At least it's not an 'evil' shade of purple, which would better match darker shades and be more appropriate for some of the most eastern located evil factions still to come (either orcish, mannish or mixed). Additional thought:

Note that Balchoth/Wainriders (1 faction with 1 sub-faction afaic) and Variags of Khand are almost solely depicted using red and gold colour schemes on their armour in popular adaptations. Therefore I'd even propose to use a blue grape inspired "blueish violet" for Dorwinion.
