By Arslan ShahbazPublished 5 months ago 4 min read

Every skin tone has a specific set of complementary colors that make our break the entire look out the outfit on you.

Pastel colors for light skin tones and deeper colors for dark skin tones help to achieve the best overall look. At SUMMAT, we have an extensive variety of handcrafted luxury gowns where elegance meets luxury. Each piece is designed for every woman to feel radiant, no matter her skin tone.

Your Skin Tone And The Right Color For You

As much as the tailoring and design is important, having a suitable color also elevates the overall look.

Fair & Light Skin Tones

Soft pastels, icy neutrals, and jewel-tone contrasts go perfectly with light skin tones. Pastel colors such as blush pink, powder blue, mint green, and lavender give a calm and soft effect. Icy neutrals like soft ivory, dove gray, and champagne make your complexion glow even better. Deep colors like the emerald, sapphire, and ruby make you look sophisticated and royal without overpowering.

These colors create soft contrast, highlighting fair skin and creating depth and dimension.

Medium & Olive Skin Tones

The best colors for medium and olive skin tones are warm neutrals, deep pastels, and rich bright tones. For example, camel, warm taupe, caramel, and bronze blend perfectly with olive undertones. Deep pastels such as mauve or dusty rose give a soft but bright look. These colors bring out the skin's natural warmth, adding depth without clashing with the colors.

Deep & Dark Skin Tones

For deep and dark skin tones, vibrant jewel colors, metallics, and bold contrasts look amazing.

Royal blue, fuchsia, tangerine, and other colors from this palette complement deep skin tones. Especially the Metallics like the gold, copper, bronze add a royal glow that perfectly complements darker complexions. Pure, bold colors such as crimson and navy are also a great choice.

Neutral Skin Tones

There are some neutral colors that suit all kinds of skin tones and textures. These colors are universal and can be dressed up or down with the right design, tailoring, and accessories. However, these colors are evergreen and never go out of fashion.

Classic Black: Extremely versatile and always sophisticated, black creates a perfect look for any accessory and complexion.

Pure White / Bright Ivory: Enhances the overall look, particularly stunning on darker and olive complexions. It gives you a blank canvas to work on, and therefore, you can create any look according to the occasion.

Champagne / Soft Beige: Warm and subtle, these colors go well with all skin tones. By adding intricate details and designs, you can take the outfit to a whole new level.

Fabric & Texture

The fabric and texture are equally important as the color of the luxury gown. If you want to have a stunning look, you must pay attention to all these things so that you can stand out in the crowd. Every color has a different impact, depending on the fabric and the texture.

For example, satin is lustrous and bouncy, and it creates a very royal look. Giving depth and dimension to your body brings great personality to the whole outfit. By adding embellishments, crystals, and fine embroidery, you can further increase the value and design of your luxury gown. You can also add some sheer elements like organza sleeves or pleats to have a more royal look.

How to Select the Most Appropriate Luxury Gown According to Your Complexion?

Along with considering your skin tone, there are a few other things that you must keep in mind for selecting the right gown for yourself.

  • Make sure that the gown fits perfectly.
  • Pay attention to details like the design, embroidery, and embellishment, the overall look of the outfit.
  • Keep the occasion in mind. For example, if you are going to a wedding, you must select a sophisticated gown according to the theme of the wedding. Similarly, if you are going to a prom, you must invest in a gown that reflects your personality.
  • Dry out different colors so that you can get an overview of how each color would look on you. Also, try it in good lighting so that you can make a good decision.
  • The time of the event also plays an important role. For example, if it’s a day event, you must go for light colors. However, for a night event, dark colors look better.
  • Choose the accessories according to the desired look. Make sure each of the accessories complements your outfit and your complexion.
