I don't know if I ever was told a particular color dunno probably because, it may go in one ear and out the other.. lol
I wear whatever I want. I am not the type to say "How's this?" Or try on many outfits.

Run.. from people who do that

pedro27: I was trying to figure out ''why'' they say a certain colour suits one?
I assume it is a compliment or a figure of speech.
So they don't run around all day saying " Damn! You look good!" laugh

I think most Western men look good in dark colors. I think subconsciously we think of "suits".
Men should only wear dark suits... or be arrested by the fashion police scold
Few.. look good in another color. And few look good in white suits. IMO. I think skin tone has a lot to do with it.
White-White men, should not wear white. doh They need a tanning salon or just burn the suit laugh

It's to do with your own colouring, Pedro.

Because you have a dark skin tone, you can wear light-reflective colours, which is kinda bright colours. Being fair, if I wear yellow, or bright, yellowy greens, it reflects off my skin like a buttercup. laugh

The human eye likes contrast: dark hair and blue eyes make these features stand out and easy to see. It's why the Irish are considered handsome.

If you wear blue, it'll 'pick out' your eyes even more. Try to go for blues which are of a similar tone to your eye colour, but maybe a darker blue.

If I wear darkish, mossy greens, it makes my eyes glow like cat's eyes.

I could go on, but men tend not to see colour as well as women and few people see colour as well as I do. I can see the individual pigments in paint and dyes, not just the colour of the mix.

I can wear any color.

As long as it doesn't have a "u," like colour.

I was wearing green cammoflaug pants with a blue shirt, when my friend's sister told me how bad my clothes matched, "Green and blue don't go together!" etc, etc.

In my defense, I told her to look around...

Almost every color in Hawaii is a shade of green or blue.

I don't care what anyone says...

My clothes may not match; but they match me.

Track you like a black suit. Me too, with a bowtie. wine

Can't see your pictures Mercedes. I've been told that red suits me but seldom wear it. I have lots of favorite colours, mauve, blue, green, violet, pink, grey. wine
