Polish term
soczyste (kolory/odcienie)
Polish to English
Art/Literary
Art, Arts & Crafts, Painting
The context is fashion design, but it's really a question of finding a general word for.... well, juicy, highly saturated colours. Not necessarily bright, though there is an element of that.
'highly saturated' is the descriptive equivalent of the Polish 'soczysty' but I'd rather have a single, and more vivid solution.
vivid is indeed a possibility, but maybe other options?

Comment: "What I used, though the later submitted 'lush' was lovely too so I am stealing it for the glossary."
