As they often have mousier “dishwater” tones in that blonde, they might assume that mousiness = “Cool” but in fact, like the hazy, grayed-brown tones of late Summer/early Autumn, neutrality can also lean warm.ĭrew Barrymore is a good example of this, as she was quite blonde as a child and leans blonde as an adult but looks better in the neutral warm colors because of the warmth of her eyes. Soft Autumns are the blonder of the Autumns and as they were often very blonde as children, they can automatically assume they belong in lighter seasons, associating blonde with Spring or Summer. I think “Soft Autumn” is the most confusing season to decipher because SAs lean neutral and can wear both cooler and warmer colors, like cooler purples and warmer/olive greens. Had it stayed as light but simply looked creamier/warmer, the look would have worked. She’s often listed as a “Soft Summer” but the conflict between her natural coloring and the hair, which needed more warmth but without red, was obvious in this film. I noticed while watching the movie “Easy Virtue” (2008) how subtle this discordant look can be, with Jessica Biel in platinum blonde. However, there is a significant distinction and weirdly enough, if you get it wrong, these are the seasons where you can look really “off” if you don’t get the cast right. I’ve noticed these are the most complex seasons to determine because they can be very chameleon-like, next to different colors. If you suspect you are a “soft” season, you’ll really benefit from a professional draping/consultation.
