True Summer

True Summer celebrities

Celebrity season labels are commonly cited guesses. Public photos change with editing, lighting, dye and makeup.

Blue-based rose, misty blue and cool plum balance coolness with a softened finish. Cool grays can hold a wardrobe together without stark black-and-white contrast.

Use examples carefully

Camera white balance, makeup, tanning, hair dye and retouching can change visible color. Different consultants can assign different seasons to the same person.

Compare the cool, medium-light, soft palette qualities with your own fabric tests. Matching someone's hair or eyes cannot establish your season.

The color qualities to look for

Original palette examples, rather than colors extracted from celebrity photographs.

A practical rule

Use an example to understand a color mood, not as evidence that someone with similar hair or eyes shares your season. Only controlled comparisons can test a personal hypothesis.

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.
