La primavera llegó a este lado del continente, el sol nos acompaña con brillos aún débiles y el frío cede ante el cambio de estación.That is why even the color of clothing changes to be consistent with the climate that also manages to give us more enthusiasm and joy.
Por eso, consultamos a Ana María Uzuriaga, asesora de imagen, especialista en color, personal shopper y directora de Image & Style Training para que nos hable sobre los colores que se usan en esta temporada y nos brinda algunos consejos para dejar de vestir de forma monocromática.
“A season of bright colors is coming, the use of color contrasts is in a trend.For example, blocking color (use of opposite colors in the colored wheel).Among strong colors will be the bright yellow color, fuchsia, magenta, neon that crawls from the previous season.Also green parrot, bright red or orange.Also, soft colors will be used. Los contrastes fuertes de color están muy en tendencia”, señala Ana María Uzuriaga en una entrevista para el grupo El Comercio.
According to the specialist, it would be ideal for a color study where the colors that go with your skin, eyes and even the color of your hair are known, but as a general idea it recommends us to take into account the following:
“We have to know our skin tone, if it is clear, medium or dark.In addition, the contrast between skin tone and hair.If we compare them, you must give us a high, medium or low contrast, ”says the image advisor.
With this you can choose the color intensity that we can use, as well as the combinations of contrasts.For example, if you have dark hair and medium skin then I make a medium high contrast between my skin and hair, the colors I will use will be intense.Ana María reminds us that if you prefer to use soft colors, although it does not go with your medium high contrast, you must combine it with other colored garments that make it contrast.
“A clear example of high contrasts is actress Anne Hathaway, because the color of her hair contrasts with the color of her skin. Mientras que un contraste medio lo tiene su colega Jessica Alba y Jennifer Aniston tiene un contraste medio o bajo entre su cabello y su piel”, agrega Uzuriaga.
People who make high contrast, that is to say they have eyes and dark hair color need vivid colors.And those with low contrast must use soft colors, but it is not an exclusive rule, expresses the color specialist.
The image advisor recommends starting by using accessories in a trend to help give a modern look to your outfit.“If you do not like colors, but you want to use them, start using striking color accessories that also gives you a fresh air.And of a few your eyes will get used to color ".
“You could also build a monochromatic look, that is, a single color blouse and pants.That way you are risking a little more, ”advises Ana María, who adds:“ In the very formal and corporate areas, colors can go in the accessories and if they are more informal areas you are not afraid to wear colored garments ”.
