Women have asked me this exact question in most of the time about, "What colour dress best for your skin tone?" and believe it or not, there is a fairly simple answer. All you need to know is what kind of skin tone you have. Then enhance your beauty by dressing in clothes that best complement your skin. Eye colour is a wild-card factor; in the cases where eye colour strongly contrasts a man's complexion and hair colour, it can be used to introduce colours that would otherwise have not compliment an individual.

Cool skin tone usually has a pale, rosy, ebony, or dark-red cast to skin.

Warm skin tone usually has a yellow, golden, and honey tones in their skin.
