True Autumn

True Autumn clothing

Build an outfit around two usable neutrals and one accent, then vary texture instead of adding more color.

Rust, golden olive and warm teal give a wardrobe a generous earthy base. Warm browns work as useful anchors and keep the palette grounded.

Colors to begin with

Choose warm, medium-deep, soft tones.

A practical rule

Try the color nearest your face first. Coats, knitwear and shirt collars affect the visual impression more than shoes.

For this softer palette, try colors of a similar depth together before adding a strong contrast.

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.
