There's usually variations to popular patterns. The pink lady was popular in the 60-70's as people fished the chironimid hatches.

Pat Trotter had an article in STS on pink ladies and had more than one pattern listed.

If it was me I'd fish the hatch with an #14-#18 Adams tied bushy and "skirt" it along the suface. I'd mimic the action rather than the insect color.
