How to wear teal
Teal suits most skin tones, which is why it is one of the easiest colours for evening. Silver and white gold jewellery keep it cool; gold warms it. With sequinned teal like the Showgirl, keep jewellery to earrings. For a winter event choose the Axel for its sleeves; for summer, the Showgirl’s open back.
Around the world
United Kingdom. Teal is a popular winter wedding guest colour in the UK, rich without being dark.

The Gulf. In the Gulf jewel tones are a strong evening choice; the Axel’s high neck and sleeves suit a formal event.
