Men's Clothing & Color - What To Do When You Don't Like The Colours That Suit Your Complexion
About this video
Centeno addresses a viewer who dislikes the earth-tone colors typically recommended for their complexion, preferring instead blacks, grays, purples, and reds. He argues that while certain colors do complement different complexions, color preferences don’t have to be sacrificed—instead, he recommends using complementary colors as a neutral canvas and introducing preferred colors strategically through accessories and accent pieces.
Key takeaways
- Centeno argues that colors complimenting your complexion don’t have to be your dominant wardrobe colors; they can serve as a neutral foundation instead
- Centeno recommends treating your favorite colors as ‘spice’ in your outfit—incorporating them sparingly through accessories like pocket squares, ties, and shoes rather than dominant pieces
- Centeno suggests working with a custom clothier to subtly integrate preferred colors into clothing (such as hidden stitching or accent details) that complement your natural coloring
