Share


Introduction
If you have a crisp, cool complexion—think ashy hair, blue or grey eyes, and fair or rosy skin—the Cool Palette is your secret to effortless chic. This guide delivers the best shades, outfit inspiration, and tailoring tips to help you look elegant, modern, and unmistakably you.

Understanding the Cool Palette Advantage
Cool palette colours are blue-based and bring out clarity in your features. Think navy, charcoal, icy blue, true grey, crisp white—tones that elevate your look. Avoid warm browns or earthy tones that can dull your complexion.
