Colour mixing in fashion line... How to colour mix your outfits.

Colour complementary colours : Red and green, violet and yellow, blue and orange – complementary colours, as the name goes, work best when put together. These are exactly opposite to each other on the colour wheel. They might seem bold to look at, but the outputs will be perfect. If you observe carefully, your spring and summer clothing is mostly designed using complementary colours. While some might argue against this concept, it is actually a matter of choice as some like making bold statements.

Analogous colour: Matching two or three continuous shades on the colour wheel that blend well with each other is called analogous colour matching. When you put an entire outfit together based on this.

Triadic: The combination of colours that are equidistant from each other on the colour  wheel is called ‘triadic.’ They look great together, but some might argue that they can be not. However, you can choose the muted shades of these colours to match your outfit.

If you are pale or yellow toned, opt for colours from the colder side of the palette, such as grey, navy blue, varying shades of green, aqua, emerald, burgundy, etc. If you have a deeper skin tone, you can pull off brighter or warmer shades of brown, coral, honey, gold, amber, taupe, etc., as they look amazing on this skin tone. All said and done, an ideal way to do this is to always strike a balance between warm and cold colours. The same applies to your make-up too.
