Color Placement on the Body
 Warmer and Lighter

Colors
Red-Orange and Yellow move forward on the figure and may cause it to appear larger if used all over.
Cooler, Dark and
Muted Colors
Minimizes figure size. Shades of blue, green, purple and rose fall into this category, as do the dark neutrals like gray, brown and taupe.
Monochromatic
Colors
Using an unbroken line of color head to toe adds height and therefore slimness to a figure
Light and Dark Combinations
Always place the darkest colors on the bottom. The light adds height and the dark bottom will minimize the lower half of your figure.
