Fred Flintstone

Yabba dabba doo! Fred Flintstone is an iconic character from the animated sitcom The Flintstones. The first two seasons on the show ran in black and white, so we can say that Fred didn't acquire his final look until 1962.

Fred wears a bright orange leopard print combined with a blue tie. Orange is a vibrant and powerful color, just like Fred's personality. Blue is associated with security, and in fact, Fred is a very loving husband and father. Blue and orange are complementary colors — they have high contrast to one another and make the character stand out. Contrasting color schemes are found in nature, so this combination lends the character design a vibrant yet natural feel.
