Seasonal Type and Country of Origin

Over the last three years that I have been offering online colour analysis services, I’ve had the privilege of working with women from different parts of the world, including parts of North America, South America, Europe, Australia, Asia, and the Middle East. This is a short summary of some of the clients that I’ve worked with and their seasons.

This list represents clients with whom I have worked with personally and whose country of origin is known, and may not the totality of seasons in any given country. (However, if a given seasonal type is listed for a country, there is a likelihood that this season may appear more frequently in that country).

I will be updating this list on an ongoing basis. If a specific country is not currently listed, it will likely be listed here as I have the opportunity to work with clients from that county.
