Outfit Compatibility Calculator

You enter formality and color family (and set contrast + silhouette/proportion balance). The calculator produces three 0–100 scores—formality match, color compatibility, and silhouette balance—then combines them using a weighted average: 40% formality, 30% color, 30% silhouette. Finally, it assigns a verdict: 80–100 “Works well,” 60–79 “Needs adjustment,” 40–59 “Borderline,” and 0–39 “Poor match.”

Formality is strict: if your set spans a gap of two or more formality levels across key pieces, the overall score is capped at 59—even if everything else looks great. Color gets capped too when you choose high contrast without explicitly coordinated intent, limiting the color score to 69. If you include outerwear and your silhouette selection is “oversized” without balancing, the silhouette score is capped at 59, since bulk stacking commonly breaks the outfit’s proportions.

If you’re simplifying by entering one overall formality/color for the outfit, it won’t force a mismatch just because only one garment value was provided for a category. If you toggle outerwear on, the tool assumes outerwear-specific formality and fit should be included; otherwise results can be misleading. Also watch contrast: “monochrome” shouldn’t be paired with “high contrast” unless you’re intentionally aiming for an effect—otherwise color harmony is penalized.

This calculator intentionally simplifies style to three dimensions only—formality, color, and silhouette—so it won’t account for fabric texture, weather/season, trends, body type nuances, or cultural dress norms. It also assumes you want practical coordination rather than intentionally clashing/avant-garde styling. Use it to identify mismatch causes quickly, then fine-tune with real-life context (fit details, fabric sheen, and personal comfort).
