Deep Autumn

Deep Autumn outfits

Use these three-color recipes as a starting point for clothes you already own. The shapes and materials are up to you.

Espresso, dark olive and deep warm teal supply depth without the icy edge of Winter. Dark combinations can be rich while keeping their warmth.

Three color recipes

Everyday layers

Greyish 2 for trousers or a skirt, Light Grey 2 for a top, and Light Forest Green in a scarf, bag or smaller layer.

A workday combination

Medium Grey for trousers or a skirt, Bland for a top, and Dark Aquamarine 2 in a scarf, bag or smaller layer.

A little more color

Almost Black for trousers or a skirt, Greyish Brown for a top, and Cocoa in a scarf, bag or smaller layer.

A practical rule

Choose the neutral for the largest garment, an accent for the smaller garment, and one detail. Repeat a color to tie the outfit together.

For this palette, begin with moderate contrast and adjust the size of the accent.

Try it with what you own

Choose one item from your wardrobe or makeup kit. Compare it with a chip, then look at the actual item in neutral daylight. Keep notes about combinations you enjoy.
