Such great looks, and helpful reminders about the science (or how colors work or don't work together, to be more accurate) behind colors. The outfit at 8:42...that was not a great look for you. But the others were awesome, as usual. Thanks!

Revisiting this video a year after the first time I saw it, still one of the best videos on youtube regarding outfit composition

@westfieldartworks8188 5 жыл бұрын

I've found, at least for me, that one of the coolest and smoothest looks is an outfit is one that is composed mainly of " analogous grays." That is, two colors that exist next to each other on the wheel, in their grayer version,,....and of the same value (lightness or darkness). for example: Light Blue Gray jeans, with a Light Violet Gray button down. Dark Blue Gray Jeans with a Dark Blue/Green Gray Henley. Middle Orange Gray (brown) Chino's with a Middle Yellow Gray (Ochre) Crew Neck Sweater,...and so on. You can go around the whole color wheel and find tons of possibilities that fit into this Analogous color harmony scheme. So only slight contrast in Color, with very little or no contrast in Value or Saturation/Intensity of the colors. If the largest items (pants and tops) are made from that, then whatever accessories or shoes you put on will go nicely. I hope that's not too over simplified,..but as a beginner I really find a lot of possibilities with that harmony. Thank you.

I think finding the right colors for your complexion is more important than matching. Assuming people are not combining outrageously incompatible colors, they can combine almost any color that suits their skin undertones. example: With light brown skin and neutral to cool undertones I can rock maroon shirt and teal chinos in the same outfit but my white friends would look tacky with that pairing. On the flip side, I would look ridiculous in something like beige chinos with a burnt orange sweater, but they'd pull it off.

I usually find a random article that I want to wear, and then build up one at a time, usually pants > socks + shoes > shirt > belt > watch > outer top, then I might switch one out if I get an idea late in the journey. Right now I'm wearing cream coloured puma roma suede shoes with black socks, gray sweatpants with black speckled heather in them, maroon ABERCROMBIE logo running down from the top, and a white t-shirt. Looks killer AF with the off-white and maroon, and I have blond hair, green eyes with teal nerd glasses on, oh and my oak brown wooden watch which draws everything together. I learned these techniques from my girlfriend and basically studying women :) Then I went next-level by studying my dapper brothers from other mothers, and my graphic designer bros (I'm a software engineer)... they are big on colour theory and balance too. All about that design composition baby.

thanks bro, glad you loved those pieces too :) check my IG this summer I'll be wearing them a fair bit, I think they generally go well with relaxed button downs (like a linen), all sorts of t-shirts, henleys, tank tops.
