“Selena shows True Winter's classic strength — black, stark white, and cool true red give her features more definition” — Stina Lönnkvist, Colour analyst
True Winter has coolness as its primary quality and moves between stark white and black in clean, classic colours. Selena Gomez's dark hair and dark eyes create a defined frame that can carry cool true red, cobalt, and polished silver. If your colouring has the same medium-to-high contrast, work with clear blocks of colour, graphic combinations, and blue-based lip shades. Avoid camel, mustard, olive, and rust; their warmth makes the overall effect muddy. Dirty pastels are also less flattering and take away definition.
Flattering
The bright red dress with blue undertones matches the lipstick, while a black belt and black buttons provide the graphic contrast that True Winter carries well.
Why it works
Less flattering
A mustard-yellow coat, camel-brown roll-neck, and gold hoops gather several warm tones near her face; her skin looks duller and her natural contrast becomes muddy.
Why it doesn’t
True Winter is one of the few seasons that usually looks at home in black. Paired with red lips, it creates an elegant look
Borrow acid lime from Bright Winter as the only colour statement and cool it down with silver and crystals
Break up head-to-toe black with polished silver beading and geometric jewellery. The shine adds clarity
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.
