In short: Mostly irrelevant and therefore worth deciding fast: a plain neckline in a tone that does not reflect colour onto the skin. Bright red or green clothing bounces onto the jaw and neck and has to be corrected later.
Colour. A plain neckline in a neutral tone. Bright red or green clothing reflects colour onto the jaw and neck, which then has to be corrected in every frame.
Fabric. Barely visible at a beauty crop, so the only requirement is that it does not shed fibres onto skin under hard light — knitwear is the usual culprit.
Footwear. Not in frame at all, which is worth saying because people worry about it.
The thing that ruins frames. Foundation that oxidises or does not match the neck. Under a large soft source at a tight crop, a jaw line where the colour changes is the most visible thing in the photograph.
