About This Palette

The soft autumn color palette features warm, muted tones that echo the gentle transition from late summer into fall. Think golden wheat fields, dusty olive groves, and faded terracotta. These colors have warm undertones with low-to-medium contrast, making them ideal for people with soft, warm coloring — hazel or olive eyes, medium brown or dark blonde hair, and warm beige skin. Soft autumn sits between true autumn and soft summer on the seasonal color wheel, borrowing warmth from autumn and softness from summer.
