Everyone is crazy about color analysis, but what are we talking about? Color theory tends to analyze people according to their chromatic characteristics to place them into four categories named after the seasons: autumn, winter, summer, and spring. Each season is broken down into its "absolute" version and three subgroups, which vary in value, undertone, and intensity.
Autumn people are characterized by a warm undertone and medium-low contrast. The three subcategories of this season are Deep, Warm, and Soft. In its deep, warm, and soft versions, the autumn color season is enriched with different shades, base colors to be combined with more neutral tones to create many different looks that are always capable of enhancing our complexion.
Today we will discover the characteristics of the Autumn season together and the Artigli clothing proposals to choose according to the rules of color analysis!
Autumn Absolute or Absolute Autumn clothing color palette
Hazel or dark green eyes, golden complexion, and brown hair: these are the characteristics of an Absolute Autumn. The three peculiarities of this season—warm undertone, medium-dark value, and medium-low brightness—are in perfect balance. In this case, the tones to choose for your clothing are all those with an orange base, the so-called warm colors: reds, oranges, browns, yellows, but also intense greens, such as forest green and pine green.
Instead, feel free to use patterns on a warm base, such as animal prints in shades of brown. Are there colors to avoid? Yes, it is better not to opt for overly bright shades and cool tones, such as the range of blues and optic white.
What are the shades to stock up on for an Absolute Autumn person: tomato red, mustard yellow, burnt earth, marsala pink, terracotta, warm brown, olive green, and teal.
Autumn Deep or Deep Autumn clothing color palette
Dark eyes and hair, and an equally dark complexion that tans very easily: these are the characteristics of the deep autumn. This season favors the darker and deeper tones of the Autumn palette: intense browns dominate, but also the deepest purples and greens that evoke the atmosphere of the undergrowth.
One of the most loved colors in this palette is coral red, which acts as a base tone, a sort of passe-partout that can be combined with the other shades of the season to achieve different results depending on the occasion: the final effect is that of warm and enveloping outfits that enhance the complexion typical of a deep autumn.
The shades to prefer: crimson red, wine, burgundy, imperial purple, dark brown, forest green, petrol green, and Prussian blue.
Autumn Warm or Warm Autumn clothing color palette
Warmth, warmth, and more warmth: the warmest tones are the must-have shades of this subcategory of the Autumn season. They go very well with reddish or brown hair with copper highlights and hazel or dark green eyes, while the complexion color is not necessarily dark for people belonging to this group.
What are the most suitable colors for the warm version of the Autumn palette? Neutral tones like camel and beige are welcome, but so are deep shades like moss green and tobacco. The warm autumn palette is also enriched with orange-based colors, such as peach, bronze, and terracotta.
Shades to mix: wine, olive green, brick red, brown, marsala pink, forest green, teal green, and medium gray.
Autumn Soft or Soft Autumn clothing color palette
Light brown or honey blonde hair and hazel or olive green eyes characterize the soft version of the Autumn palette, the most delicate among the subcategories of this color season. Very low contrast is not very frequent in the Mediterranean population, so it can be said that in Italy, the soft autumn is a rarity.
The best nuances for this subcategory are earthy and dusty ones, such as burnt brown, but also greens that are not particularly simple to match, such as olive green. When it comes to patterns, the ones to prefer for a soft autumn are leopard print and those on a mustard base.
Colors in the wardrobe: beige, light olive green, dusty pink, cerulean, pastel turquoise, brick red, taupe, and cream white.
