Despite their outward simplicity, the colors we see come from a complex chemical and structural system in the butterflies' wings. These colors come from two sources. The first are pigmented colors which are simply ordinary chemical pigments that absorb certain wavelengths of light and reflect others.

Butterflies get their colors from two different sources:-
ordinary color and structural color.
The ordinary color comes from normal chemicals that absorb certain wavelengths of light and reflect others.
The structural color of butterflies is from the specific structure of the butterflies’ wings. The color can shift as you, the observer, moves. This effect is known as iridescence.
It happens when light passes through a transparent, multilayered surface and is reflected more than once. The multiple reflections intensify the colors.
