Cool Summer / True Summer Color Palette
Cool Summer, also called True Summer, is the coolest of the Summers: cool rose, raspberry, soft fuchsia, cool lavender, periwinkle, cornflower and denim, with cool grays and navy-gray.
True Summers have no visible golden warmth at all. Their coloring is medium in depth and moderately soft — gentler than a Winter, cooler than a Soft Summer.
