🎨 Color Palette Tips for Designers
A well-chosen palette makes your outfit look stylish, balanced, and easy on the eye. Here are the basic rules of working with color:
🌈 1. Choose your main color
Pick one dominant color — it sets the mood for the entire outfit. It can be soft pink, dramatic black, or vibrant green.
🎯 2. Add accents and neutrals
1–2 accent colors: for details, contrast, and visual interest
1–2 neutral colors: like white, gray, or beige — for balance and background
Example:
Main — cornflower blue
Accents — lemon yellow and fuchsia
Neutral — light gray
🧠 3. Use color harmony principles
Monochromatic — shades of a single color
Analogous — neighboring colors on the wheel (e.g. blue + teal + green)
Complementary — opposite colors (e.g. blue and orange)
🎨 4. Think about color mood
Warm colors — active and dynamic
Cool colors — calm and elegant
Pastels — soft and romantic
Brights — bold and energetic
💡 Tip: Create your palette in advance — it will help you keep textures, trims, and shadows in one consistent style.
