Expert Guidelines for Indigenous & Native People

Blend undertone science with cultural color significance for holistic guidance.

Step 1

Assess undertone on areas less exposed to sun, like under the wrist or collarbone.

Cool undertones align with Summer palettes including heather, pine, and glacier blue.
Warm undertones pair with Autumn palettes of cedar, copper, and sunflower.
Neutral undertones thrive in Soft Summer or Soft Autumn palettes, echoing sagebrush and sandstone.

Step 2

Translate regalia and beadwork colors into everyday looks.

Anchor outfits with earth-inspired neutrals like clay, obsidian, and riverstone gray.
Highlight turquoise, lapis, and coral accents drawn from traditional jewelry.
Use woven textures and natural fibers to connect outfits to cultural craftsmanship.

Step 3

Keep palettes versatile across ceremonies, work, and casual settings.

Layer denim or chambray as approachable neutrals that still reference traditional indigo dyes.
Integrate prints inspired by basketry or quillwork in analogous color families.
Coordinate outerwear with palette-friendly trims—faux fur, fringe, or bead accents.
