YOUR LOOK IS DEEP AND STRONG

Your colours are rich and deep, but lighter colours in the palette help create the high contrast naturally present in your appearance. Use colour combinations that pair light with dark to repeat this contrast.  

Personal style will also always influence how you wear your clothes and the colour combinations you prefer.

Helpful Hints

Neutral with Contrasting Accent

Contrasting Accents

All Dark

Work it ...
  • Depth contrast with colour contrast is especially flattering on you. A neutral with an accent colour.
  • Pair a light neutral in one colour with a different dark accent colour, such as Stone with Burgundy.
  • You can also combine a darker neutral with a brighter accent colour, such as Black-Brown and Emerald Green.
  • For depth or colour contrast combine just accent colours.
    • Royal Purple with Turquoise (depth contrast)
    • or Damson with Blush Pink (colour contrast)
  • An all-dark look works for you especially with striking accessories in an accent colour.
  • If you wear one colour, ensure its dark or vibrant.
  • For balance, wear the strong dark colours near your face.
  • If your lighter colours are near your face, balance the look with deeper/stronger coloured jumper or jacket.
  • Though your contrast is high, it’s not extreme, so take care pairing colours that are in stark contrast- opposites on the colour wheel can be overwhelming.
  • Paler shades can wash you out, they will look better worn with dark or bright colours.
  • Mid to later life you may change to a SOFT or COOL as your hair turns lighter.
  • Great patterns for you are bold, highly stylised forms of natural elements. Geometric shapes with round or rectangular shapes mixed together work well, and elements should be big and loosely arranged.

Don't do it ...
  • Two light colours together
  • Light and frosty colours
  • Muted colours
  • A monochromatic or neutrals-only look
  • Patterns | avoid stiff geometric, small and dense patterns. Natural floral patterns are not your best choice, if necessary, the flowers should be highly stylised, as in paisley and oriental patterns.

Accessories

Jewellery can be matt or shiny, a great way of adding contrasting colour. 

Glasses

Always choose a frame that is a colour, or metal from your palette. You can mix two or more deep shades or contrast light and dark tones. You can go quite dark with the tortoiseshell. (Avoid pastels)
