Perth Winter Colour Guide
Layering colours for Perth's mild but variable winter — what flatters each colour season and what to layer over the top.
Perth winter swings from 12 to 23 degrees in a week. The trick is layering colours in your palette so every combination works.
Why Perth winter dressing is different
We rarely need bulky knits. The challenge is layering — and that means every layer needs to be in your palette so combinations don't clash.

Frequently asked questions
Should I own a black coat?
Only if you're a Winter or Deep Autumn. Other seasons should consider navy, chocolate or charcoal grey.
Is grey universally flattering?
Cool greys flatter Summers and Winters; warm greys flatter Springs and Autumns. They're not interchangeable.
