I agree with you, Alrana, matching fabric of skirt is very tough and I think it usually looks off, and "matchy matchy" can be overwhelming. So I usually go for a complete contrast to skirt, in this case I'd do a gold lame, maybe liquid or tissue lame or even halographic gold lame becuase it doesn't wrinkle as much as regular tissue lame and would be stunning with that bra/belt. Gold chiffon wouldn't be dynamic enough for me, unless it was trimmed perhaps in a 1/2" wide band of dark blue sequins to "pick up" the colors of the skirt as well as bra/belt.

If there were a silk custom dyed dark blue gold veil, that would be beautiful but then the pattern could be too busy because the bra and belt already has a pattern.
