Navy is
Because it is a color that is often used for suits and has a sharp image
There may be a lot of dads and moms who are not good at it, saying, "It's a bit too much for everyday wear."
I'm Maruko Sakura, a writer for children's clothing brand PETITMIG.
Since navy is a very dark color, there are probably many parents who have an image that is far from the pastel colors associated with spring.
However, the navy color is not only a neat image, but also a color that makes you feel a “soft atmosphere”.
Of course, it's hard to get rid of a single navy color, but it's also a versatile color that can be used in a wide range of ways by combining it with various colors.
So, this time, we will introduce what kind of color navy is, color combinations recommended for children, and navy color items from PETITMIG.
What is navy
When you hear the word navy, many people may think that it is dark blue and hard.
Navy = dark blue?
In Japan, navy is called "noukon-iro," which is darker than navy blue .
However, many people may think that navy blue is navy because it is often written as “navy” in the color display of clothing.
Is navy a solid color?
Navy is also a standard color for suits (uniforms) .
Recently, school uniforms come in a variety of colors, but until recently, navy uniforms were said to be the standard.
Therefore, the uniform is said to be the student's "formal dress" and is worn even at formal ceremonies.
The image of navy = uniform (formal) is thought to be stiff.
What color goes well with navy?
Some people may think that navy is a color to be worn on formal occasions.
However, navy can be combined with various colors to create a bright impression, so it is recommended for casual outfits.
This time, we will introduce recommended combinations for children.
White
White, which can be said to be the royal color that goes well with navy, is a color that not only gives a sense of cleanliness, but also makes you feel classy .
White and navy gives a neat impression, but the combination with off-white creates an elegant look.
brown (brown/beige)
The crisp navy and the soft brown and beige give a feminine impression .
Brown gives a strong impression of autumn and is especially recommended for autumn and winter, but it is a combination that gives a calm image, so it can be used in various scenes.
Beige is easy to match with any color, and goes well with navy.
It is the color that I want parents who are not good at it to try first.
Khaki (dark green)
The combination of khaki and navy may seem difficult because they are both dark colors.
However, the combination of khaki and navy gives a “ cool ” impression.
blue
The navy gives a sharp impression, but it goes well with the similar color blue, giving you a sophisticated image .
In particular, it goes well with "denim," which is representative of casual wear, so if you're having trouble coordinating it, you'll definitely be able to choose this color combination.
gray
Navy and gray may have a hard image of each other, but this combination gives a refreshing impression .
Recommended for children who want to enjoy adult-like casual fashion with a little stretch.
PETITMIG recommended navy
The theme color of this season's PETITMIG is exactly "Navy"
Here are some recommended navy items.
Navy is an interesting color in that it can change the impression completely depending on the color you combine with it.
Not only can it be used as a beautiful outfit for going out, but it can also be used as everyday wear.
PETITMIG's recommendation "pant G2 navy"
Navy bottoms that can be worn all year round.
The waist is elastic and has a string, so it can be adjusted according to the waist, and children can easily put it on and take it off.
- Material: 100% cotton
- Size: 5 sizes from 1-2y to 5-6y (equivalent to 80cm to 120cm)
☆Recommended combination: knit G2 frill
A knitted cardigan with a ruffled collar.
A cardigan that brings out the cuteness of a girl, but when paired with simple bottoms, it adds elegance, so it is recommended not only for everyday wear but also for going out.
PETITMIG's recommended "onepiece G2"
A navy plaid dress.
It has a very elegant atmosphere, but the frills on the neck and cuffs add cuteness.
- Material: 100% cotton
- Size: 5 sizes from 1-2y to 5-6y (equivalent to 80cm to 120cm)
☆ Recommended combination: Double trench coat
It's a basic double trench coat, but I think there are many children who yearn for a double button coat.
Floral buttons add cuteness, but if you combine it with navy, it will make you feel elegant.
PETITMIG's recommendation "shirt G1 check"
It is a navy plaid shirt with a sailor-type double-button collar.
The design gives you a sense of luxury and a calm atmosphere, but it is very easy to move.
- Material: 100% cotton
- Size: 5 sizes from 1-2y to 5-6y (equivalent to 80cm to 120cm)
☆Recommended combination: pant G2 navy
The navy color bottoms we introduced above.
The single navy color gives a tight impression when combined with this shirt. The cuteness of the shirt will not make you feel stiff.
Colors that go well with navy | Summary
This time, we introduced what kind of color navy is, recommended color combinations for children, and navy color items from PETITMIG .
Because navy can be worn for formal occasions and business occasions, it has an image of being “hard”, and some people unconsciously avoid having their children wear it only “when going to a formal place”. I guess.
Navy is a color that can be worn anywhere and in any season.
