True Autumn

True Autumn colors

Choose colors by their temperature, depth and clarity. A family name such as blue or pink covers many different shades.

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

Use the actual chip as a starting point and compare the fabric in daylight. A screen hex is not a fabric color guarantee.

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.
