Gold and green might be the best match, especially in this case - the golden fish scales pop and Aquaman’s trident combined with the special green pants and gloves.
#5 Thor

It may be a surprise but this back-to-basics Thor look is what we love. It feels like a homage to Viking-type armor, and the asymmetric paint is a style we're interested in pursuing.
#4 Black Panther

The costume designer, Ruth Carter, said, “That triangle is the sacred geometry of Africa. I felt that it made his suit have this character that would, in the wide shots, make him this superhero, but in the close-up, you see this beautiful pattern that is consistent with a lot of the art of Africa and would turn him into this African king.”
