“Cool colours and clear contrasts bring Lucy's features sharply into focus” — Stina Lönnkvist, Colour analyst
True Winter is built on cool, clean colours and medium-to-high contrast. Lucy Liu's black hair and dark eyes create a graphic frame, and her skin's undertone harmonises with cool colours. Black, fuchsia, cobalt, and stark white keep her skin clear and her face in focus. Choose blue-based colours without haze, and combine light shades with truly dark ones for contrast. Avoid camel, mustard, warm beige, and bronze; they can cast yellow over the skin, while dusty tones blur its definition.
Flattering
The black blazer and stark-white shirt repeat the contrast between hair and skin; silver and a berry-pink lip keep the whole look cool and clean.
Why it works
Less flattering
The warm camel tones in both the roll-neck and coat look muddy against her skin; the tonal effect is muted and indistinct.
Why it doesn’t
Cool fuchsia and berry-toned lip colours are very flattering choices
Silver is your very best metal, while gold, copper, and bronze dull the overall effect
Choose large, bold patterns. Clean, separated colours keep the overall effect clear
It's easy to confuse True Winter and True Summer because of their cool tones. But while both have a cool undertone, the biggest difference is that True Winter carries much more contrast and clarity, while True Summer is somewhat lighter and softer.
