If I lower the depth and keep the warmth I go into peach and then eggshell white. If i turn the brightness up and keep the warmth level I get warm orange. You’re not really looking for the best colors, you’re looking for the worst ones and then tweaking their characteristics in order to find the depth, chroma and saturation. So if this is your worst color, play around with its characteristics.īright navy is still bright and cool but not dark/deep, if it looks less worse than black then deep is not important for you. If it doesn’t look quite as awful as ivory that means that cool is important.īlack is bright, cool and dark. Some greyish off white is still muted and light but cool. If this is your worst color, then pick other that play with these characteristics This is really about looking at the characteristics of the color that you know makes you look awful and then picking options that counter those characteristics. Hope this was helpful! Lastly, have you tried sage green? It's one of the greens in the Summer pallette, and if you're a Summer I imagine this would look better on you than Autumn greens. If I had to choose between orange or cool toned beige on me, I'd choose the beige. Though remember a color can look bad even if it's not a part of your opposite's pallette, for example I'm a cool winter and I look pretty terrible in beige/cream too, so it's vital to compare the colors to see what's the main issue. Keep in mind that Cool Summer's sister season is Cool Winter, and that Cool Summers can wear some of Cool Winter colors, as the value is not the main characteristic. Soft Summer & Soft Autumn - opposites are Bright Spring and Bright Winter, the issue is brightness of colors.Ĭool Summer - opposite is Warm Spring, issue is warmth. If you want to compare them, you can check if black or dark warm brown is worse for you. If the darkness of the color is what doesn't work for you, I would check these two groups. Likewise, Light Summer - opposite is Dark Autumn. Both of these pallette share brightness as their main characteristic, but are on the opposite spectrum. Dark Winter is the opposite of Light Spring. If you want to play around with worse colors, you can try to think of it this way:īlack - part of the Dark Winter palette. So tweaking the brightness and coolness helped me reach the characteristics I needed and finally land on a season. But we all have that one color that is absolutely awful and we hate it every time we wear. The cool blue, although muted, also looked less worse.ĭraping can be confusing if we don’t really know how “good” looks on us. The bright orange looked less worse than the muted one, so brightness is better. I tried a bright warm orange and a muted light blue next. Well, my absolute worst color cracked the code for me. ![]() We come from a place where we might not really know what actually looks good on us, so we don’t really know what we’re looking for exactly.Īlthough I always knew I was cool toned, I could never figure what season because I didn’t really know what a good color for me would actually look like on me. We’re usually told to look for our best colors, how well they look on us, how they help us pop and for some this is not very helpful. r/ColorAnalysis is not a place for self-promotion.
