COLOUR WORLDS
The three primary colours of the colour wheel are red, yellow and blue. These are combined to create the secondary colours green, orange and violet. Other combinations lead to different shades of these colours. The complementary colours that produce the strongest contrast are directly opposite each other on the colour wheel. Examples are red and green or blue and orange. These contrasts are often only acceptable in theory and are considered a hindrance in fashion. In everyday life, however, combinations from the same colour family work best. Monochrome looks, whereby all pieces are in one tone, are striking on account of their perfectly balanced overall appearance. Harmony is also achieved by combining warm colours with other warm tones and cool colours with other cool tones.
Which colour combinations align best with each season and together create a well-balanced overall look?
Choosing the right colours often depends on the style you wish to achieve with the look in question. Are you opting for a balanced look or would you prefer a high-contrast outfit? These are important considerations to make before deciding on an outfit. To find out which colour worlds generally harmonise well with each other, you can start by using a colour wheel as a guide. It consists of 12 colours and illustrates which tones correspond to each other according to the principles of colour theory.
