The Dos of Colorful Suiting
Break free from the monotony of uninspired ensembles and welcome the new season with enthusiasm. Simply put: It’s all about vibrant hues this summer—styling classically tailored pieces together or blending coordinating brights in outfits that speak to your unique POV. And if you’re looking for a few shortcuts to creating these eye-catching outfits, explore the tips and tricks below for capturing the energy of the season and fully embracing the color spectrum.
LOOK 1
Mix Warm and Cool
Go beyond the basic and pair adjacent hues on the color wheel in different tones. Cool cadet blue and warm currant create a harmonizing contrast when worn together. Lean on this strong pairing to make an impact and then complete the rest of the look with shoes and accessories that amplify the combination.
Styled with Alohas sandals, Maison Miru earrings, and a Saint Laurent handbag.
LOOK 2
Stick to a Color Family
Keep it in the family and mix similar shades to create a dynamic look. For this, simply pair two (or more) closely related colors, such blush and salmon pink, that just nearly match. When combined, the result is fresh and unexpected. Complete with accessories in a neutral tone, or even an additional rosy hue for extra oomph.
Styled with Faris earrings, a Neous handbag, and Margaux flats.
LOOK 3
Embrace a Monochromatic Color
Opt for monochrome elegance and wear the same vibrant hue from head to toe. Our three-piece chili set is sophisticated and easygoing, all while successfully relying on one color to do the work. Complement with chic black sandals, a textured tote, and timeless accessories.
Styled with a Breda watch, G.H.Bass sandals, and a Bottega Veneta tote.
