Gisele Bundchen, Soft Autumn
Start by understanding that every part of your natural coloring is in harmony with every other part. Believe this, because it's true.
Your eyes, skin and true hair color all complement each other perfectly, exactly as they are.
To look your most beautiful, you don't need to color your hair. You don't need to wear expensive makeup or expensive clothes. Truly.
You only need to identify the palette of colors that harmonizes perfectly with the colors that are already in you.
The natural palette of your body matches one of 12 palettes that differ in warmth, brightness and lightness. We call these different palettes seasons.
What are the 12 seasons of color?

What are the 12 seasons of color?
WARM or COOL
First, let's divide everyone in the world into two groups. In the first group is everyone whose natural colors harmonize better with warm color tones.
WARM
|
 Light Spring  Warm Spring |
 Deep Autumn  Soft Autumn |
Warm Autumn
Bright Spring
In the second group is everyone whose natural colors harmonize better with cool color tones.
|
COOL
|
 Cool Winter  Bright Winter |
 Deep Winter  Cool Summer |
LIGHT or DEEP? SOFT or BRIGHT?
Let's go from two groups to four, starting with the warm group.
Some warm people harmonize with colors that are not just warm, but also light and bright.
We call these people
SPRINGS.
Spring colors are
WARM, LIGHT, & BRIGHT
|
 |
But other warm people can only harmonize with warm colors that are deep and soft.
We call these people
AUTUMNS.
Autumn colors are
WARM, DEEP & SOFT
 |
|
Now let's divide the cool group in half.
Some cool people harmonize with shades that aren't just cool, but also light and soft.
We call these people
SUMMERS.
Summer colors are
COOL, SOFT & LIGHT
 |
|
And the remaining people in the cool group harmonize only with colors that are also bright and deep.
We call these people
WINTERS.
Winter colors are
COOL, BRIGHT and DEEP.

Now we have four seasons. How do we arrive at 12?
You may already know the answer...
Not All Springs
(or Autumns, or Summers, or Winters)
Are Created Equal.

Three_very_different_summers.
Notice that each season's colors have three defining traits:
|
|
In your season, only one of the three color traits is non-negotiable for the natural colors of your body.
The other two traits are moderatedsomewhat.For example, if you are a Spring, your colors are generally warm, light and bright.But how warm? How light? How bright?
That depends on what kind of Spring you are.
You could be...
1. A Spring whose true colors are
completely warmand fairly light & bright...
_______ a_WARM_Spring.
Warm Spring
OR
2. A Spring whose true colors are

OR
3. A Spring whose true colors are

a BRIGHT Spring.
3. A Spring whose true colors are

3 possible dominant traits within a season

One of these 12 color palettes is
precisely as warm or cool,
precisely as light or deep,,
and precisely as soft or bright
as the natural colors of your own beautiful body.
