How Winter and Summers Can Wear Green & Magenta

How Winter and Summers Can Wear Green & Magenta

Kerry Heaps

For those with Winter coloring, think bold, saturated hues that create striking contrast. The focus here is cooler versions of green and magenta, combined with crisp gray to add depth.

Outfit Suggestions:


✔ Patterned Green & Magenta Shirt + Deep Gray Suit – The dark plaid button-up with a tailored gray suit adds dimension while keeping the look polished.
✔ White Shirt + Green Patterned Shirt as a Layering Piece – Layering is a great way to introduce color subtly.
✔ Magenta or Green Tie with a Crisp White Shirt – A magenta tie adds a powerful statement, while green brings a sophisticated touch.

💡 Tip: Stick to cooler greens (like emerald or forest) and richer magentas (like fuchsia) to keep the contrast sharp.

For those with Summer coloring, the key is subtlety and softness. Opt for dusty greens, muted magentas, and warm grays to create a more relaxed, elegant aesthetic.

Outfit Suggestions:


Soft Green Shirt + Light Gray Suit – This creates a refined, harmonious look that feels effortless.
Muted Magenta Tie with a White or Light Green Shirt – A toned-down magenta brings warmth without overpowering the look.
Checkered Tie with Soft Green Shirt – A blend of pattern and texture gives depth while staying true to the Summer palette’s softer feel.

💡 Tip: Go for sage or olive green and muted magenta or raspberry tones to create a balanced, understated look.

Adding gray or Olive is the perfect way to tone down the intensity of green and magenta, making it wearable for everyday looks. Whether you’re aiming for a bold Winter contrast or a soft Summer blend, this color combination allows you to experiment with personality and professionalism in your wardrobe.
