That was my favorite color combination for YEARS.
. . . Maybe this is why no one ever asks my advice on clothes.
For what it's worth, my worst color combination is navy blue and bright yellow. It's not out-and-out glaringly tasteless, but it sits there like an itch I just can't scratch and makes me want to punch things.
I want to know what the most filthy, noisome, horrid, spoon-on-eye, screwdriver-on-other-eye, gasoline-on-body, match-on-hand colour combination is.
The kind of colour combination that makes you want to try learning echolocation, just so that the narrow chance of you ever seeing that combination again is completely deleted.
Don't give any of those sue colours, or anything like that, by the way.
I don't want to kill anybody. Not directly, anyway.
I guess *blank colour* that only *blank creature* can see. I.E, Pistol shrimps.
Or any of Al's wardrobe from Quantum Leap.
His hat looks like a Paddle-Pop rainbow melted on a plastic baseball cap.
Who would have thought something so colourful could look so dead?
Lime green and pink, magenta or fuschia and certain shades of warm purple... Turquoise and yellow.
Start with opposites on the color wheel and make them bright.
Or maybe start with purplish country blue and find another shade of blue that makes it look gray. We discovered that with a medium green-toned blue.
Go to a paint store and start playing with the chips.

This might be a little early, but I really, really think you won.
I found a picture of green polka dots on a pink background, and someone put little white borders outside the dots, as if separating them a little will make everything okay.
It's not okay! Nothing's okay!
If I saw somebody walking down the street wearing a pink tie with lime-green stripes, I think I would actually attack them. Physically.
I might insult their mother, while I'm at it.
Congratulations, Sir, or Madam.
