BOLD BRIGHT AND MUSTARD YELLOW FOR SPRING/SUMMER 2013

Pastel Yellow or Mustard yellow is often described as the perfect gender-neutral hue. It is deceptively easy to work into your wardrobe because the varying shades can be used to create a number of desired effects. However, the most difficult part of working with yellow is getting the right shade for your skin tone. Medium to dark skin tones work very well with most colors and tones. Pastel and brighter yellow hues work exceptionally well if you fall into this category. Avoid going too bright with your yellow if you have darker skin tones, as you risk creating too strong of a contrast between the color and your skin. Bolder yellows can look great, as do mustard and gold hues, which create strong, flattering contrasts with your skin tone. As Julius Reuben demonstrate in this bold mustard futurist suit. If minimal is what you are after then mix your pale pastels with some fun bright colors to give your look an extra pop. Try adding a brightly colored tie to a pastel shirt, or a bright shirt to a pale suit.
