Green Masquerade Masks

Green sits comfortably with black, which is why it works for black tie, and it lifts against gold or cream evening wear. In this range the masks themselves make the pairing for you: green with gold reads warm under venue lighting, while green with silver or white is cooler and sharper beside a dark suit or gown.

Yes. There is a glitter mask in emerald green, and a silver and green glitter design if you want the deeper shade broken up with a second metallic. The painted Venetian styles run through a range of greens, from the classic green abstract to the green harlequin, so it is worth comparing them side by side.

Most of the green range is half face, covering the eyes, brow and upper cheeks while leaving your mouth and chin clear. That is the practical choice for a long night, because you can eat, drink and talk without lifting the mask off. The high point Venetian shapes add height above the brow instead of coverage below it.

It is, particularly if you want to stand out from a room that will be largely black, gold and silver. Green photographs well against a dark gown or dinner suit, and the harlequin and diamond patterns here carry enough gold detailing to still read as formal rather than costume.

Yes. The black, green and gold Venetian mask and the green and gold styles have clean outlines that work with a dinner suit, while the harlequin patterns and the emerald glitter designs are the more decorative end of the range. The shapes are not cut differently by gender, so choose on outline and finish.
