Red coordinates are based on the golden ratio of color schemes! Incorporating red as an accent color is the right thing to do!
The ” 70:25:5 rule ” is a well-known color scheme technique. It is mainly used for web design and presentation materials, but it can also be applied to color schemes for dressing. In the 70:25:5 system, 70% of the color scheme is the base color, 25% is the main color, and 5% is the accent color to accentuate the look. Stylish men who create seasonal red coordinates use red as an accent color based on this color scheme.
The more red is used, the more flamboyant the outfit becomes.
If the law is followed, styling with red as the main or base color can be a beautiful color scheme, but it is better to avoid it for street wear, as its presence may be too strong and make you look conspicuous. It is fine for parties and other occasions where you want to achieve a styling that sets you apart from others, but in other cases, try to incorporate red as an accent color.
If you want to incorporate red at 5% of the overall color scheme, the royal roadmap is to choose red for one of “cap,” “innerwear,” or “shoes. Here are some snapshots of outfits and recommended red items for reference!
