Explanation

Gaudy describes something that is brightly colored, showy, or tastelessly ornamented. "Bright" captures the vivid, colorful aspect of gaudy, though gaudy often implies a negative connotation of being overly flashy or lacking taste. The other options (dreary, dull, dark) all describe muted, uninteresting appearances - antonyms of gaudy.
