Because my husband is a chef, we love to watch Top Chef. The host is
Padma Lakshmi, a beautiful actress and model. But what season is she?
In a recent episode, she was wearing green and then navy. I didn't feel like either of them did her justice, so let's analyze why.
 |
| Deep Winter |
My first thought was to be puzzled that she didn't look good in these colors because she must be a Winter (although maybe these are not such winter colors?). But she probably is not a Winter. I don't think she is as cool as I thought and she also doesn't have a lot of contrast, so if she were a Winter she'd be a
Deep Winter.

| Padma looks good in low contrast, warm jewelry |
 |
| She glows in this low contrast outfit that shows her skin to be warm. |
What seasons could this outfit fit for?
And what about her facial features?
She is either a 4/3 or 3/4 because she has the T4 parallel lines in her eyebrows, eyes, smile, and the T3 boomerang angles around her smile.
But I think this pic proves she's not a straight Type 4.

| White does nothing for her; she is too warm. |
 |
She can handle black due to her hair and her beauty...
but maybe that means she's a Deep Autumn? |

Here she is in Grey, proving she is no Summer!
Another vote that she is not cool toned. |
 |
| Another Summer color that makes her look drab. |
 |
| A cool blue only works with her hair but washes out her face. |
 |
| Much better in a warm blue. |
Here's a quirky idea:
 |
| Look how well she pulls of this orange. |
 |
| And this orange is amazing on her. |
What do you think?
Another idea is
Bronze in the Color With Style system.
Of course, Lakshmi is East Indian not Hispanic.
