As a fan of colour generally, I absolutely love coming across vintage resources recommending inventive colour combinations. The April 1955 issue of British Vogue came with a (handbag-sized!) insert leaflet of key colour schemes for spring. I particularly love the schemes with unexpected colour pops: chartreuse shoes with a pink dress; periwinkle blue with a fern green and mustard ensemble; peacock with banana-beige.
I wonder whether these pull-out guides were a regular feature in Vogue magazines at the time - I've looked about but I've not been able to find anything similar in other editions, so I'm going to do some further research.
Which is your favourite combination?
