Trend Watch: Seasonal Color Analysis - Topic of the day 3/23/24

It's been something that's been talked about for many years now, but if you've been on tiktok, then you've been seeing it emerge again recently with filters or ai telling people what "season" they are and what colors work best for them. Do you think it's bogus, believe that it does make sense, believe it but don't think it should matter, etc? Let us know!

i feel like it's one of those Things people use to con people out of their money when the process of doing it yourself is basically free

well I think we can separate this from skin tone/etc. and think, what colors do I tend to like? and maybe that informs what other colors might work well with those?

yes; i think there's a distinction between building colors within an outfit based on your own preference vs a (faulty) algorithmic practice

for example, I enjoy these colors , so maybe I could look for other palettes with similar hues or whatever

i think it mostly circles back to min/max culture, people wanting the right answer to not look dumb but also not wanting to go through the effort of finding said answer

Aww with changing seasons I hoped this was gonna be just about seasonal clothing palettes not more skin tone stuff

Maybe we pretend it’s not about skin tone for the rest of the thread I’m a sucker for little mini trends this SS. I want a crochet top and more embroidered stuff I’m generally not great at colors tho

I love colors which remind me of a warm late summer (maybe early sept.) day, golden, dusty, slightly faded, lots of long dry grass, pretty flowers blooming, etc. I'd love to wear clothes which evoke that memory in me

Every year I have a main color/pattern (usually not on purpose, just my own trend that emerges), last year was bright red and stripes, this year is brown and tartan

animal print summer was fun last year though i may have grown out of it; i also recall wearing a lot of black which in hindsight was dumb bc hot

so that instead of having this conversation over and over in general chat we can just point people to this TOTD next time it comes up

idk some people thrive by having rules for everything

leans more towards limitation rather than rule imo. i feel like its a form of looksmaxxing that takes the joy away from fashion in general

i do believe in the idea of rotating color palettes seasonally (to some degree), but like. in the same breath, i don’t think limiting yourself that hard year round is going to be very fun to begin with
