"That doesn't match."
Have you heard that? Her Ladyship has. In fact, her Ladyship found herself engaged in a heated debate with her dear friend Ivy who maintains a blog here http://www.just-chuck.blogspot.com/ under the nome de plume "Just Chuck"
about just such a barb. "Pink and navy don't match."
Do they?
What determines whether colours match? There's an excellent overview of colour theory in Wikipedia going into more detail but often the determination of matching or not matching is based on contrasts. Contrasts cause the visual cortex to fire more rapidly and create vibrancy which is often seen as pleasing; red and green, yellow and blue, black and white. Contrast in hue and saturation or intensity also contribute to the vibrancy that engages the viewer.
Her Ladyship asks her dear readers: Do pink and navy match? Let us know what you think.
There were many who thought Schiaparelli was more than a tad off the bead, was that the case when she designed her pink and navy circus themed line in 1938?
Ralph Lauren gave it a try too, he's known for a classic traditional look, is pink and navy a classic or a clash?
Her Ladyship simply must know what her dear readers think, after all, you have the taste to read her Ladyship's blog surely therefor you have the taste to determine the answer to the burning question do pink and navy match?
