How to wear salmon
A salmon shirt looks great with navy, gray or beige pants. With jeans and white sneakers you get a relaxed look. For shoes, brown, nude and white are safe. In summer, pair it with white and gold accessories.
Salmon in home decor
Soft salmon walls add warmth to living rooms and bedrooms. Pair it with light gray, white and light wood. Turquoise or mint green throw pillows add freshness. Gold details make it more elegant.
Salmon in graphic and web design
Salmon is a warm background for food, beauty or travel brands. Use dark gray or navy text on it, and a turquoise accent to stand out.
What to avoid
Avoid pairing it with coral, orange or red that are too similar, because they look confusing. With intense yellow it also loses its softness.
