, blue, and white colors as typical ones for Passover. Red symbolizes the sprinkling of the blood on the doorpost and white symbolizes sheep that was butchered.
A traditional color palette for such arrangements is white and blue, hues that are associated with purity and divinity respectively in the Jewish faith. As a spring holiday, Passover is blessed with an abundance of seasonal flowers at hand to create a white background brightened with natural blues and lilacs.
Dressing for Dinner: When attending Seder, dress elegantly and modestly in conservative silhouettes and subdued colors. A knee-length dress with a cardigan or a skirt and blouse for women, and slacks, a button up, and jacket for men are appropriate depending on location.
Like with Easter, the traditional flowers associated with Passover are typically those that bloom in the spring, but Passover flowers are usually shades of blue and white.

Ashkenazi Jews, who are of European descent, have historically avoided rice, beans, corn and other foods like lentils and edamame at Passover.
