What are the colors you cannot wear?

depglass — Sat, 14 Sep 2019 17:40:03 GMT

For me its pale yellow. Just doesn't go with all the pink in my skin. Can't wear coral lipstick, so I have never bought a top in coral.

@depglassThink autumn in New England and if there's a color that's not included in that picture it's a color I rarely wear.

I don't like olive or other dusty colors and certainly would never wear them as a top or near my face.

Many shades of purple like Lilac, Blue Violet , and Royal Purple. I can wear Plum and Eggplant. I do wear Corals, Peach ,Yellows well. Really bright strong colors are not good either ,like Fuchsia Pink , Orange , Bubblegum Pink either. Red is good. My best blues are Navy. Baby Blue or Greyish Blues. Cadet Blue not so good. Soft Black or Charcoal is better than Deep Black. I do love Black pants.

orange, yellow, lime green . . . Anything bright. I also do not look good in large flowery prints.

since I am so fair and my hair is white, I lean toward darker colors.

Peach and orange. I strongly dislike brown, too. Warm, Autumn colors generally are terrible on me. It's great that I don't like them.

I wear all colors. Personally I dont believe in I dont look good in _________ color. I think that has been put in womens head by the fashion world. I know, I know you know what you look good in. Thats ok, this is just my opinion.

Black is my worst, at least near my face. I've always had that ultra-fair, almost see-through skin. A "Summer" if you will, with cool undertones.

I used to be able to wear black wool sweaters and pull off the look. Now, anything that's solid black immediately drains my pale complexion, and worse, brings out lines, shadows, imperfections, eeek!

I agree with David Zyla and other color experts-- if you don't have any deep dark colors like black or dark brown in your natural coloring, you're better off in shades closer to the intensity of your coloring. So, no black, but I look pretty good in soft dove gray. No dark brown or deep chestnut, but can wear sand, and some (not all) shades of taupe and khaki...

I do cheat and sometimes wear black and charcoal bottoms, since they are not next to my face...

I try to avoid black especially near my face.

Red and orange (peachy shades are ok). Now if it's mixed in with a print, it's fine, but as a solid color, no. I personally feel they don't flatter my skin tone.

peach, orange, yellow, gold, warm reds, brown or tan.

I have almost black hair and olive skin. I do not look right in beige or pale blue.

i can’t do pale/light colors. they make me look washed out. warm tones suit me better.

Orange, peach, olive, beige, yellow based red. Anything on the yellow side of the color wheel.

Any color in pastel. Pastel shades make me look pale.
