Pure Purple

Are you fed up of your little black dress and looking for something different this Christmas? Why not try purple? Purple is a big fashion colour this season so there is plenty to choose from and with its connotations of luxury, glamour and elegance it’s perfect for the party season! Pure purple is also much more flattering than black for many people as it has warm and cool properties and therefore suits all colouring types. However, there are many shades in the purple family ranging from icy violets to deep royal purple and choosing the right shades for your own colouring can make a huge difference to how you look and feel! A colour analysis with an image consultant will provide you with swatches of the perfect purples for your colouring (along with all the other colours you can wear) but in the meantime the tips below should help.
Lights
Celebrity Example: Cameron Diaz
Features: Naturally blonde, fair skin, light blue, green or grey eyes.
Which purple? Lights wear the paler shades of purple well – lilacs and light periwinkle teamed with silvers, pewters and taupes bring out the best in them.
Deeps
Celebrity Example: Catherine Zeta Jones
Features: Dark hair (dark brown or black) and dark brown eyes.
Which purple? Deep, rich purples like aubergine and royal purple work best on the deeps bringing out their bold colouring. They can be worn with black or other strong colours.
Warms
Celebrity Example: Sarah Ferguson
Features: Red hair tones, fair or golden skin tones often with freckles.
Which purple? Warms have to be careful with the purple family. Icy violets and lavenders will drain them but they do look good in pure purple. Gold and bronze shades can be teamed with purples to warm them up and bring out the best in the wearer.
Cools
Celebrity Example: Judi Dench
Features: Silver, steely or ash blonde hair tones with cool (pinky or olive) skin-tones.
Which purple? Most purples look fantastic on the cools. Lavenders, lilacs, violets periwinkles and plums all work well. They should be worn with charcoals, silvers and navy for a cool effect throughout.
Clears
Celebrity Example: Demi Moore
Features: Dark hair, lighter skin, clear blue, green or topaz eyes.
Which purple? Muted shades like soft mauve and aubergine look drab on the clears. They need to go for the brightest shades they can find or team icy shades with bolder purples or black.
Softs
Celebrity example: Kylie Minogue
Features: Dark blonde to mid-brown hair tones, little contrast between hair, skin and eyes.
Which purple? The best options for the softs are the medium-depth muted shades of purple like soft mauve and amethyst. Teaming their purples with soft neutrals like charcoal and pewter will be most flattering to their colouring.
If you would like to find out more about the colours that suit you best why not book a colour analysis with an image consultant.
