The 12 color seasons

Seasonal color analysis uses three qualities of your coloring: undertone, depth and clarity. Four seasons, each split in three, give 12 sub-seasons. Each one “leads” with the quality that matters most for it.

How the three methods work

Quiz. Eight questions about your jewelry, veins, hair, eyes and skin. Each answer moves your scores for undertone, depth and clarity, and the closest season wins.

Selfie colors. You tap your cheek, eye and hair on a photo. The page averages the colors around each tap and measures them in CIELAB, a color space built to match how the eye sees. Skin hue gives undertone, the lightness of skin and hair gives depth, and the contrast between hair and skin gives clarity.

Drape mirror. Your camera shows a band of colored fabric under your face. You compare warm against cool, light against deep and bright against soft, then a last pair from the two nearest seasons.

There is no AI in any of them. It is a few sums, done on your device.

Get a better result

Use daylight from a window, with no flash and no filter. Take off tinted glasses and pull your hair back from your face. Warm lamps and colored walls change skin color on camera more than most people expect.

Questions

What is seasonal color analysis?

It sorts people into color seasons by their undertone (warm or cool), depth (light or deep) and clarity (clear or soft). Each of the 12 seasons has a palette of clothing colors that sit well next to that person's skin, hair and eyes. It is also spelled colour analysis.

Is my photo uploaded?

No. The quiz, the selfie tool and the drape mirror all run in your browser. Photos and the camera feed are read on your device and are never sent anywhere or saved.

How accurate is this?

It is a quick estimate. Room light, your camera and your screen all change color, and a few answers cannot replace a careful read. Use two methods and see if the same season comes up twice.

Which method should I use?

Start with the quiz. If you want to check it, take a daylight selfie with no filter and try the selfie tool, or hold colors to your face in the drape mirror.

Can Thraed do this for me?

Soon. Find My Color is coming to the Thraed app. It will read your selfie and check every piece in your closet against your palette, so you can see which clothes suit you.
