It's no secret that shades of color evoke different associations and emotions. Psychologists have been saying for many years that color affects a person and they call it 'color psychology'. Large companies and global brands are aware of this and, through the logo, form a certain image that would be associated with the company.
Just like brands convey emotions to us, the color of your clothes conveys information about you. Use the power of color and you! Men's classic suits or shirts are restrained in shades of color. Therefore, the most suitable accessory for playing with color is a tie. In this article, we will break down 12 different colored ties and find out how to choose the color of the tie.
Have you ever noticed on the news what neckties the world leaders wear in public? The color chosen by politicians or businessmen for public speeches or meetings almost always characterizes their mood and emotional background.
People who want to demonstrate strength and power choose a red or burgundy tie. If a person wants to demonstrate a business and diplomatic approach, he chooses a dark blue color. Each shade has a meaning, so let's analyze each of the 12 colors separately.
