Characteristic
Autumn color type is considered the most striking among the rest.. This is because, by nature, a fall woman has golden or red luxurious hair combined with blue or blue, emerald, brown eyes. The appearance of the fall color type is associated with the warmth and brightness of autumn colors.
Leather
Most often in women of the fall color type, the skin has a shade of ivory or champagne, as well as red-brown, peach, beige-golden, bronze or olive tones. Most importantly, it does not have a red undertone.
Sometimes the skin tone is similar to the spring color type and is characterized by the absence of a natural blush. Although there are exceptions in the form of a subtle blush of a shade of peach.
The skin tone is even and dense. Due to this, the skin looks healthy and not prone to imperfections. An exception will be freckles, which can both partially and generously shower a person.
Despite the “love” of the sun, in direct sunlight such skin quickly “burns out”. This is especially true for blondes with light pinkish-beige skin. Autumn representatives with darker skin “burn out” less often, and the tan looks even, lays well and lasts longer.
Eyes
Mostly, the autumn woman has dark eyes with golden spots. The main colors are brown with an amber tint, green (from light green to dark green, almost marsh), hazel, golden brown, ocher or walnut brown. Rarely, these are blue shades, gray, the color of light amber.
The iris is brown in the eyes and, as it were, radiates light and radiance. Probably, therefore, photographers love to work with "autumn" women. They are the most photogenic.
Fluffy thick cilia and beautifully defined eyebrows, close or the same in color with the hair.
Hair
The color type "fall" hair is characterized by splendor, volume, elasticity. Sometimes with a dark brown tint and always with a warm golden, honey or brick tint. The main hair colors are shades of chestnut, red, brown, bronze and red.
With the appearance of gray hair or giving the hair a different shade, it is better for a woman to "fall" to choose paints with red pigments or highlight red strands. But the blue pigment in the paint should be avoided.
By nature, the autumn color type has curly or simply curly hair, but there are also exceptions - representatives with straight hair. Curling irons and curlers are suitable for them in creating hairstyles. With their help, they can create lush and voluminous hairstyles. About short haircuts and strict hairstyles, this color type is better to forget.
Species and Subtypes
Autumn color type, like others, is divided into subtypes and subspecies. Two main subspecies are distinguished:
- Contrast This is fair skin combined with bright eyes.
- Natural. This subtype does not have bright contrasts and the whole appearance is generally sustained in the same colors.
Further about subtypes. There are three of them and each is designed in its own color palette.
Warm autumn
It can be considered that this is a classic or true subtype. It is characterized by warm shades of hair, eyes and skin. It has almost no contrasts. All colors and shades are smooth, matte, warm and soft.
Ideal colors for warm autumn are orange, yellow with gold, mustard, olive, brown or khaki. Absolutely not suitable for warm autumn - black, blue, hot pink and gray.
Deep or dark autumn
Such a subtype is characterized by a bright color scheme of late outgoing autumn, which goes into winter. In most cases, the hair and eye pigment in this subtype is very saturated and pronounced. The skin is also darker shades of autumn color.
The wardrobe is recommended to choose bright. So, emerald, green, dark and deep shades of brown, sometimes almost black, will fit well in late autumn. What should be ignored is clothing in pale, lavender or gray hues.
Mild autumn
The third subtype. It is considered the most moderate due to a mixture of soft summer and autumn palettes.
Soft autumn means light eyes and soft hair. And the skin is light beige cold tone. To soften the cold, the owners of this subtype should choose a color scheme of neutral shades: from light yellow to yellow, milky, light gray and mustard shades, khaki, light pink and peach.
Dark shades of blue, black and gray, red or fuchsia will not fit the third subtype.
Suitable shades
To determine the main colors in the wardrobe of the autumn color type, you need to consider not only subtypes and subspecies. The main criterion for choosing and combining colors will be colors. There are four of them.
Natural
Not a bright appearance with no contrast. All colors in one or close shade. As an example of natural color, such an appearance:
- Leather - golden beige.
- Eyes are brown with an amber tint.
- Hair - from light to dark brown with copper tint.
Contrast
Bright colors and shades that contrast with each other:
- Ivory skin.
- Eyes are gray with brown streaks.
- Hair - brown closer to a bronze shade.
Bright
In this case, there is one element in appearance that stands out against the other two:
- Leather - beige skin with a warm color.
- Eyes - in this example, the eyes will be a bright element. They should be a contrasting color with respect to the skin and hair and stand out against their background.
- Hair - blond hair with a soft red tint.
Light coloured
All three basic elements (skin, eyes, hair) in one bright gamma and spectrum.
- The skin is beige light with a natural faint blush.
- Eyes are light brown.
- Hair is the color of light copper.
Having a little understanding of all types, subtypes and other things, you can go to the general or basic palette of the autumn color type. First of all, we will figure out which colors are suitable for this color type, and will look most advantageous.
The base of the wardrobe are rich brown, brick, copper shades, as well as the color of cinnamon. It is this palette that most successfully sets off the skin. In second place will be shades of green, khaki, kerosene, mouse shades of brown and green.
The bright red color for the autumn color type is completely unsuitable, but its muffled and softer shades will be most welcome. These include salmon, tomato, terracotta, and cherry.
Do not forget about the violet-blue berry shades - lingonberries, blackberries, plums. Gray colors must be supplemented with an admixture of yellow. An example of this color will be a camel.
Cold summer and winter shades are completely contraindicated in the wardrobe of “autumn” women. As well as black and white. When choosing shades, the shade of the hair is taken into account. The darker it is, the darker the colors in the clothes.
As a conclusion: brown, green and red shades are suitable for the autumn color type. Depending on the subtype, saturation, contrast and other indicators of colors can vary - pistachio and olive shades of green, golden beige and dark chocolate from brown.
When choosing clothes, you should pay attention to simpler and simpler things. Glamor, outrageous, too strict suits - all this does not at all suit the bright and sunny representatives of the autumn color type.
As for the print, red-haired girls will undoubtedly suit folklore motifs, animal prints (leopard, tiger). In this case, such a picture will not look vulgar.
Create an image
It is worth highlighting several basic styles in clothes for the autumn color type.

The cage must be in the wardrobe of the woman "autumn". It does not matter at all what style the cage, plaid or branded from Burberry will be, the main thing is that it should be warm green brown or red.

For a richer make-up, the ideal colors will be shades of emerald, purple, all shades of green, shades of peach, bronze, cognac, as well as lavender and gold.
