“Erling shows how Light Summer's powdery blues bring very light colouring into balance” — Stina Lönnkvist, Colour analyst
Light Summer is defined by a cool undertone and light colours, with low contrast between the features. Erling Haaland is a typical Light Summer: his light ash-blonde hair, blue-green eyes, and fair skin sit close together in value, so no single feature dominates. If your colouring has the same balance, build your palette around powder blue, icy grey, oyster white, faded denim blue, and pale lavender. Avoid warm camel, orange, and true black close to the face; they can bring surface redness forward or overwhelm low-contrast colouring. Light Summer differs from Light Spring in temperature: Light Spring is Light Summer's warmer and slightly clearer sister season.
Flattering
Cool sky blue echoes his eyes, while the white accents keep the overall value light and fresh.
Why it works
Less flattering
Warm camel clashes with his cool undertone, bringing surface redness forward and making his ash-blonde hair look dull.
Why it doesn’t
Light blue tones bring life and personality to tailored looks
Pair icy blue-grey with silver to keep the finish cool and polished
Choose soft navy denim over black and lighten it with oyster white
It's easy to confuse Light Spring and Light Summer because of their light, fresh appearance. Both seasons are light and have relatively low contrast. But while Light Spring is warm, Light Summer is cool. Light Summer's color palette holds more cool pastel tones with touches of blue and gray, while Light Spring's colors have more golden and peachy tones.
