A 12 Season Color Analysis is admitting that 4 Seasons don't work for everyone.
Very true, they don't!
The Seasons are very precise because they are a mix of 3 specific color characteristics. Once the Seasons are broken down into individual elements e.g. Soft Autumn, then you will have a limited color palette which is extremely frustrating!
If the true Seasons don't work for you then you may belong to a TONAL Color Families and a full color palette is waiting for you.
There are 10 perfect Color Families, and they all use the same color characteristics. It's just about finding the best palette for YOU!
If you don't fit easily into a Season, you don't have to worry. There are 6 Tonal Color Families which might be just perfect.
Your individual natural coloring will determine the best Color Family for YOU!
There are 6 Tonal Color Families named after the color characteristics (that's just the way we describe colors:
LIGHT DEEP WARM COOL BRIGHT and MUTED/SOFT
There are also 4 Seasons (which I call 'complex' color families) which are a mix of 3 of those color characteristics (because of course we're all different!)
SPRING is Light, Warm and Bright
AUTUMN is Deep, Warm and Muted
SUMMER is Light, Cool and Muted
WINTER is Deep, Cool and Bright
Whether you have a TONAL Color Family or a SEASONAL Color Family doesn't matter in the least - the most important thing is that you find the best color palette for YOU!
Some people break these Seasons down into the 3 individual elements making '12 Seasons'. Very strange and very confusing because if a Season is broken down then the colors are diluted.
Every COLOR FAMILY has a wide and glorious color palette with plenty of choice for mood, occasion and even changing fashion. Who wants to wear just two or three colors for ever when there is such a glorious choice?
There's no need to dilute any of the palettes, just find the best one for YOU!
