2023 is upon us! Many of us are looking for new ways to spice up our look, both in the wardrobe and in the home. What about adding a timeless color combination like black and gold into the mix? Yes, these colors are often associated with New Year’s eve, anniversary celebrations, and luxury in general, but their magic lives in the classicism of their partnership. For a sleek and sophisticated look, whether in fashion or interior design, combining black and gold will give you just the allure you’ve been seeking.
The Symbolism Behind Black and Gold
Black and gold have been paired together for eternities. Many have decided that the traditional gold and black are just the right amount of eye-catching color, as well as toned-down sleekness. One of the main reasons these colors are used so often when we enter a new year is because of their symbolism. Gold symbolizes wealth and abundance. Many choose to wear gold into the new year as a wish for wealth and success in the next year. Gold is meant to be glamorous, eye-catching, and a show of prosperity.
Likewise, black is very formal and classic. Black has been used to tone down the vibrancy of gold. Gold by itself can be a little too striking, so black softens the entire look. Black is elegant, iconic, and sleek. Together, their pairings have created iconic looks, both in the fashion industry as well as the interior design industry.
