TRUE AUTUMN VS DARK AUTUMN VS SOFT AUTUMN COLOR PALETTES: DIFFERENCES

[@potatoes4lifersxd813]

based on this video i think i’ve decided i’m a combination of dark autumn and soft autumn. i never realized you could be two types at once and that makes total sense to me now!! i think i lean more soft autumn because i don’t have a super high contrast in my futures, but i’m also a soft dramatic body type so i’m able to pull off warm jewel tones and black

[@FilosoFashion]

Thank you for your feedback :)

[@mimidarkbloomxo]

I trusted you instantly based on how perfect your whole color image on yourself! You always look absolutely stunning and clearly you have your own image perfected

[@FilosoFashion]

Thank you so much 😊

[@vivirodriguezc]

I'm pretty sure I'm a dark autumn, but nobody ever says that type could have green eyes. Is very confusing

[@FilosoFashion]

You can have green eyes :)

[@lanadelgrad3102]

I have the opposite problem black eyes and light skin, but muted features so they also think I don’t exist 😂🤣

[@osmanthusc1220]

There are dark autumns with extremely light green or amber, golden and even orange eyes.These eyes look like a clear warm colored glass.My mother is one of them.

[@oonaghmolyneux7760]

Thank you for highlighting transition types. A Mac makeup consultant said I am ‘kind of neutral’. She gave me NW20 foundation (neutral warm rosy beige which neutralises cool undertones). When I wear NW20, I can wear autumn or summer colours. I am naturally dark hair, pale skin, hazel/olive green eyes. I also suit warm hair. Hairdressers said my hair needs more warm. Transition!!

[@FilosoFashion]

Oh wow! I love it when my words make sense :) Thank you

[@maloneaqua]

We need to have a real conversation about why the seasonal system doesn’t recognize clarity in deep warm skin. Dark autumn examples like victoria Beckham, Rosario Dawson, Camilla cabello and many more are not soft in the least. They lean warm, (just barely) and they can pull off most all of the DW palette including black and white which are supposedly off limits to all autumn’s. In fact they have much more colors in common with SW than they do with TA or SA. It’s not because they are deep that they can wear these colors it’s because they are clear - they NEED contrast to look best. Compare any DA in olive green vs. emerald green and it is obvious that they are bright, and that earth tones like bronze and copper can be far too full for them. They have intense coloring.

[@SheilaKaneDecoy]

Wow, this explains so much. I’m a soft autumn, who was years ago mistyped as a light summer. I wondered how I didn’t pick up on how inaccurate that was. Now, I know. Thank you !

[@FilosoFashion]

You are so welcome!

[@katreenah1000]

I have cool skin and deep blue eyes, and my natural hair colour has changed back and forth over the years from red, auburn, platinum, strawberry blonde, blonde, and ash blonde (still with some brassiness). I'm med-high contrast and feel deeper tones look good on me, both from WD and AD. Can I actually be a winter if my natural hair is so light? I can't do many Autumn colours like mustards, olives, or most oranges, so I don't think I'm primarily Autumn, despite the warm hair. Mid-deep rust is good, and red-violets are equally as good as blue-violets, same with teals. I feel there's a place for me in WD with AD secondary, but everything I'm hearing tells me I can't be blonde as a Winter, and I'm just too cool to be warm!!! Summer feels way too wishy-washy for me, although the more muted dusty pinks and pinkish-browns can look nice on me. Have you ever had a similar case?

[@zellalaing5439]

Your *natural* colour changed that much?

[@laurawells1711]

I know I am some sort of autumn but I have a hard time placing myself. Im not warm enough to be a true autumn (my skin is neutral). I thought I was soft autumn but I couldn’t find any celebrity examples who have dark brown eyes like me, but I can pull off dirty blonde hilights which makes me think I’m not a dark autumn either. Can anyone help?

[@zellalaing5439]

Just curious, do you find colours that are warm because of redness better than colours that are warm frkm yellowness? I keep going back and forth between soft autumn and deep autumn, I've found that the deep colours from soft autumn are my best colours - i think the issue with seasonal pallets are that theyre still split into warmth and cool first. But if its your third principle, it makes it confusing. Like, what if you look best in pale, bright, high shine, cool colours, there not really a pallet, so I find it best just to make subsections of exsisting pallets

[@klb9082]

I’m a soft autumn and it took DECADES to know this because they didn’t allow for more than the four seasons. This was such a great explanation - thank you!

[@FilosoFashion]

Thank you too :)

[@SuperCrueda]

I'm definitely an autumn (no idea what type) but depending on how tan I am I look really good in saturated shades of red, orange, yellow and blue? No idea how this works lol

[@FilosoFashion]

Thank you for sharing 😀

[@Anita-silver]

Great video. As a 65 year old DA, my natural hair has turned to a fairly bright creamy white. It looks light blonde indoors and white outdoors. I don't plan to color it and wondering how to work with the palette?

[@kitty_s23456]

Hi. With aging, you may have shifted from DA to SA. Try the soft autumn or warm autumn palettes. There's a vlogger, My over 50 fashion life, who was an autumn (in the 4 season system, in her youth). She was analyzed recently & her main characteristic was now "soft", so she can wear soft autumn & soft summer. I suggest to watch her vid.

[@veronicachic]

Wow, this is interesting because I deemed myself an autumn but i put on an indigo purple sweater and i thought it looked incredible, so it made me question if I'm truly an Autumn....but your video just answered that! Thank you

[@FilosoFashion]

I'm really glad you got it :)

[@onewisteria]

This is so confusing. I've always thought I had a warm undertone, because my veins are green and gold jewelry looks better on me although I liked silver. I get compliments when I wear my mustard yellow dress. Also I look great in pitch black but stark white does not seamlessly blend with me as black does. I am so freaking confused.Can I be a mix between dark autumn and dark winter??

[@FilosoFashion]

Yes you can :)

[@melissafoster9701]

I'm Scottish have very white skin with black hair and eyes what am I

[@happy_bubble7]

Excellent video. Can you please go in depth on figuring out your body shape and Kirchner type?

[@zellalaing5439]

Can I be a Deep-Soft Autumn, as in, Soft Autumn Pallet, but just the deep colours. My dominant feature is soft (I cant where shiny or bright things) followed by deep (regardless of colour deeper looks better against my no-makeup face. And then warm leaning, but red over yellow undertone look best (i have pale yellow-olive so i think it tones down the yellow whereas yellow based warm colours are too warm for me.

[@gratituderanch9406]

Is there a book on these? I’m not sure if I’m soft autum or soft summer or what? I WANT a pink to wear but struggle to find one that fits! I don’t look orange, but when I wear some things- it makes me look orange!

[@simbalantana4572]

Get draped in person, would be your best bet

[@nat-ff4rg]

i am still very confused! :( i am definitely an autumn, but i don't know which palette fits me. best! my mom says rich, dark colors look best on me because i'm very pale, but i feel like if they're too bold they can overpower me, not to mention i don't think i have enough contrast to be a dark autumn, seeing as my hair color is light brown (sometimes it even looks dark blonde) and my eyes, despite being brown, have more warmth than darkness to them, i'm certainly not deep enough for deep autumn. i feel like maybe warm autumn could be my palette, my hair is very warm to the point where it can look either a very golden brown or a very reddish brown, and my eyes are a very warm brown not to mention, despite being very pale, my skin's golden undertones are obvious however, i don't feel warm enough to be a wam autumn, my warmth comes in the sun and i can look extremely pale and maybe the more vibrant warm autumn tones overpower me too much however, for soft autumn, i don't feel muted enough and i don't think pastel colors suit me much (sadly, because they're my favorite, especially pastel pink but i think it makes me look a bit sickly despite the fact that i'll continue wearing it because i adore it too much

[@kitty_s23456]

Hi. Based on the colors that you said, it sounds like you're true/ warm autumn. You can also borrow from the 2 other sister autumn palettes.

[@irenep3704]

I can‘t understand if I am true or dark autumn. I have very light and very warm skin but my eyes are dark chocolate and my hair is dark brown with light natural red highlights. So I have a high contrast (according to the dark autumn Type) but my Skin is very light and I’m very warm to be a dark Autumn... my best Colors are mustard, aubergine, rust more than darker Colors. Colors from deep Winter palette are not fitting me well and silver doesn’t fit me at all, I would say Colors from the warm spring palette are fitting me better. But is it possible that a true autumn has such an high contrast? Or is it possible that I’m in between true and dark autumn?

[@electricbop]

Sounds like you lean towards true autumn or maybe warm autumn

[@irenep3704]

@@electricbop thanks ☺️

[@oonaghmolyneux7760]

You could be a deep autumn-bright spring transition type (like Meghan Markle). She can wear deep, pastel and bright colours.

[@magdakania643]

Great video! Loved it! So can a clear spring wear dark autumn as well as bright winter?

[@FilosoFashion]

Thank you :) Not all of them. That depends on whether you are under the influence of the transit.

[@magdakania643]

Ι wish you did the same style video for springs too!❤🎉

[@FilosoFashion]

There are lot of videos on this channel about spring types too :) More will come shortly

[@angelicagrills7123]

Thank you for the video. I'm still a bit confused. I thought I thought I was a dark autumn because I have dark brown black eyes and hair. But it's my skin that throws me off. I'm have darker medium olive skin. In natural light when I drape dark autumn colors some of them make my skin look dull. Too bright a color and it over powers me. I do have warm skin so I know cool tone color wash me out too. I can where certain tones of yellow and orange so I still think I'm an autumn. Black is a bit harsh on me. 😂 just confused

[@larissanavarro7341]

Can I be a True (cool) Summer and a True (warm) Autumn at the same time? Because my complection matches both and I feel like the colours from both palettes work for me (but i dont know if im wrong 😅)

[@kitty_s23456]

Hi. If that's you in your pic & it's your natural hair color, I think you're an autumn. Redheads are usually warm toned (and you look great in that blouse, which is a warm red).

[@larissanavarro7341]

[@KJW-js9bv]

What is your season? You look like a soft autumn to me

[@FilosoFashion]

Autumn transit 😊

[@KJW-js9bv]

Ooh, what is that? Do you have a video on transit seasons?

[@Das644]

Are you using true to refer to the sub season that have temperature as the main characteristic like saying true autumn instead of warm autum? Wouldnt true autumns be those that have a balance between warmth, greyness and depth such that hey can pull of all the palettes in autumn?

[@north-eve]

true seasons are called 'true' because temperature-wise they are strictly cool or warm or true to their season, uninfluenced by neighboring season, so yes, true autumn is warm autumn

[@Das644]

@north-eve in the 16 season theory there is true that means the pallete is truly autumn with the perfect balance between warmth, depth and mutedness, such that they are in the middle of the palette however there also is a warm.autumn which borders spring

[@north-eve]

@@Das644 i'm not familiar with the 16 color system, what set true and warm autumn apart? iirc in the 12 color system true/warm autumn is the same thing and could borrow some colors from true spring occasionally

[@Das644]

@north-eve the true palette is the middle ground between all the sub seasons of autumn in this case. It consists of colours from the dark autumn, the warm autumn and the soft autumn. A true autumn can pull off all the autumn colours from the soft to thw warm to the dark, equally, and because of this they are not able to use colours from other seasons(aka sister seasons). They are so truly autumn that the all of the soft summer doesn't work, and the dark winter also doesnt work, this includes the warm spring. Edit : check out "KettleWell colours" blog on the autumn pallette on google and compare the colours. She explains it well. Or "colour analysis studio" youtube channel. They have a nice video of an analysis of a true summer and you coul see in the model how all the summer colours worked but the sister seasons didnt

[@Das644]

@north-eve So in the 16 seasons, true seasons are different from "temperature" based seasons. If one is a true season for example true winter, that means their colour characteristics (for the winter palette) are well balanced such that all the colours of that season/winter all look equally good(this is relative of course). A true winter has the perfect balance between coolness, brightness and depth such that they do not lean towards one subseason and because of this they cannot have sister palette from another season because they do not have a primary/dominant characteristic. Dark autumn wouldn't work for them because its too warm and grey(compared to it's rightly balanced coolness and brightness), spring bright wouldnt work as well (because the brightness alone couldnt compensate for he cool and darkness true winter has), sane for summer cool. So basically for true winter in the 16 seasons, bright=cool=dark. With no dominant feature unlike say winter bright which would be something like brightness>cool>dark in terms of dominant colour characteristics. The true pallete has colours from the sub-seasons themselves

I have olive undertones but my skin is light with freckles. I have brown hair with a lot of red in it I have grey blue eyes… I think. I look awful in mustard yellow, my worst color. I don’t know what I look good in, but I instinctively avoid pastels and bright red and orange. I don’t know what color palette I am.

[@kitty_s23456]

If you don't look good in mustard & orange, you're most likely not an autumn. You're likely a cool season - summer or winter.

[@hawthorne1504]

@@kitty_s23456 I’m thinking soft autumn though? I do have a definite olive undertone, my skin is pale ivory.

@@hawthorne1504 Colour Analysis Studio analyzed a lady who was a light olive in their channel. It's the vid re: comparison of online & in-person analysis. She's a winter, from what I remember. You can watch that & see if the colors draped on her would suit you too. Orange & mustard are warm colors - they don't look good on cool-toned people.

When you talked about bright spring colors for true autumn it all maked sense. I think I look good in bright green and turquoise when my skin looks the fairiest, because this elevates my natural contrast (like in my picture). Thank you for an amazing video 🍁
