Six stories to start with.

Palette combinations

Showing all six palettes.

01Neutral foundation
Ivory
Black
Gold-toned

Ivory, black & gold-toned

An ivory blouse. Black trousers. A warm metallic detail.

Let the light and dark pieces do most of the work; keep the metallic accent small.

02Neutral foundation
Sand
Cognac
Cream

Sand, cognac & cream

Sand layers. Cream knitwear. A cognac accent.

Compare the actual shades together. A dark brown bag may complement the look, but dark brown is not cognac.

04With red
Ivory
Black
Cherry red

Ivory, black & cherry red

An ivory blouse. Black layers. Red lips or nails.

The red detail can come from your own wardrobe or cosmetics. No new accessory is needed to complete the palette.

05With red
Cream
Cognac
Burgundy

Cream, cognac & burgundy

Cream clothing. A cognac layer. A burgundy detail.

Try burgundy in a scarf, manicure or small detail you already own. Compare warm shades in daylight.

06With red
Navy
Grey
Deep red

Navy, grey & deep red

Navy knitwear. Grey tailoring. A deep-red accent.

Start with one small accent. Choose jewellery separately for its shape, finish and how you prefer to wear it.

The accent is yours

Red doesn’t have to be the product.

Lips, nails, a scarf or a piece you already own can provide the red detail. These are styling suggestions; no cosmetics are being recommended or sold here.
