Color analysis guide
How seasonal color analysis works
Seasonal color analysis is a styling framework for comparing warm and cool undertones, light and dark values, and muted and clear colors. The familiar four seasons can be divided into twelve palettes. Naming systems vary: true and cool summer often refer to a similar family, while deep winter is also called dark winter. Your palette is a useful comparison tool, not a rule about what you are allowed to wear.
Compare before you classify
Begin with two fabrics of similar brightness: a warm peach and a cool rose. Then compare light and deep shades, and finally soft and clear shades. Keep your background, expression and exposure consistent. Do not decide from hair color, ethnicity, veins or jewelry alone. If the difference is unclear, keep two possible palettes and try them with clothes you already own.
Turn a palette into an outfit
Choose a quiet base color for a shirt or jacket, one accent near the face and an optional third color in a small accessory. Compare neighboring palettes before buying anything. A screen swatch cannot guarantee a matching fabric or cosmetic shade; save the HEX references as a starting point and check the actual item in daylight.
What this free version can do
You can browse and download example palettes, take a self-observation quiz and compare colored frames around a photo in your browser. We do not infer your season from a photo, alter your hair, or produce an expert assessment. Personalized analysis is a possible future service, with no launch date or price promised.
