How to combine colors in men's
clothing?
We have already talked about the combination of clothes in men, but it is a
topic that gives to speak more than once. One of the things that every man who likes to
dress in fashion always tries is to combine clothing but this requires, in addition to taking
into account the materials, textures and stripes / pictures to combine well the colors of the
clothes. Questions that, although it seems simple, are often very complex for many men
who consider the theory of color a mystery (and that is why they wear light brown
trousers with a violet shirt, for example ...
Learn to combine the colors of clothes
When you make a good combination of colors, you will really notice it and the people who
look at you, are something that happen unconsciously. We are going to review some
concepts of primary school color, from there, begin to understand how to combine
colors. You may find it a little boring to read the following but I assure you that it will open
your mind when it comes to the color combination in clothing. We need, for this, the help of
the color wheel or color wheel. The chromatic circle is the sum of the 3 primary colors
(red, blue and green) and the 9 intermediate colors. Let's look at the primary colors
now. With a little imagination you can see that they are forming an equilateral
triangle. The secondary colors are those that join the mix of primary: green,
orange and violet. Green is formed from the union of blue with yellow, orange from
red with yellow and violet from union of red with blue. Now the interesting thing
comes: the analogous colors. These are contiguous colors on the color wheel. As
in this example, the yellow and the different types of orange. To finish, something no less
important, the complementary colors. En image, yellow and violet. Ready, we
finished with the concepts of color, it cost, but you already understand it. Now the good is
coming.
The golden rules for combining clothes
The analogous colors go well together only when they have the same
level of intensity. Forget about combining primary colors or secondary colors, between
them.
The complementary colors create high contrasts and can be very good as very bad, for
example, violet and yellow are very good as long as the intensity is different (light yellow
pants with a "strong" violet chomba). An example of bad combination is green with red,
something that does not go, except in a costume party.
Both white and black are "wild" colors and can be used in almost all combinations, also
gray, to a lesser extent. When you begin to understand this of the combination of clothes
you will realize that there are more rules than the previous two. They
are, among other Intensity of color and luminosity that we must take into account, anyway,
it is something that is learned over time.
Examples of clothing color combination in men
Here I leave you some excellent combinations, so that you can train the sight. Notice that
everything exists is based on several clothes of similar colors with some garment of
complementary color or completely different. Pay attention also to the textures and the
intensity of the colors. Let's see now spring / summer combinations.
Combine men's clothing in summer
In summer, the combination of colors does not need to be so contrasted and we can play
with variations on a color palette. As you can see in the picture, a combination of blues with
some white touches combines perfectly. Also combinations such as blue
and green that in winter are not so good are very good in summer.
Combine men's suits
The man when you dress to get ready is usually more traditional and less risky than the
woman but every day we dare to introduce riskier elements. Now it is very fashionable to
combine a dark suit with very colorful shoes, red or yellow. But the classic combination is
always a hit, grays, and blues, with a white or black shirt are always a guarantee of
elegance.
More examples of how to combine clothes
Observe the excellent combination of purple with embroidery. Or the violet with the
military brown. You can also see a model wearing a violet suit very but very clear with
yellow pants "duckling". The shirt is white (wild color) and the handkerchief
reinforces the color of the jacket.
