5 simple techniques to diagnose your client’s colour direction without using any drapes. Take a fresh look at why you should learn how to analyse your client’s colour direction without drapes; how and why to use these techniques; 5 simple techniques to analyse without drapes, plus 2 bonus tips.
Here’s a tip to whet your appetite; it’s taken from page 10 of the Workbook notes for this masterclass:
Gold and silver
As gold and silver are so easy to demonstrate and most of your clients will ask which looks better for jewellery, it’s probably a good one to practise yourself.
Of course you can use the drapes…
But the point here is not to! – see the title of this masterclass below for the reason why
So invest in some inexpensive gold and silver chains to drape round your client’s neck. I used to use those Christmas tree beads that cost about tuppence each.
For me, this is how I imagine my client.
I find gold and silver works particularly well for the imagination exercise (see page 9 in this masterclass), probably because that’s all we had back in the good ol’ pioneering days of colour analysis and it’s what I got used to.
Silver looks elegant on Summers and Winters
Gold looks so much better on Springs and Autumns
Just a side note here – most Winters, like me, look brassy (even tarty!) in gold near their face. Just saying!
