Tropical Print is one of those Spring and Summer prints that you really need to be careful of due to it’s boldness and color. Some designers go overboard with the combining the colors that some shirts end up looking like Grama’s couch from way back in the 60’s.
Let me start with the bad examples of Tropical Print shirts.
Orange Leaves-Floral Print
Paisley Print
[1st] Bright orange is really not a good color on anyone. [2nd] Paisley print done excessively can be so traumatic on you and the ones who has no choice but to stand right next to you.
Here are good examples of tropical print shirts.
Floral Border Print
Block Leaf Print
[1st] The white floral trim complemented the dark navy color of the shirt. [2nd] The combination of the cream color of the shirt and palm leaves print are very elegant.
Consider the color infusion with the prints when delving into the Tropical Prints trend. It’s ok to do so, just make sure you don’t look like Grama’s couch. These tropical print shirts are available at Dillard’s.
