“As Carrie Bradshaw, SJP showed that the Soft Summer colours can be fashionable and far from boring” — Stina Lönnkvist, Colour analyst
Why Sarah Jessica Parker is a Soft Summer
Soft Summer combines cool undertones with muted colour and low contrast. Sarah Jessica Parker’s natural hair colour and soft green-blue eyes share that gentle blend. Dusty blue, smoky lilac, soft pink, greyed sage, and muted raspberry dress Soft Summer perfectly. Warm camel, golden greige, and yellow gold can make the skin look more yellow. To separate Soft Summer from clearer Light Summer, compare a dusty pastel with a clean one: if the dusty shade looks more balanced, softness is your guide.
Right & wrong colours
for Sarah
Flattering
The muted slate-blue dress and delicate silver jewellery keep the palette cool and soft, so her face stays in focus.
Why it works
- Cool
- Muted
- Soft contrast
Less flattering
Camel, olive, and yellow-green gather too much warmth near the face, making the skin look yellower and less even.
Why it doesn’t
- Warm
- Bright
- High contrast

best colours
Soft texture paired with grey feels flattering and gentle.
Muted mid-blue keeps the focus on the face rather than taking over.
Cool mauve, old rose, or dusty pink is more flattering than sharper pinks.
