Colour Matching For Clothing

Hey guys!It is time for Xiaojun to post something about fashion.This time, I will introduce some skills related to color matching!Are you very interested in this topic?





1.First, i will introduce some types of colors:
  •   Neutral colors: Black, White, Gray
  •   Cold colors: Blue, Green, Blue tones of purple
  •   Warm colors: Red, Orange, Yellow, Pink, Pink   tones of purple
  •    Warm Neutrals: Cream , Beige, Tan, Brown
2.Second, I will introduce some basic knowledge about how to match color for clothing.

  • Complementary colors: 
Complementary colors are found on opposite sides of the color wheel to each other. Unless you are a very confident dresser it is best to avoid wearing complementary colors together.
                               
  •   Analogous Colors
     Analogous colors are next to each other on the color wheel. As they are similar to each other and easy on the eye in combination they make a pleasing palette for an outfit.Limit yourself to no more than three analogous colors in your outfit. Stick to two and a neutral and you can’t go wrong.

  3.So what are the failsafe color palettes for successful dressing?
  • 2 colours and 1 neutral e.g. green, yellow and white
  • 1 colour and 1 neutral e.g. black and red
  • 1 colour and 2 neutrals e.g. purple, black and grey
  • 2 or 3 neutrals e.g. black and white 
  • 2 or 3 warm neutrals e.g. brown and cream
  • 1 pattern and 1 or 2 plain neutrals
  • 1 pattern and 1 plain colour from within the pattern
  • 1 pattern, 1 neutral and 1 plain color from within the pattern
 Last, don't:
Don’t mix black and navy.
Don’t mix white and cream.
Don’t mix brown and grey
