The Hidden Color Rules of High-Society Women

[@ralferez36]

Wear What You Want👌👌👌Just Cover Your Bits!

I live in the SW, and I like sunset colors: fuchsia, purple, lavenders, deep crimson reds. I’m not likely to be considered sophisticated, but I enjoy wearing them. You need to wear the colors that work with your personal colors of skin and hair. Good luck trying to infiltrate High Society; once you get there will it be worth the sacrifice?

[@rileysmiley9585]

This is funny to me because some people who have lots of money don’t care about this at all. Most of them are very plain dressed and down to earth. PLEASE BELIEVE ME.

[@ssjs6106]

Yes... there is a quiet elegance in a simple down to earth natural look... a different 'code' and 'messaging' altogether. But I agree with understated quiet colors... just not necessarily the styles.

[@liana2136]

Yes, the real people I know who are wealthy don't put much importance on "looking expensive" etc.

[@MolMod-dm5yt]

These dress codes aren't exactly helpful-wearing beige doesn't instantly make you look royal!

[@honeymayfair-rt9tc]

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏very very helpful!!!

[@SculptExpress-gv8jp]

Colors should “do” something for a wearer, meaning they should emphasize the color of your eyes for instance. They should also flatter your figure and not point to the wrong parts. And most importantly you should wear whatever color that suits you with an aristocratic ease (remember many aristos are quite eccentric).

Light pink long sleeve and bright yellow pants, with the black bag as well black boots.

[@brandic89]

Great point re: neon, though!

[@clauthequeen]

I look a washed out sick person when I wear cream or beige😂

[@Wolfieyani1314]

Same here. I hate beige, its great to wear if it suits you. But if you don’t, people will view you as too much watching KZbin videos on how to look rich or old money when you actually don’t. 😭😂 On the video it said avoid orange. But my colour season said orange is the one colour that suits me 😂

[@svetlanapodkuiko4155]

People look washed out in all pastel colors:

[@SilSolo]

@@svetlanapodkuiko4155pastels imo flatter light summer and light spring the most. As autumn I steer clear of thosr

[@teo9847]

Me too! I just got rid of all my beige + cream coloured items because they made me look washed out, tired and sickly. I’m a cool skin undertone so cool toned oatmealy/ taupey shades are better for me.

[@rosamariav_09]

Men die for a woman dress in red 😂

[@SculptExpress-gv8jp]

Anything red attracts from lipstick to shoes. Colors are also very therapeutic, these plain colors are for bureaucrats, not the eccentric aristocracy.

[@hremaddox]

I look terrible in pastels

[@Adennative]

Girl, you must be colorblind.

[@MolMod-dm5yt]

The so-called 'hidden color rules' of high-society women seem more like outdated restrictions than actual style advice. It's hard to see how these arbitrary guidelines can inspire genuine elegance.

[@alisons9740]

Nope, this totally resonates. Shopping as a child in the 90s at budget department stores I never felt right. The colors are too bright and basic. As an adult and interior designer, I gravitate to more neutrals and sophisticated tones, rarely patterns. I also follow seasons, occasions, and many other reasons for color in my outfits. Color really can send a message and give your look polish. Also Amal Clooney is one of my style icons, but I can see how other louder styles (think Iris Arpel) can still be refined. Not everyone can pull that off and keep it up as a personal style.

[@MolMod-dm5yt]

@@alisons9740 Rarely patterns - I agree! But it's about craftsmanship and quality, not the colors. Thank goodness I'm not completely dependent on what warehouses want to sell - I can 'sew my own wardrobe' if necessary. But beige? I understand it’s supposed to signal high-quality wool, but…

[@MolMod-dm5yt]

and please never mention amal clooney :-) but always iris apfel

[@liana2136]

​@@alisons9740Your "style icon" Amal is a dude. Just keep that in mind.

[@kateowens45]

Many of your pictures don't match your script.

[@ginalim3649]

I will just be myself and my hormones would like to be equally happy mood.

[@BookSummary-hg4fv]

Every one love to dress like this any im tired of this i am going casa blanca instead.
