You can’t wait to wear that new green dress in your closet, right?
Well, we can’t blame you. Green is one of the best colours for all seasons. Pink is more of a summer colour, and burgundy is winter’s best friend. But green? You can wear it in any season, and you’ll still stun!
But what colour hijab to wear with a green dress? That’s an easy question! Here’s everything you need to know.
What Colour Hijab to Wear With Green Dress?
Here’s a list of all colours possible to match with a green dress!
White
We know that’s the easiest answer, and you probably thought of it, but you can’t go wrong with white. It’s the only colour in existence that goes well with anything. If you have EMMA’s White Elegance in your wardrobe, you’ll be able to wear it with all your outfits.
If you’re wearing a floral green dress or a solid-coloured one, a white scarf is your go-to for casual outings. White fits nearly all skin tones, and it balances any colour you wear with it, regardless of the shade.
Blue
Blue and green are corresponding colours, which means they’re next to each other in the popular colour wheel. That also means they’re good with each other if they’re styled correctly.
Not any shade of green will work with any shade of blue. For example, dark blue can’t be paired with lime green because those shades are away from each other on the wheel.
Whereas, you can match dark blue with dark sea green for the best results. Royal blue also looks exceptionally well with teal green.
You can also wear both colours in one hijab, like EMMA’s Cleo’s Emerald.
It’s important to match your accessories too. For example, you can wear a royal blue hijab and accessories, and keep the bag and shoes in a neutral colour, like off-white.

Purple
While blue and green are corresponding colours, purple and green are contrasting colours, which means they’re each others’ visual opposites. That means they face each other in the colour wheel, and surprisingly, they go exceptionally well together because they’re both cool colours.
You can pair your green dress with a lilac scarf, or even better, a printed scarf with touches of both green and purple, like Hopeful Lilacs from EMMA.
Lilac can go with any shade of green. But for darker shades, it may be better to choose a darker purple shade, like dark violet. Generally, a lilac scarf is a multi-use piece that you can style in many different ways. And if you have a soft scarf like EMMA’s Lilac Elegance, you’ll be able to wear it in all climates and seasons.
Pink
Are you in the mood for some colour blocking? You can go for a combo of green and pink. It’s a classic, effortless pairing that never fails to look good. There are some theories that these two colours go well together because they’re constantly pairing up in nature. EMMA’s Fleuri Fleuri is a good proof of that, and it’s available in both modal and chiffon:
Anyway, you can style an olive green dress with a rose pink scarf. Rose pink also goes exceptionally well with darker shades of green.
For lighter green shades, go for hot pink (Check EMMA’s Hot Pink Elegance!) or Fuschia. These colours are ideal for summer outfits.
Black
If you’re going to a formal gathering or a romantic night out, you can pair a green dress with a satin black scarf. If you match all the other accessories, the look will be praise-worthy!
For example, you can wear a black leather cinched belt and a pair of black heels. Add to that a black purse with a metal chain, and you may get featured in a celebrity magazine!
Black balances out green, so it’ll look good on most shades. You can also choose a scarf that features both colors, like Secret Garden. Its silky satin material is perfect for night outings.
Mixed Colors
If you don’t want to create colour blocks, you can always match your green dress with a printed hijab featuring mixed colours. Go for a scarf that has the same shade of green as the dress, plus other colours. For example, Graceful Bliss by Emma can be worn with a bright green dress for the summer, like the model is wearing it.
For a winter outfit, you can go for Nala. It features more than one shade of green, so there’s a high chance it’ll match your outfit perfectly.
How to Style a Hijabi Green Dress
Styling dresses with hijabs isn’t an easy task because the possibilities are endless!
You can style it with accessories, with a belt, with a coat, or without any of these. Here, we’ll give you some tips to style that green dress!
Go Leopard
For some reason, leopard prints go exceptionally well with the colour green. All your green dress needs is a pair of leopard shoes, and you’ll be rocking your outing!
Better yet, you can wear a leopard coat over the dress if it’s a winter outfit. Or, you can choose a scarf with a leopard print, like Emma’s Wild Safari. If you want a more subtle approach to leopard prints, you can go for Leo Diva instead. It only has small bits of leopard on it, and its green shade will look exquisite with your dress.
Match It With a Statement Color
If you want to go bold with your green dress, match it with a statement colour, like bright orange or mustard yellow.
Both colours go well with green, and they’ll give you that bold look that you’re looking for. Alternatively, you can go for hot pink or royal blue. If you style these colours correctly, you can wear your green dress in a hundred different ways.
Red also goes well with green, but we don’t prefer it because it only looks good during the Christmas season!
Be Mindful of Fabrics
There’s a trivial detail most girls don’t consider when choosing their hijab: the fabric.
While you’re free to wear anything you prefer, some fabrics look better with each other. For example, wearing a satin hijab with a cotton, beach dress is a bit odd. Satin goes well with crepe dresses, and it may look good on synthetic fabrics if the dress is formal.
Meanwhile, chiffon hijabs go with all casual dresses, regardless of their fabrics.
Final Thoughts
So, what colour hijab to wear with a green dress?
You can choose from a wide array of colours, including pink, purple, and even blue. Or, you can opt for the classics and wear black or white. Generally, we recommend testing with printed hijabs first. You can transform your dress with the right scarf!
