I am trying to put together a renaissance costume and can’t decide what colors to use. I have a brown shirt (chemise), a dark purple/plum vest (bodice), and I need to decide on a skirt color, choosing from among hunter green, navy blue, dark wine red, and muddy brown.
–I kind of like the red, but I’m afraid red and purple together will look too much like I’m trying to put on royalty colors.
–My question about the navy blue is whether I ought to put a "cool" tone color blue with a "warm" tone color purple.
–The issue with the green is that it won’t coordinate well with my other costume pieces for future mix-and-matching, and I don’t know if green and purple are supposed to go together
–I’m afraid brown will look too dull and pauper-like, plus I’m not sure that it’s the same brown as the shirt.
Please let me know what you think! Thank you!
