Clothes Color and Occasion

It is important to choose the correct clothes color for the correct occasion.

Don't just choose a color because you think it looks good on you, figure out what message it gives as different occasions require different kind of clothes and colors.

Which Color Clothes do I wear for which Occasion?

Clothes Color for Court

Clothes Color for a Job Interview

The solidness of brown, maroon or navy blue is useful core colors in a suit. With the accent color of cream in a shirt or accessory, this will present an image of reliability and dependability.

Clothes Color for a Family or Adoption Reunion

Clothes Color for Public Speaking

Aim for the colors to engage your audience, not distract it. Core colors such as maroon, navy blue and very deep purple give off a sense of authority.

Navy Blue - This is the ultimate "trust and competence" color. It conveys intelligence, security, and cool-headed leadership. It is the most common color for corporate uniforms, boardrooms, and law enforcement.

Maroon - A deeper, muted red, maroon projects grounded power and ambition. Because of its historical ties to academia and prestige, it commands respect without signaling aggression.

Very Deep Purple - Deep purple has historically been reserved for royalty and nobility. This color signals luxury, wisdom, and prestige, communicating a high-end sense of power.

When you are shopping for color, keep this in mind: the colors you wear communicate messages to others and, in turn, prompt a response.
