Seasonal Colour Analysis: The Secret to Unlocking Your Best Colours
Seasonal colour analysis is a method of identifying the colours that naturally harmonise with your skin tone, eye colour, and hair colour. By working out which shades bring balance and radiance to your features, you’ll discover a personal palette that makes shopping, styling, and dressing effortless.
Instead of trial and error in the fitting room, you’ll know exactly which colours to reach for—and which ones to avoid.
The roots of colour analysis go back to the early 20th century, influenced by art and design theories around colour harmony. But it really became popular in the 1980s with Carole Jackson’s book “Color Me Beautiful”, which introduced the four seasonal system:
Spring – warm, light, bright colours
Summer – cool, soft, muted colours
Autumn – warm, rich, earthy colours
Winter – cool, bold, high-contrast colours
Over time, this has expanded into more detailed systems (like 12 or 16 seasons), but the principle remains: the colours you wear should reflect and enhance the natural tones you already have.
Example of where the colour palettes are derived from - nature’s colours during the four seasons.

Identify your best neutrals (yes, there’s more than one shade of black or beige!)
