WHAT IS PERSONAL COLOUR ANALYSIS?
How an artist's discovery over a century ago evolved into a modern tool for enhancing personal style and confidence.
Where did Personal Colour Analysis come from?
Personal Colour Analysis (PCA) started with artist Johannes Itten in the early 1900s, noticing how colours affect looks. In the 1980s, Carole Jackson's "Color Me Beautiful" book popularised sorting people into the 4 seasons based on their features. PCA has since expanded to be more inclusive, helping people of all ethnicities find their best colours and has gone global.
Seasonal Colour Analysis
The 4 seasons are used in personal colour analysis because they provide a simple yet comprehensive framework for identifying your best colours. Each season reflects natural colour groupings that enhance your unique features. The seasonal approach is based on colour theory and years of practical application, making it easier to find colours that suit your skin tone, hair, and eyes, ensuring you look your best.
Dive into the world of colours
Colours possess unique properties that significantly influence our appearance and mood. In personal colour analysis, understanding the properties—hue, value, chroma and temperature—helps you make informed style choices. Hue refers to the colour itself, value indicates lightness or darkness, chroma describes intensity, temperature differentiates between warm and cool colours.
