Black and white are at the absolute opposite ends of the color spectrum, and surprisingly enough, that means they go so well together.
Not only that but they also go so well with most colors on the wheel. There are only a few colors that won’t look good with black and white, and those are the odd ones out.
Knowing this, you should find it easy to style your black and white dress, but you may be surprised when you find that it’s hard to choose the right hijab.
Choosing your hijab color is always tricky because it dictates how your entire outfit will look, and it’ll help you decide what accessories you want to wear.
Here are all the colors of hijab to wear with a black and white dress.
What Color Hijab Goes With a Black and White Dress?
Although black and white are supposedly easy colors to style, It’s not easy to find a color that looks good on both of them because they’re opposite colors.
Here are some options that may be worth considering for your black and white dress.
Pink
Pink is a soft, feminine color that goes well with both black and white individually. So, there’s no reason it won’t work for a black and white dress.
In fact, all shades of pink will look good with black and white. For a classic date or a celebration, opt for soft pink tones, like dusty pink or champagne pink.
Meanwhile, for a casual outing, opt for a bright pink scarf.
Purple
In a lot of cultures, the purple color represents wealth and royalty. That’s because, in the past, it was pretty expensive to extract from nature, and only the rich could wear it, and in some countries, only royalty. So, it grew to be the symbol of the rich.
If you want to look expensive, you can pair your black and white dress with a purple scarf. Go for a deep purple shade if you’re going out at night.
Meanwhile, save the light shades like lilac for the morning.
Red
When in doubt, add anything red to your outfit.
Red goes pretty well with black and white because it swallows their neutral tones, adding a powerful twist to the outfit. Black and white alone may be boring, but once you add a dash of red, forget what the word boring means.
You can wear a deep red scarf with your dress if you’re going on a night out. Satin scarves have an elegant aura, so you may want to pair your dress with a satin red hijab.
For a plain black and white dress, you can go for a subtly patterned hijab like EMMA’s Turath.
Green
Green is the ultimate color of nature. If there’s one color that appears in all flowers and plants, it’s green. And although green is by no means neutral, it’d look perfect with a black and white dress because it’s a pop of color between two neutrals.
You can go for an emerald shade that brightens up your look. It’d look stunning if you have a pair of green eyes! Other than that, you can go for a jade-green hijab. The shade looks good on all skin tones, and luckily, EMMA offers an exquisite jade green hijab in a breathable modal material.
Gold
The gold color mostly symbolizes luxury, glam, and wealth. It’s often the main color in wedding celebrations, and, of course, all royal settings. That should be enough reason to wear it with your white and black dress.
If you’re going out on a glamorous night, a gold metallic scarf may be the one you need. You can make it pop out with some matching makeup and a gold clutch.
Or, you can match your dress with an elegant satin scarf like EMMA Angel. It has a low-key design that would go perfectly well with a plain dress.
Emma Scarves That Go With Black and White Dresses
Because Emma offers everything a hijabi needs, here’s a list of scarves that go with black and white dresses:
Valerie
Valerie is one of Emma’s newest additions, and it can go well with a black and white dress if it doesn’t feature small details or patterns. It’d look great with a dress that’s half black and half white because it features both colors plus a dash of red.
Valerie comes in Emma’s trademark chiffon fabric. It’s ultra-soft and breathable, which makes it ideal for the summer.
Grey Marble
Grey Marble is a feminine, simple hijab that’d be a soft, delicate addition to a black and white dress. You can match it with heels of the same color, and you’ll rock the outfit.
The hijab comes in a modal fabric that’s soft and ideal for summer. Plus, it’ll look good on all skin tones because it’s neutral.
Final Thoughts
Not a lot of colors will go well with a black-and-white dress, but you still have plenty of options to choose from. You can wear red, pink, purple, or even green if you want to brighten up your outfit.
And if you want a more glamorous color, you can always sport a gold hijab with your dress.
