Orange floats over lilac

An airy orange dress opens over lilac trousers, with a green shoulder bag and sandals finishing the layers.

Why it works: The translucent orange changes as it overlaps the opaque lilac, making movement part of the colour pairing.
Make it yours · Change the order: Layer a sheer dress over an opaque top and fluid trousers. Keep each hem visible so the layers read separately.
Pieces: Orange organza dress · Sheer overlay · Lilac wide-leg trousers · Green sandals · Green shoulder bag
