5 ways to mix different types of print in your outfit

Mixing different prints in one outfit isn't as hard as you think. Once you have the right information about it, you will be awed at how easy it is and how you can get to enjoy all the beautiful outcomes. Examples of prints include gingham, paisley, leopard, stripes, polka dots, florals, and geometric patterns. Here are 5 ways to incorporate different prints in one attire.

5 ways to mix different Prints in your outfit

Matching neutral prints with colorful prints.

 The key here is to make one part of the print outfit dominate while keeping the other subtle. The print on top can be vibrant while the print on the skirt/trouser would be subtle or neutral(and vice versa). Neutral colors in fashion include black, black, greys, and browns. An advanced trendsetter can also mix it with metallic prints like silver, gold, and copper. This is important because you need one focal point to draw the eyes.

Matching the same type of prints with 2 different colors of the outfit.

You can pair two different colors, but both must have the same print. The key is to make them have something in common, which in this case is the print. But you have to be careful not to go against the rules of the color wheel. Look through your wardrobe for prints in the same color palette or family to pair together.

Matching different prints with the same color of an outfit.

You need to have at least one color to tie the two together for a coordinated look. Don't mind the print and focus on the color instead. For a guaranteed flawless look, you can mix light tones and dark tones of the same color.

Varying the pattern shape.

 When putting two or more patterns together, vary the shape of the pattern and print. Several small-scale patterns together can look busy, while multiple large-scale patterns can feel loud. But by combining a small-medium and large-scale pattern, they will all work more harmoniously together.

Layering With A Solid Color

If you combine different prints and you aren't sure about your looks, simply throw a solid jacket or kimono over it. Solids help bring a pattern scheme together without causing more busyness or distraction. Whenever a piece of clothing is said to be solid, it means that the whole garment is of one color (excluding the attachments like zipper, buttons, or laces) with no sort of shade, pattern, or print.

So, can I mix over 2 types of prints?

 I will suggest keeping to two per outfit. Over 2 print combos are actually possible and are worn by advanced trendsetters. This, however, should be approached carefully. To play safe, your third print type can actually be incorporated as an accessory.

Personal suggestions

Start with mixing a striped top, dress, pants, or skirt with a colorful print such as paisley, floral, boho, or diamonds.
