Contrasting colors in fashion are simply pairing outfits together that are the opposite of each other on the color wheel. Some of the commonly used contrasting outfit colors are red and green, blue and orange, yellow and purple, and black and white. And yes, they look good together when you pair them appropriately. Read on to discover some of the trendiest outfit combinations.
Contrasting Neutrals With a Bold Color
Pairing neutrals like black and white or gray with a bold, vibrant color creates an interesting, yet fashionable contrast. Consider starting with a neutral base and then introduce a bold color as an accent. The pants, skirt, or a dress can be a neutral color. The bold color can be in the form of a top, jacket, shoes, and accessories, such as a scarf, a belt, or jewelry. The goal is to have a few elements within the outfit that draw attention to their colors.
Consider using colors that are opposite of each other on the color wheel to maximize the contrasting effect. The neutral element simply acts as a backdrop, allowing the bold color to give off a sparkle without being overpowering.
Contrasting Warm and Cool Colors
Combining warm colors (e.g., red, orange, yellow) with cool colors (e.g., blue, green purple) can create an appealing contrast. Warm colors are generally associated with energy and warmth, whereas cool colors emanate a sense of calmness and tranquility. This creates, from a visual perspective, a dynamic and balanced look.
One option, when pairing warm and cool colors, is to wear pieces with distinct warm and cool tones. You can also play with patterns like stripes, floral prints, or geometric patterns to blend warm and cool tones.
