What colours go well with dark green? Thank you!

I love the 'wine and vine' combo of dark green and dark purple that's towards the red wine end of the scale rather than the Cadbury's purple. Mustard and cream also look great Smile Why do you ask?

semideponent · 14/01/2018 14:39

Bright pink, grey, gold, duck egg blue

Fekko · 14/01/2018 14:42

Burgundy, mustard... what is the clothing?

rightknockered · 14/01/2018 14:47

I love dark green, but i'd probably ruin it with black

LockedOutOfMN · 14/01/2018 15:50

Not yellow. Hideous memories of school uniform.

Cadbury's purple would make it look like you were helping out at Wimbledon.

Cream or Navy blue, but it depends, on what kind of item the dark green is on and what the other colour will be on.

I'm wearing a dark (bottle) green cashmere cardigan with a navy dress right now.

SLRGPW · 14/01/2018 17:26

Navy, black, pale biscuity colours. Mustard/ burgundy for accents rather than large blocks of colour.

CountFosco · 14/01/2018 19:13

I wear dark green with navy (any blue actually, blue and green are gorgeous together) or black.

Doobigetta · 14/01/2018 19:23

Deep pink or orange. Turquoise could work well. Or lime green. Actually I think most colours, except brown (merry men), red (santa's little helper) or purple (cub scout). Actually, orange might be a bit Chalet School. But hot pink and brown look gorgeous together. Like Turkish Delight, in a good way.

Doobigetta · 14/01/2018 19:24

Just remembered we're talking about green, not brown, so ignore the Chalet School and Turkish Delight bit.

I'm wearing my oversized, sparkly dark green jumper with a black and white houndstooth mini skirt and DocMartens boots in oxblood and I'm loving it.

CountFosco · 14/01/2018 20:29

I like green and purple and white. Makes me feel like a suffragette Grin.

Wtfdoicare · 14/01/2018 20:32

Has anyone seen anything dark green recently? I love the colour but it's not easy to find in clothing.

Alexindisguise · 14/01/2018 21:03

I like dark green with navy, grey, cream, orange and coral.

Tu have a lovely dark green jumper in at the moment wtf

I watched the trace reaction of the Arnolfini marriage dress on a stitch in time this week, it made me want green clothes. In the painting She wore the green with a night blue underneath, it looks fab.

I went on eBay and immediately started searching for emerald and dark green clothes. Got a pice pair of trousers for £1.70.

flamingnoravera · 15/01/2018 00:29

Recreation not trace creation!

UniversityAlreadyQuestionMark · 15/01/2018 00:36

Dark green what? Who would chose dark green for anything other than a hedge?

CountFosco · 15/01/2018 06:23

Well that's a useful addition to the thread University.

UniversityAlreadyQuestionMark · 15/01/2018 07:48

Count it wasn't the best contribution I've ever made on a thread, you're right. Didn't realise I was in Style and Beauty - for some reason I thought we were talking about paint colours BlushGrin

flamingnoravera · 15/01/2018 07:58

Pice trousers and night blue. Can you tell I am in bed with flu and that it has rendered me incoherent?

GoingRogue · 15/01/2018 08:02

Following, as I've been asked to wear a dark green dress to a wedding later this year Smile

humanfemale · 15/01/2018 11:53

Absolutely love dark bottle green with a soft pink. It's the only combination I'd consider wearing pale pink in, love it.

cathyandclare · 15/01/2018 12:01

Joining in because I just rashly bought this green trench, super-reduced last week and all I could think to wear it with was all black.

Dark green
GoingRogue · 15/01/2018 12:14

cathyandclare love that coat!
