The Autumn Palettes

Warm Autumn

Dominant Characteristic: Warm

Secondary: Muted

Warm Autumns look best in the classic colors one sees in autumn: fallen leaves of brown, yellow, and red; spicey nutmeg and pumpkin orange. As long as the colors are rich and warm, they will harmonize wonderfully with your golden undertones. Keep the colors in the medium range--not too deep and not too light.

Power Colors: Brown (most shades), Orange, Khaki, Mustard, Olive, Yellow Gold

Avoid: Fuchsia, Hot Pink, Cool Grey, pastel blues, black

Soft Autumn

Dominant Characteristic: Soft

Secondary: Warm

The Soft Autumns need to wear only the most muted of the Autumn palette colors, since the colors of the Deep Autumn palette are way too overpowering and the warm rich colors of the Warm Autumn palette are too much as well. You're coloring is quite neutral and you can wear soft colors from both the warm and cool colors but favor the warmer colors more. Avoid bright colors which will look garish on you. Like your sister season Soft Summer, your coloring can look a bit "mousy" and boring if you wear your wrong colors.

Power Colors Khaki, Buttermilk, Light Grey, Light Peach, Light Moss, Salmon, light lemon yellow

Avoid: Black, Dark Navy and Grey, bright red, fuchsia

Deep Autumns

Dominant Characteristic: Deep

Secondary: Warm

The Deep Autumn needs to wear the deepest and most vivid colors of the autumn palette. Rich dark chocolate, tomato red, Pine green are a few of the colors that will enrich your intense coloring. For maximum effect, pair deep dark colors with some of the brighter colors for contrast. Steer clear of soft pastels and light earth tones which are not strong enough for your coloring and will wash you out.

Power Colors: Deep Brown, Black, Tomato Red, Emerald Green, Rust

Avoid: dusty blues and lavenders, any light pale colors
