Find Your Season FreeWhat Is Deep Winter?
Deep Winter bridges Winter and Autumn — you have Winter's cool clarity but Autumn's depth and richness. You are among the most high-contrast types in all 12 seasons: very dark hair, deep eyes, and either fair or deeply olive/dark skin that creates a striking, dramatic picture. Deep colors and sharp contrasts are your natural home.
Skin
Either very fair with cool undertone or deeply olive, tan, or dark — both create high contrast with dark features.
Eyes
Dark brown, black-brown, very dark hazel. Deep and intense rather than soft or hazy.
Hair
Near-black, dark brown, or very dark chestnut. Naturally the darkest hair of any season type.
Contrast
Very high — the highest contrast of any Winter sub-season.

Style Tips for Deep Winter
- You are one of the few types who can wear true black and look powerful in it — use it freely.
- Deep jewel tones — sapphire, emerald, ruby, amethyst — are your wardrobe royalty.
- High contrast in outfits works: black and white, navy and ivory, burgundy and black.
- Avoid pastels and warm neutrals — they drain your dramatic coloring completely.
- Silver and white gold metals. Gold reads as too casual or warm against your strong features.
- Bold lipstick — deep red, berry, plum — looks extraordinary on you. Nude or peachy shades disappear.
