Reminds me of the scene in 10 Things I Hate About You when they find black underwear in Kat's drawer.

"You don't buy black underwear unless you want someone to see it!"

Well, I was thinking Grace Brothers Department Store, as in "Are You Being Served?", but yeah!

I was just thinking about those color-personality tests. The colors are Red, Blue, Yellow, and White.

Being Red means wanting to be in control, organized, and the perfect type to run yout own business. So i was thinking since those things apply to patty that it is fitting for her to wear red.

Also, Blue, is a loyal friend, a peacemaker, a good person, dominated by emotions. Fitting that Rickie is wearing blue, because he is the definition of blue.

Just a few thoughts.

Found another example, from "The New Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain" by Betty Edwards. (A great text for the novice artist, BTW)

Surrealist artists were fascinated by psychological meanings of colors. Oddly, each hue has both a positive and negative connotation in most cultures. For example, consider the following:
White: innocence and ghostliness

Black: restful strength and depression

Yellow: nobility and treason

Red: ardent love and sin

Blue: truth and despondency

Purple: dignity and grief

Green: growth and jealousy

Yellow Goldenrod is the most likely color to grap someones attention from a marketing standpoint.

Which I have to agree with cause a Yellow Spring Dress always catches my attention!
