Fashion Advice 59
Shirt and Suit Colors to
Match Darker Skin Tones

Question:

Hi! I am a jewellery designer from Mumbai. I am very thankful to you people. I was a person with zero dress sense and least interested in it. I used to depend on my mom and sis for dressing and used to wear whatever they used to give to me.

Today reading your articles I am having at least some knowledge. I want your tips as to how should I be dressing, what suits me, what formals should I be buying, the colours that will suit my skin colour.

Answer:

Since you are from India, I would assume that you have dark skin tones. Then I would recommend you to try dress shirts with colors like gold, light brown, orange, white and medium blue. These are colors that can light up and bring focus toward your face. In general, the brighter colors can do this effect. Try avoiding darker tones.

For your suits, you can still choose the safer colors like navy, charcoal, or dark gray. You won't go wrong with such colors for the suits. You will brighten up your face color with the dress shirts rather than through the suits.
