Suiting colours to suit your skin tone - Part 1

 



When a lot of men look at buying their first bespoke suit, they will often think to purchase a black suit. The black suit is best placed for two occasions; as cocktail formal attire for a wedding or ball… or for a funeral. Black can be a hard color to work with especially for those with lighter complexions. It can often wash out skin tones and it inspires a very formal or sombre mood for an outfit.


Let’s start with the simplest and most straight forward option. The Navy Suit. Navy is a color that works for ALL complexions. Be it dark, light or somewhere in between, navy is a color every man should have in their wardrobe as a key staple. The trick with making navy look its absolute best is to ensure you get the right base tone for your coloring. Men with a skin tone darker than a Mediterranean tan should look for an indigo based navy as this warmer navy color will compliment your darker complexion. A gentleman with lighter skin should look to a cooler, grey or blue base in the navy and go for the darkest shade for maximum contrast.
