Re: Buttons!? Tonal or contrasting?

I prefer tonal buttons on clothing, but if I really like an item, I won't not consider it because it has contrasting buttons.

@ECBG
I tend to agree. Unless the button is the statement it can detract from an overall look. In general contrasting buttons can make an outfit too busy

@Andreatoo,I've always worked with color and design.  I studied it, got a degree, designed clothing, taught , and sold clothing and fine jewelry.  Everywhere I go I am asked "are you a designer?".

Re: Buttons!? Tonal or contrasting?

On most clothing items I  like tonal buttons, but I like "fun" buttons too...on home decor, especially patio pillows and outdoor curtains, etc.

Definitely tonal
