What Is Seasonal Colour Analysis?

Seasonal colour analysis is a personal styling tool that helps you discover the colour palette that naturally enhances your features—your skin tone, hair, and eyes. Rooted in colour theory, this method places individuals into one of four seasonal categories—Spring, Summer, Autumn, or Winter—each with unique subcategories.

At Colors by Shiv in Lower Hutt, Wellington, we guide you through a professional and in-depth colour assessment to find your perfect season and shades.

Why Does Your Season Matter?

Wearing colours from your seasonal palette makes your skin look clearer, your eyes brighter, and your overall appearance more balanced. The right colours can:

• Reduce the appearance of tiredness or dull skin

• Help you shop with confidence

• Make it easier to create a cohesive wardrobe

• Boost your confidence and self-expression

Let’s break down each season and its qualities.
