You can style a black dress with plenty of hijab colours, but the key is to choose the right shades and match them with the right accessories. And if you’re in the mood for an adventurous outfit, you can go for a printed scarf that features different colours.

So, what colour hijab to wear with a black dress? Here, we’ll discuss hijab colours that’d go well with a black dress!

What Colour Hijab to Wear With a Black Dress?

Black is the jack of all trades. Name any colour, and you’ll find that it looks good paired with black.

Here’s a roundup of all the colours that you can wear with a black dress.

Nude

Nude colours go pretty well with dark shades. Black is naturally high-contrast, so it brings out the beauty of soft neutral shades.

For a soft, feminine match, go for a nude hijab with your black dress. That way, you’ll be free to match the outfit with accessories of any colour. EMMA’s Nude Elegance is made of a breathable modal that’s perfect for the summer. Its shade is also brilliant—it looks good on any skin tone.

For a casual outing, wear a nude chiffon hijab with your black dress, and go for neutral makeup to bring out the colour of your skin against the nude hijab.

Pink

Pink and black are a classic duo, and they’re our favourite pair on this list.

Soft pink shades balance out the masculine energy of black, while bright pink shades pop off of the black colour, creating an electric pairing. Blush Elegance—features above—is right at the center of the spectrum, offering the best of both worlds.

The colour pairing will already steal the show, but if you want to get further attention, pair them with a pair of pink shoes for a perfectly harmonized outfit.

Cranberry Red

Cranberry red is a classical wintery choice, and it’d create a charming pairing with a black dress. Both colours have the same intensity and leave the same visual impact, so pairing them creates a powerful match.

This pairing is better left for winter since it’s all about dark shades. It’s also better to lay low with accessories to keep the look elegant.

Tan

Tan is a neutral colour that’s essentially the pale version of brown. It creates a classic pairing with black—kind of like the adventurous version of pairing black with nude or white. Cafe Elegance offers just the right tan shade for any skin tone.

The tan shade will warm up the intensity of the black colour, and it will bring out dark skin tones. You can style the outfit with gold accessories for the best output.

Emerald Green

Emerald green and black? Now we’re talking!

Those two colours create an electric pairing that’s hard to ignore. It’s a rich, sophisticated pairing that’ll bring out your skin tone. You can pair it with gold accessories, but keep them subtle if you want to achieve an elegant look.
