You may have decided on the perfect prom suit color, but does it match your skin tone? Here are some tips for determining the best color for your prom suit.
The best color for prom suits for boys is not just a matter of style; it is also a matter of personal preference. You may browse through magazines and catalogs to identify the latest trends, try to decide on the color for your prom suit by trying on several different colors to see which one looks best on you.
When shopping for your prom suit, you will want to choose a color that complements your skin tone. We all know that there are two main categories that people fall into when it comes to their skin tone: warm and cool. To find out which type of skin tone you have, hold up a white piece of paper to your chin and check the color of your veins. If they appear blue, you have cool undertones, but if they appear green, you have warm undertones.
Alternatively, you can look at the color of the veins on the inside of your wrist. If veins appear to be blue or purple, you have cool-toned skin. If they appear green, you have warm-toned skin.
Cool (red or pink undertones)
Cool-toned men can wear just about any color, but pastel colors such as light blue and light pink tend to work better than dark colors such as navy blue or brown. Warm-toned men should stay away from colors like light blue or pink-red prom suits and stick with colors like brown and navy blue.
If you have cool undertones, you need a color that can offset those red or pink tones without making your skin look pale and sallow.
Warm (yellow or golden undertones)
If you have warm undertones, you need a color that offsets those undertones without washing out your skin. Jewel tones look great on those with warm undertones. You can also try a dark olive or mocha. Avoid black as it will wash out your skin.
Warm-toned men should stay away from colors like light blue and pink and stick with colors like brown and navy blue. If you have brown eyes and a warm skin tone, stick with browns and oranges for your suit color. However, if you want to go with something different, try maroon or burgundy.
Fare skinned men
Fair-skinned men with dark hair look best in dark-colored suits such as black or navy blue while fair-skinned men with light-colored hair usually look best in light-colored suits such as tan or beige.
Natural tones
Neutral tones are the rarest skin tone. You'll know if you have them because most colors will look good on you.
Conclusion
Picking the right color plays a significant role in choosing a prom outfit for guys. But it can be simple if you know your skin tone. Finding the right color to wear to prom this year is as simple as knowing your skin tone.
