What Colors to Wear When Your Fiancée Wears Red: A Stylish Guide with a Dash of Humor

Hola, Candid Men! So, your soon-to-be-wife has picked out a very stunning red lehenga/gown for herself. Now you are wondering - "What should you wear to match her red gown/ lehenga and look equally good?" No need to worry! We have got you covered. Let us talk about the best colors you can pair with her red dress and make sure that you both shine on your special day.

1. The Classic and Obvious Choice: Black

Black is always like that reliable friend who never lets you down and pairs opposite almost every color. It's classic, sophisticated, and will look completely elegant when paired with red. It's the equivalent of saying, "I'm confident and I know what I'm doing."

Pro Tip: A black suit or tuxedo with a crisp white shirt is a timeless combo. Throw in a black tie or bowtie, and you’re ready too. You can rent black suits from CandidMen. Both Suit and Tuxedo can be paired with your partner's red dress.

2. Versatile and Stylish: Blue

Blue is another fantastic option. It’s versatile and gives off a calm, composed vibe. Any shades of blue from light to royal blue to dark blue, all works well with red.

Pro Tip: A navy suit with a red pocket square can subtly pick up your soon-to-be-wife's red dress color without being too matchy-matchy. It is always a good idea to match your pocket square with your partner's dress. You can rent blue suits/tuxedos from CandidMen.

3. Soft and Sophisticated: Cream/Beige

For those who prefer lighter colors - cream or beige - can be incredibly stylish and sophisticated. These colors offer a soft contrast to the vibrant red, making you look approachable and elegant.

4. Bold and Dynamic: Dark Green

Dark green has a earthy tone to it. Green and red are complementary colors in the color chart, so they naturally look great together. Dark green suit and dark green tuxedo both can be rented from candidmen.

Pro Tip: A dark green suit with a subtle pattern can add a touch of uniqueness to your outfit.

5. Modern and Sleek: Dark Grey

Dark grey is another very excellent choice. It’s modern, sleek, and provides a nice contrast to red without being too on the face.

Pro Tip: A charcoal grey suit with a red tie can create a sophisticated look that’s both contemporary and classy. All shades of grey are available to rent from candidmen.

Accessorizing Like a Pro

Now that you've got the colors down, let's talk accessories. The right accessories can elevate your look from "boring" to "magnificent."

Ties and Pocket Squares: Choose accessories that either match or complement your suit and your partner's dress. For example: if you are wearing a navy suit, a red tie or pocket square can tie the look together.
Shoes: Black or brown shoes work well with most of these color choices. Just make sure they’re polished and in good condition.
Cufflinks and Watches: Subtle, elegant pieces can add a touch of class to your outfit. Think silver or gold cufflinks and a matching watch. If your partners dress has any gold shade, then you too use gold only not silver.

Remember, the goal is to look coordinated without being overly matchy-matchy.
