Color Genie

I love the app, it has helped me color coordinate so much better, easier, and more confidently especially when wearing a shirt color other than white. The only feature that I wish it had was an option for suspender / brace color. Yes, I know, they shouldn’t show. However, it is impractical for those of us working in hot and humid climates to sit at our desks all day wearing a jacket or sports coat. I may be in the minority but I would dearly love and appreciate an option to help me color match my braces to my outfit. Otherwise, it’s a great app. Thank you for creating it for us.

I've been a regular viewer of AskOkey for a while and my own style is largely inspired by him. But I have to say at this stage this app is very lackluster. The color options I'd say are quite limited and the variety in garments is frankly disappointing. No double breasted suits, no data on patterns and textures, no options for occasion and situation and no options for details such as lapel width, tie width, pleats, the cut and the list goes on. From such a figure such as Okey I would expect much more attention to detail from this. There is so much value in combining different patterns and textures which is completely absent here. I do not like how you need to choose the shirt every time, there is no option for the app to recommend the user shirt colours, the colour options are very limited. I like the concept and I hope that the featureset will be expanded with time. Kindly take my words as constructive criticism in order to improve the app as there is nothing I'd like more than to have an app which can clearly recommend me colour recommendations. I think a feature which allows you to feed into the app all the garments you own and then the app automatically recommends combinations using items in colors you already own.

Color Genie is an ad-free* straightforward and accessible tool that curates a palette of colors for different garments based on your initial color choice of trousers or jacket and shirt. This results in the most appropriate color combinations for your ensemble. The interface is sleek and simple with smooth and swift animations. The illustrations are a parallel to AskOkey’s pleasing drape cut. The only critique I can think of is the desire for the ability to zoom-in. At times some of the colors of the ties and pocket squares become nearly indistinguishable from afar and a ‘Zoom-In’ feature would make it more convenient. I think the Genie is in its early stages and I await more additions in the form of illustrations such as casual garments and a double-breasted jacket. Perhaps other variations of footwear or trousers such as corduroys, jeans, etc. One can even see the illustrations become fully interactive 3D models, but that is a bit far from where the app is now. All in all, the app is suitable for any gentleman looking to put together a color coordinated and appropriate ensemble. It has good foundations and I await to what is there to come from the AskOkey team.
