It’s helpful to know the colors that make you feel amazing for days you don’t feel your best and need a pick me up. This can make decluttering easier and less confusing and also help reduce repeat purchases in the future It can help us distinguish if we don’t like a piece of clothing because of how it fits, the shape, the cut etc or if it’s just because of the color.

#True autumn 12 tone skin#
Olive skin can often be confused with warm skin, but it’s actually cool because the undertone being blue (cool) and the overtone being green gives you yellow but when working with color analysis, your undertone is what you need to focus on. Before we move on I want to include a special caveat for olive skin. To learn more about these tests you can watch my video here.
To determine whether your skin is warm or cool, you can do the white paper test. WHAT’S YOUR UNDERTONE (HUE)? To determine your season, you need to first determine your undertone. Identifying which of these your hair, eyes and skin fall under results in 4 harmonious color groups named after the 4 seasons of the year - winter, spring, summer and autumn. WHAT IS SEASONAL COLOR ANALYSIS? A color analysis theory that all colors can be broken into 2 sections: Again, it is fascinating and telling that here in Australia, the designers of our seat of national government looked to the native tones of the land and used them extensively in order to convey a sense of harmonious natural authority in the new building.Seasonal color analysis is a tool designed to help us figure out the colors that are synergy with our natural eye, hair and skin color and wearing these colors is thought to make our skin look brighter, our eyes clearer and our smiles whiter. The scarf is Vintage Liberty, and mixes neutral-warm earthy reds, browns, and grey and creams. Here we see 12-Tone Corporate 6.7, which is close to My Pashimina’s Heron colour. The warm seasons in general are often surprised to discover their blues and purples, which for SA centres on neutral-warm periwinkles, grape-aubergines, and slightly greened marine colours. We began by comparing the soft autumn tone to the colours of much of the Australia landscape, and it is interesting to note that this soft, warm-neutral environment inspired the colour scheme for the upper and lower houses of Australia’s new federal Parliament House, where the designer took the traditional reds and greens of the Senate and House of Representatives, lowered the chroma, and arrived at something very close to the Soft Autumn versions, two of which are seen here with one of their greys – Jacket (Corporate 4.9), top (Classic 3.9), Skirt (Corporate 3.5): Another option is of course the extended range of grey and charcoal hues (4.1-4.5) from the 12-Tone Corporate palette:Īll of the tones gain authenticity and assurance when they respect their own tonal dignity, and in turn the wearer’s natural tone transforms their colours into the most appropriate and compelling of options: the colours are perfected by the wearer. Soft Autumn’s (SA) natural range is earthy, and their colours are those of the Australian scrub and the bush.įor maximum formality and simplicity, our Soft Autumn CEO might try something close to their darkest neutral brown (Corporate 2.3 or 2.5) or tonal black (Corporate 4.5), paired with a light value tone such as a neutral/warm soft white (Corporate/Classic 1.1) or ivory (Corporate 1.2) that is close to white but much easier to wear. If there are two seasons that struggle with the value extremes and contrast of formal monotone, it is those lowest in chroma – the twin softs.
