13Basically, this is when the main outfit of a [[FieryRedhead redhead, auburn]], or even a [[RoseHairedSweetie pink-haired]] character is (at least mostly) green. This trope can sometimes be used to hint that somebody is of Scottish, Irish, or in rare cases, Slavic or Jewish descent, but sometimes, illustrators use it for traditional RedGreenContrast or because they just feel like it. Bonus points if the character in question has [[GreenThumb nature-themed]] [[ElementalPowers abilities]].
14
15The trope comes from a long-standing tradition among fashionistas that red and orange hair contrasts best against green or blue attire, which is one reason redheads are encouraged to wear green, and sometimes blue, to make a striking visual appearance.

31* Noriaki Kakyoin from ''Manga/JojosBizarreAdventureStardustCrusaders'' wears a green [[SchoolUniformsAreTheNewBlack school uniform]]. Combined with his pinkish-red hair, it makes him have the colour palette of a [[TrademarkFavoriteFood cherry]].
32* Misaki from ''Anime/{{K}}'' wore a long-sleeved green shirt in his younger days. Now he wears green cargo pants.

37* Sailor Jupiter from ''Franchise/SailorMoon'' has a variation of this. Although Makoto's hair color is inconsistent in the manga of ''Manga/SailorMoon'', as it ranges from brown to auburn to pink and even blond in some illustrations, in ''Anime/SailorMoonCrystal'' her hair is definitely pink and her outfit is green.
38%%* From ''Anime/ShadowSkill'', Kyou Ryu. The trope fits so well, it's almost surprising that Elle didn't throw a net over her to steal her pot o' gold. (Administrivia/ZeroContextExample)
39* Kurama from ''Manga/YuYuHakusho'' loves this trope. He has long, bright red hair, and [[SignificantGreenEyedRedhead large green eyes]]. In some instances, he is seen wearing an olive-green Chinese outfit. Those bonus points may also be rewarded--he is a master at controlling plants.
40* Android 16 in ''Anime/DragonBallZ'', though his green "armor" is apparently part of his body.
41* ''Anime/VoltesV'': Subverted with Lozaria, the deceased first wife of [[spoiler: Prince Gohl]]. She has brownish-red hair, and in his flashback, she is seen wearing a green PimpedOutDress with yellow ribbons.
42* ''Anime/LucyMayOfTheSouthernRainbow'' has Lucy's big sister Kate. While Lucy-May often wears pink, and Ben, Clara and Tob often wear blue, Kate's clothes are almost always green. She also has reddish-brown hair that she inherited from her mother.

60*** ''[[ComicBook/WonderWomanCharlesMoulton Volume 1]]'': Queen Atomia is an EvilRedhead in a green dress, with green gems in her crown and other jewelry.
61*** In the [[ComicBook/WonderWoman1987 Post-Crisis continuity]], Diana's friend and temporary AntiHeroSubstitute [[Characters/WonderWomanAllies Artemis]] is a redhead who can usually be picked out from a crowd due to her long red hair and green suit, though when she was pulled in as a ''ComicBook/RedHoodAndTheOutlaws'' character her outfit got a recolor to red.

84
85[[folder:Films -- Animation]]
86* ''WesternAnimation/The3LittlePigsTheMovie'': Rublad, a red fox, wears a green vest. He even extends the aesthetic to his CoolBike, with the motorcycle being orange, and the sidecar, built to look like a shoe, being green.
87* The Ghost of Christmas Present in ''WesternAnimation/BarbieInAChristmasCarol'' is a redhead who wears a green HappyHolidaysDress (and the skirt is even Christmas tree-themed).
88* Merida from ''WesternAnimation/{{Brave}}'' wears a dark blue-green dress for most of the film, which stands out against her red hair. She's Scottish so she has the Celtic background down.
89* Danny from ''WesternAnimation/CatsDontDance'' is a red-furred anthropomorphic cat who typically wears a green shirt.
90* ''WesternAnimation/{{Coraline}}'': Ms. Spink, whose hair is turning a faded pink and who always wears an emerald dressing gown. All of the posters of her (and Ms. Forcible) as a young woman [[spoiler:and her Other-self]] show her with bright red hair and a green outfit.
91* ''Franchise/DisneyAnimatedCanon'':
92** Creator/{{Disney}}'s incarnation of WesternAnimation/PeterPan has red hair, and wears a green outfit intended to invoke leaves.
93** Likewise with ''WesternAnimation/RobinHood1973''. Any iteration of Myth/RobinHood is bound to wear the {{iconic|Outfit}} Lincoln green, which -- combined with Disney's choice to adapt the character as an anthropomorphic red fox in a WorldOfFunnyAnimals -- leads to this trope.
94** Taran from ''WesternAnimation/TheBlackCauldron'' is a redhead who wears a green vest and pants.
95** Fagin from ''WesternAnimation/OliverAndCompany'' sports bushy red hair and a large green trenchcoat, alluding to his book counterpart's portrayal as a GreedyJew by invoking imagery commonly used in Creator/CharlesDickens' time to code characters as Jewish (together with his SizableSemiticNose).
96** Ariel from ''Franchise/TheLittleMermaid'' has a green tail in contrast with her bright red hair. This was actually one of the reasons the directors of the film decided to make her into a redhead in the first place. This is downplayed in ''WesternAnimation/RalphBreaksTheInternet'' in that her shorts are green, but her t-shirt is purple, [[MythologyGag likely a nod to her seashell bra]]. Furthermore, while she wears a pink dress in much of the film, merchandise often portrays her in seafoam green dresses, not just because the color complements her red hair, but also because Ariel in pink would get her confused with [[WesternAnimation/SleepingBeauty Aurora]], who wears pink in merchandise but blue in film.
97** Quasimodo from ''WesternAnimation/{{The Hunchback of Notre Dame|Disney}}'' has red hair and wears a green tunic.
98** Anna from ''Franchise/{{Frozen}}'' has strawberry-blonde hair, and most of the dresses in her wardrobe are made of shades of green. The only exception is actually her most iconic outfit, her traveling clothes, which are blue and magenta. In ''WesternAnimation/RalphBreaksTheInternet'', her casual clothes include a green plaid shirt.
99** ''WesternAnimation/{{Zootopia}}'''s Nick Wilde is a red fox who wears a green shirt for the majority of the movie.
100* ''WesternAnimation/AGoofyMovie'':
101** Roxanne wears a turquoise shirt as part of her default clothing.
102** A straighter example occurs in ''WesternAnimation/AnExtremelyGoofyMovie'', with Sylvia Marpole and her bright green disco outfit.
103* Downplayed somewhat in ''WesternAnimation/ThePeanutsMovie''. The Little Red-Haired Girl wears a bright teal dress with matching socks and hair ribbon.
104* Cousin Mel from ''WesternAnimation/GrandmaGotRunOverByAReindeer'' has red hair and wears a green square-neck blouse.
105* ''Franchise/HowToTrainYourDragon'':
106** Downplayed with Hiccup. He has auburn hair, but one of his consistent cloth colors is green (i.e., green tunic, green pants, etc).
107** Hiccup's father Stoick is a straight example, as he has brighter red hair and, like his son, wears a green tunic.
108* The StopMotion puppet animation ''WesternAnimation/MadMonsterParty'' has Francesca, a curvy redhead who's in a green dress for much of the film.
109* Fiona from ''Franchise/{{Shrek}}''. [[LateArrivalSpoiler At the end of]] [[WesternAnimation/Shrek1 the first movie]], she becomes an ogress permanently and gains green skin.
110* Downplayed in ''WesternAnimation/TurningRed''. Ming usually wears a bright green blazer for most of the film but only briefly after the climax does she sport red hair. This applies to Mei's grandma and aunties as well except they wear dark green and/or teal clothing. Mei herself averts the trope completely: while she spends most of the movie with bright red hair, her preferred clothing is a red cardigan, pink polo shirt, and dark blue skirt.
111* ''WesternAnimation/{{Wolfwalkers}}'':
112** Mebh is a FieryRedhead who also wears a green dress. Not only is she Irish, her green dress also highlights her connection to nature as a [[OurWerewolvesAreDifferent Wolfwalker]].
113** Downplayed with Mebh's mother Moll; she's also a redhead and part of her skirt is green, but she mainly wears purple.

119* ''Film/BlackNarcissus'': Features Sister Clodagh wearing green clothes in her {{Happy Flashback}}s to her youth in Ireland. Her red hair is usually covered by her nun's habit, but in the flashbacks we see it loose and free, covered by a green scarf in one Christmas scene.

141* ''Franchise/{{Halo}}'': Before being visually depicted in ''ComicBook/HaloEscalation'' and ''VideoGame/Halo5Guardians'' as wearing customized tan armor, Linda-058 was depicted in the novels as SignificantGreenEyedRedhead who wore the same Olive Drab MJOLNIR armor as all the other Spartans. Even her appearance in the animated adaptation of ''Literature/HaloTheFallOfReach'' depicts her in an Olive Drab MJOLNIR armor but with a helmet that bares a resemblance to the one she wears in ''Halo 5''.
142* ''Literature/TheHungerGames'': Effie Trinket arrives in District 12 wearing a spring-green suit and a curly pink wig.
143* In ''Literature/SagaOfRecluce'' Healers traditionally wear green so the redheaded Jessyla is generally seen wearing green clothes of various types.

146* Literature/RickyRapper has red hair and usually wears a green hoodie.
147* Creator/RobertAHeinlein is a big fan of redheads in his stories, and often has them in green outfits.

148* ''Franchise/StarWars'': While Mara Jade is frequently depicted in a catsuit, the ''[[Literature/HandOfThrawn Vision of the Future]]'' book cover (and a photoshoot with model Shannon [=McRandle=] depicting the same outfit) has her wear a green tunic.

156* ''Series/HouseOfTheDragon'': Alicent Hightower dons a stunning green gown for her stepdaughter Rhaenyra Targaryen's pre-wedding celebration; a subtle indicator (or not so subtle, depending on how much you know about the Hightowers) that the two women are now political rivals.
157* ''Series/{{iZombie}}'': Rita/Gilda is a redhead and she's introduced sitting in a bright green dress.

184* Rosa Blackwell from ''VideoGame/TheBlackwellSeries'' is a redhead that usually wears green or cyan.
185* In ''VideoGame/BlazBlue'', one of [[OneManArmy Ragna the Bloodedge's]] alternate colour schemes is this. This may be to tie him to [[ElegantGothicLolita Rachel Alucard]], as she has a [[SomethingAboutARose rose theme]], and that particular colour scheme greatly resembles the look of a rose given Ragna's BadassLongcoat and [[AnimeHair spikey hair.]]
186* Cornelia from ''VideoGame/BoxxyQuestTheGatheringStorm''. She has bright red hair, and her default outfit is a very pale, mint-green dress.
187* Axel from ''VideoGame/CrazyTaxi'' is an inversion, having green hair and wearing a red dress.

222** Taken ''very'' literally with Petey Piranha. He is a plant monster with a red-colored head, while the rest of his skin is green. However, the only piece of clothing he wears is a pair of red underwear, so clothing-wise this isn't a very straight example.
223* The Zoologist from ''VideoGame/{{Terraria}}'' wears a green tanktop and has bright orange-red hair, which is apparently the result of the fox bite that turned her into a lycanthrope. During full moon or a blood moon, her entire body is covered in orange-red fur similar to a red fox.

239* Nin Wah the red panda from ''Webcomic/CommanderKitty'' almost always has an outfit with green. [[http://www.commanderkitty.com/2009/05/03/lefty/ She starts out with a big green longcoat and slacks]], though loses the former early on.

242* Princess Veronika in ''Webcomic/TheFourth'' has bright red hair and a green dress with white accents.
243* Sleipnir O'Hara of ''Webcomic/GirlGenius'' is a redhead who is introduced wearing a green jumpsuit and continues to show up in new green clothes every time she's seen in a new outfit. In Mechanicsburg it's a much more revealing green halter top.
244* Anvil from ''Webcomic/GrrlPower'' seems happy to play to the trope. Her outfit when she goes out to dinner with the rest of her team is primarily green, as is her choker (which is quite significant in the comic). She's also introduced in a green T-shirt.
245%%* Simone from ''Webcomic/LuminaryChildren''. (Administrivia/ZeroContextExample)

252* Keyleth of the Air-Ashari from ''WebVideo/CriticalRole'' at least in her initial appearances was generally described as a green outfit wearing, antler-headdress adorned {{druid}} with long flowing red-hair and [[SignificantGreenEyedRedhead green eyes]].

300--->'''Bart:''' People of Springfield, Whacking Day is a sham! It was started in 1924 as an excuse to beat up the Irish.\
301'''Irish Guy:''' 'Tis true, I took many a lump, but 'twas all in good fun!

321* As noted in the description, green and red are complementary colors, and many redheads are fond of green clothes and accessories as a result. The inverse also probably has something to do with it: redheads frequently have pale skin or a pinkish color to their skin, so cooler colors (such as blue, green and purple) are flattering for redheads. By contrast, warmer colors (like red, orange and yellow) can look unflattering (but not always). [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking Actually, hardly anyone with lighter skin looks good in yellow.]]
322* The Irish, who are stereotypically seen as very likely to have natural red hair ([[TruthInTelevision and there is actually some truth to this]] -- Ireland has the second highest percentage of redheads, only being beaten out by Scotland), also have a strong association with the color green.
323* In Argentina, the Pelirrojos Club (''Redhead Club'') make gatherings where their redheaded attendants wear green t-shirts.
324* In medieval Europe and for many centuries afterward, red hair and green clothes were commonly used to code characters as Jewish; since this was almost invariably done with antisemitic intent, a character being described as redheaded and/or dressed in green was usually the first sign that they were the villain of the story.
