28 Mar Teal: a flattering shade for everyone

Teal can look particularly striking if it’s in the right shade for you and in a good fabric. Under the teal family you also have the beautiful Chinese blues and aquas which are flattering on many complexions. Wear them as dark or as light as your colouring will allow.

Which shade?

Darker colourings need a deeper shade but should choose satin or add some sparkle to lift it. It is very flattering on redheads, in any fabric. Find lighter shades if you are fair or grey/white; keep the fabric light too.

Teal becomes a real ‘wow’ colour in satin like this Geri Halliwell full length dress at Next. If all over chiffon is too much for you, find something with a sheer overlay or sleeve like this tunic dress at Fashion Union
