Rust on warm, clear skin tones (True Spring)

The answer

Close, but not a match. Rust sits just outside the True Spring palette. The nearest thing in the palette is #E8452C, ΔE 11.8 away. Under 12 reads as the same colour family; past 25 the two are visibly different colours.

It does not collide with anything on the season's avoid list, so the only question is distance.

How rust scores across all twelve seasons

Rust is an opinionated colour: True Autumn scores it 88 and Light Summer scores it 0. A gap that wide means the colour genuinely decides something, and getting it right is worth the effort.

True Spring sits 3 of twelve at 71, 17 points behind True Autumn. That gap is the honest size of the compromise, not a verdict on the colour.

• True Autumn: 88 (ΔE 5.0).
• Deep Autumn: 87 (ΔE 5.1).
• True Spring: 71 (ΔE 11.8) <- this season.
• Light Summer: 0 (ΔE 34.4).
