OUTFIT COLOR COMBINATIONS for PHOTOSHOOTS

Updated: Jul 14, 2020

HAVE YOU EVER ASKED YOURSELF what are the best color combinations of blouse & suit COLORS?



This is a brief article about selecting the correct color blouse to wear with a suit in a business environment, office or professional endeavor. (It can also definitely apply to a ZOOM video-meeting)


Selecting the color of the blouse you are going to wear under your suit jacket is as important as selecting your suit itself. Matching the colors to the suit is integral to the elegance and overall tasteful look. To be specific, when I say a "suit" I mean a business suit such as jacket and pants or jacket and skirt.

Of course you can go with the same usual combinations but it is also interesting to know WHICH colors match best if you want to go a little bit out of your comfort zone. 


Suit and and Blouse combination colors that look well with each other:

If the suit is: BEIGE then the blouse color can be: WHITE If the suit is: DARK GRAY then the blouse color can be: PALE BLUE If the suit is: MEDIUM GRAY then the blouse color can be: HEATHER BLUE If the suit is: BEIGE or LIGHT GRAY then the blouse color can be: BEIGE or LIGHT GRAY If the suit is: TAUPE then the blouse color can be: CREAMY BEIGE If the suit is: CAMEL then the blouse color can be: RUST If the suit is: DARKER BLUE (not navy) then the blouse color can be: PALE YELLOW If the suit is: CHARCOAL GRAY then the blouse color can be: MAROON/RED/ECRU If the suit is: NAVY BLUE then the blouse color can be: WHITE, OFF WHITE, PALE BLUE, LIGHT BEIGE, PALE PINK, RED, OYSTER, LIGHT GRAY, HEATHER BLUE

A note about dressing in black:


Black jacket with a black shirt or with a black dress, is a very strong statement and can be intimidating in a business environment. I'm not talking about black-tie or formal wear where black looks amazing and "that's-all-I-want-to-wear-so-it-makes-me-look-as-skinny-as-possible." I'm just talking about a business or professional environment where you are planning to wear a black suit.


With a BLACK SUIT you want to wear a blouse in the following colors: WHITE, OFF WHITE, PALE BLUE, LIGHT BEIJE, PALE PINK, RED, OYSTER, LIGHT GRAY, HEATHER BLUE.
