Colour theory and how we each have a natural undertone to our skin, and that using the proper clothes colours can enhance or detract one's career is covered below. When you're building a wardrobe for your career, it's important to consider your business image when making all your clothing selections.

Certain colours carry more strength and power, and should be used when you have a job, or a meeting, that requires this image. A typical airline pilot wears a dark navy or black uniform. These are powerful colours and give a visual clue to the authority that a pilot has. Strong colours that give the look of power and a "take charge" attitude are black, navy, and red. All three colours may be useful additions to your wardrobe. The darker or deeper the colour, the higher on the authority scale. Dark navy is more powerful than a mid-range navy. And black can be tricky. All black can be too somber and severe for most daytime wear, unless you're in an artistic field. And the colour red is so strong that usually only a touch is needed in business. Think of a man's red tie, or lady's red blouse. Charcoal grey is a slightly less powerful colour, but very distinguished and professional. The deeper the shade, the stronger the impact.
