Light Summer.

Light Summer is the season of cool restraint – the morning haze, the bleached linen, the lavender bush in afternoon light. The palette holds the lightest end of the cool spectrum, where colours rest without depth and clarity holds without saturation. The maison observes that Light Summers are sometimes mistaken for Light Springs and shown warm pastels that turn their complexion sallow; the cool register matters and the signal is unmissable once seen. The signature of Light Summer is composed coolness at low value; the face wearing this palette appears refined, the features harmonised, the whole at ease. Warm yellows and golden tones flatten the complexion; vivid jewel tones overwhelm the natural delicacy; pure black creates a shock against the gentle register. The palette serves as a permission to wear softness – where many cultures equate elegance with high contrast, Light Summer's elegance lies in low contrast quietly held.

Note de transition.

As hair silvers, Light Summer's palette holds remarkably consistent. The cool register of the palette integrates seamlessly with silver hair – the two register as native to each other. Many Light Summers find that silvering simply makes their original palette more obviously theirs. The lightest neutrals (ivoire frais, blanc froid, gris colombe) become particularly central with silver hair, while the cool pastels remain as accents.
