Style
With different options according to the chromatic circle

Pantone announced the new star color for next 2019: the Living Coral.After analyzing the trends and proposals in the catwalks of the fashion weeks, the company determined that the Ultra Violet will be replaced by the coral during the new year, a living tone that moves between salmon, red and orange.Despite being a tone associated with the sea and spring, fashion firms have already included among their winter proposals garments and accessories of the color chosen by Pantone.
Gigi Hadid has become one of the first to bet on this color in a look that has given a style lesson.The Living Coral is a difficult hue to combine due to its strong contrast and saturation and, in the case of Hadid, the model decided to create a total look with different pieces of the same color, following the tendency of the monochromatic sets through which they have optedMany signatures.Beyond the resource of the model, there is a wide variety of options with which to combine this hue through the game with contrasts and color.These are the five keys to combine coral garments according to the chromatic circle:
Monochromatic combination
Given the styles that include garments with difficult tones to combine, one of the simplest options is to complement the rest of the set with pieces of the same color.Following the same line as Hadid, if a choral dress is chosen as the main piece you can play with the accessories and add some shoes, a handbag or jewelry in the same hue.For styles where color is the protagonist, it is important to choose simple designs with the aim of not overloading the look.
Complementary combination
Uno de los recursos más útiles para mezclar colores saturados es apostar por el tono complementario, aquellas tonalidades que se encuentran en el lado opuesto del circulo cromático. En el caso del living coral la técnica del color complementario sugiere la elección de tonos verdes y azules en el resto de piezas del conjunto. Para las piezas con estampados que ya incluyan varios colores complementarios, como el vestido de H&M con motivos florales, se puede seguir reforzando esta combinación mediante la elección de un bolso de mano o joyas verdes.
Analog combination
It is not necessary to give up a garment with a striking color such as coral if the goal is to achieve a discreet and neutral style.The key is to use a similar combination that reduces the tone of the piece.To combine a top garment in coral and prevent it from becoming the protagonist of styling, it is necessary to complement it with pieces in soft and neutral tones.In the case of the mango sweater, you can add a blazer, pants and accessories that move between white, beige and brown that reduce the intensity of the coral.
Triadic combination
On the opposite side to the similar combinations are the triadic, where the experiment with the color becomes the main element.Drawing a triangle in the chromatic circle, this type of combination allows you to choose accessories and garments that are in the two vertices opposed to the main color.Despite its remarkable saturated tone, you can choose coral hair and combine them with a blue blue sweater and lower the contrast using a white handbag.
Tetrada combination
The combinations of garments with extravagant prints hinder the creation of styles where a saturated color already predominates.Taking as an example the design of the Zara shirt, where the coral is contrasted by the gold, the black and the white, the best option is to choose pieces that take as reference the colors of the print itself.To combine this model, you could choose a pleated skirt in a broken white tone that softens the whole and leave black and gold for accessories, both in shoes and jewels.
