CLOTHING COMBINATIONS
Technically you can create colour combinations by mixing and matching colours in your colour palette. You can combine your accent colours with your basic colours or dark or light neutral colours.
Bright Winter is a sub-season with the highest level of contrast; therefore, you can pull off colour combinations that would look bright and strong. Complementary, triadic and tetradic colour combinations would suit you the best. They provide high contrast because they are on the colour wheel's opposite side or far apart. They appear brighter and more prominent and create a bold and vibrant look.
For triadic and tetradic combinations, it’s better to use one dominant colour and the others as accent colours to balance your look. You can also pair dark and light colours to create contrast.
Other than pairing black and white alone, you can add another bright colour to increase the intensity. Avoid using black as a dominant colour because you have a Spring element in your colouring which needs light and bright colours.
PATTERNS&PRINTS
Bright Winters have many bright and vibrant colours on their colour plate. Therefore, there are many colourful pattern options available for your taste. Patters should contain only bright winter colours and have high contrast so that they can harmonize with your natural look.
Medium to large-scale patterns and prints would pop up the bright colours. Avoid faded colours and blended or minimal patterns; use bold, geometric, and abstract designs instead. If you like floral patterns, choose the ones on a big scale with bright colours.
