Study Finds: Eye Color Determines Best Clothing Colors
Brown-Eyed Individuals Look Best in Orange or Red Fabrics
The little black dress may be a wardrobe staple for most women, but a recent study suggests that the best clothing colors for individuals are determined by their eye color.
According to researchers from the University of St Andrews, people with blue eyes look great in “cool” blue hues, while those with dark brown eyes are suited for fabrics in orange or red.
Lead author of the study, Professor David Perrett, explains that while skin color has traditionally been emphasized for personal clothing choices, eye color plays a more significant role in intimate encounters like lunches or interviews.
In one experiment, the researchers presented images of individuals with different eye colors to participants. The results showed a consistent preference for blue clothing among those with light eyes and orange or red clothing for those with dark eyes.
