Colours of a Season

Are we supposed to wear certain colours in certain seasons?

I know people usually associate rustic and mustard colour with autumn and pastel colours with summer…and may be bright celebration colors like dark green and red with Winter…so what’s for Spring then? :confused:

Actually, I think spring is soft pastels (it certainly is for this spring).

Summer is brights.

I can think of bright yellow and bubblegum pink, is that right?

And what about orange? I have an orange coloured dress, can I wear it in summer?

Bright turquoise, navy blue, red, dark pink, dark coral, bright yellows - these are some of the brights. Paler versions of these colours are for the Spring. Mind you, there’s always a “COLOUR” of the season - one that dominates to help the fashion houses remain current. And these days, a lot of colours can transition into other seasons as well.

Here’s what one website calls the colours of summer 2012:

Stuff like navy, bottle green and dark red I would associate with the winter colours - or even greys maybe.

Should be fine - any brights! Electric blue, bright green, anything!

Navy and red are both nautical colours and are definitely worked into summer colours. Bottle green I agree is definitely fall/winter. But again, all of these colours can be worn in other seasons, just in the right shade and fabric and cut.

I’m not a huge fan of wearing only certain colors for a season. Especially in winter - it is dull enough anyways, why add to the misery by wearing greys :grumpy:

Re: Colours of a Season

Yes I did think that also. I think it's the combination of colours as well which also makes a difference

I think its the overall combination of colors that matters. You cannot be completely floral in the dead of winter. But a splash of color or touches of what you like are not bad at all.
