12-season analysis has Dark, True, and Bright Winters and then the 16-season color analysis adds Cool Winter and changes the name of Bright Winter to Clear Winter. Seasonal color analysis usually categorizes 3 or 4 winter types. Winter flowers include: Roses, Gardenias, Poinsettias, and Fuchsias. The flowers of winter are also a great inspiration for the palette as they illuminate the sense of drama for the season perfectly. If you feel that black overpowers you, but your overall coloring is cool, then you may fit better into Summer. A Winter can still shine in pure black and pure white whereas other seasons look best when using these “colors” in small doses or not at all. Winter is the only season for which black is a color. S ome of the worst colors for Winters are soft, muted colors or truly warm colors like Earth tones and harvest colors. For icy colors, think of ice pink and ice blue (the color at the edges of snow) not true Easter pastel colors. When looking for Winter colors, look for brilliant, pure pigments in darker value colors along with pale icy colors for contrast. Although Winters are the only season to rock pure pigments – think primary colors – the key to their colors is actually contrast versus intensity. Like with this picture of red roses, the Winter Color Palette has a sense of drama and elegance. All Winters react beautifully to cool colors with strong intensity.

Again, the key is how the skin reacts to color. Their skin can be porcelain, ivory, and even olive or golden colors that range from light to dark. In terms of skin tone, they often have a translucent look to their skin and may or may not tan. A great benefit of being a Winter is that you look most harmonious with your natural hair color, so no need to spend money dying it! They also gray beautifully! Winters often have heavy, dark eyebrows and can have a range of eye colors including hazel, blue, green, brown and very dark brown (almost look black). Winters most commonly have cool, dark hair with a base color ranging from medium cool brown to black. Winters are generally dark haired with cool, light skin or dark hair and dark skinned.They key to whether or not someone is a Winter is that they are most harmonious in intense, cool, and contrasted colors. That doesn’t mean, however, that all Winters have light skin coloring.
The exception is a Winter who has gone gray or white. Given their contrast and ability to wear intense colors, they are rarely, if ever, naturally light haired. Nature paints these people in a black and white etching – dramatic and refined. Winters are lit by moonlight – the light as the moon is high in the sky. To be a Winter, you may not fit all of these descriptions and adjectives as they are certainly generalizations Two traits I find to be almost universal with Winters is that they rarely look casual (even in casual clothing) and can seem aloof or intimidating to others. Along with their elegance, Winters can often be perfectionists and become single-minded when working on projects. They are often classic, refined, stately, dignified, and formal. What Winters generally have in common is that they project a sense of calm restraint. The determined East Coast type and the regal Jackie O type. This is also true for the people of the Winter season. If you look at the picture of the winter landscape, it’s simple yet striking. There is a feeling of space and stillness as nature is at rest. Winter in her frozen splendor is regal, dignified and reigns with a commanding air.
There is a sense of vitality with strong blacks, deep blues, dark greens, and the sudden reds of flaming poinsettias. Icicles sparkle and purple shadows fall on the snow.
The sharp contrasts of white snow and the deep forest color of evergreen trees silhouetted against electric blue skies. Winter is awe-inspiring in its beauty and silence. When I picture the Winter color palette, I think of a snow-capped winter landscape. Not only does each season relate to particular color qualities, but also design style and even personality. The seasons, however, go beyond best colors. A personal color analysis is the tool that enables you to determine your season, and thereby, your best colors. When you utilize the colors that are inherent in you, people are focused on you and not your clothing.
The goal of seasonal color analysis is to create visual harmony by selecting a color palette that relates to your natural coloring.
