Why is it that Wansday and Morticia like the color black, but Director Weems is better off avoiding it

It’s not about whether you appreciate black humor and gloomy attitude or prefer marshmallow clouds and eternal positivity. This is from the realm of tastes and can vary.

Let’s talk about things that are obvious and objective – what adorns your appearance. Why here we fall out of the realm of tastes and stand on firmer ground? The fact is that this choice has already been made for you. It’s what nature has decided.

Black color either suits you or not. This parameter is embedded in the natural coloring – a personal set of colors of appearance. When we say that a thing “fits”, we just notice the fact of getting into the settings. This is how the principle of similarity works.

“Own” colors look harmonious, since they continue nature. Also, they always transform – make the tone of the face more even, highlight the shade of the eyes, etc. “Not their own” look separate from the appearance, forgiving and aging. You can wear them, but it will require additional manipulations. At least a well-considered makeup.

Black and white contrast is what the visuals of the movie are based on

To know your colors, it is worth determining your coloring. If you do not want to bother, you can practice on examples. The heroines of the series “Wansday” and their images – a great opportunity to do this.

First, the actresses are initially perfectly selected. Their colors are ideal for the realization of the intended visuals. Secondly, the stylists managed to dokrut even the smallest details, creating literally a visual instruction on how to work with their natural colors.

Black and white eyes – black and white clothes

So, the “going” colors should continue your nature. The darkest shade of appearance is the ultimate in depth. Meaning, unless you have black eyes and/or hair, the shades Wansday is so good in are best left to her.

Actress Jenna Ortega (Wansday) is a deep-colored and high-contrast person.

That means she can afford the highest level of contrast – black and white. Where the first color is charcoal black and the second is off-white. Her series mom, Morticia (Catherine Zeta-Jones), has similar settings .

Catherine Zeta-Jones also has deep color and high contrast

This level would not suit a natural blonde (light coloring) or a girl whose looks have a lot of gray pigment (soft coloring). They are better off choosing something that continues their nature. How great it can look, we are also shown by the stylists of the series.

Gwendoline Christie and Emma Myers are colorists for whom charcoal black is a little heavy. There’s no such darkness in their colors. The contrast in appearance is low, which makes the black and white combination too active.

This is not to say that blondes can’t be dark at all. First, their level of black (possibly dark gray) is exactly what will look like charcoal on them. Secondly, there’s always the option to upgrade the look. Makeup can bring it to the right contrast so that the face doesn’t go unnoticed and dark circles don’t linger under the eyes.

Emma Myers was made lighter but left ash in her hair, which is good for softened coloring

But it wouldn’t be magic. It’s more like a trick. When, creating an image, a woman uses her natural colors, a small miracle happens… Her face suddenly gets a fresh look, she gets younger before her eyes.

By the way, the natural palette does not limit you in tastes. If you are dark, it does not mean that you should always wear black. Every color has its deep, light and bright shades.

If you feel like it’s all from the realm of limitations, it’s worth working on accepting your nature. And that’s where Wansday can be learned from, too. The heroine is always focused on herself and does not retreat from her nature. Both in external manifestations and in internal ones.
