#188: Stop Wearing Black! Colour Choice with Numba Pinkerton

from Check Your Thread: Sewing More Sustainably · host Zoe Edwards

Have you ever made a garment that you thought you were going to love, but ended up rarely reaching for it because you’ve realised that the colours drains you, or somehow makes you feel meh? It’s so disheartening when that happens. So this week I’m talking to stylist and colour consultant, Numba Pinkerton, about how to make successful colour choices for our garment projects, and the rest of our wardrobes. Plus, Numba tells us why most of us should remove the black holes from our clothing selections! Support the podcast over on Patreon! Find out more about Numba’s work at her website, and you can follow her on Instagram (@stylemeflawless).  You can sign up to Numba’s weekly newsletter at the bottom of the homepage on her website, and check out her e-book, ‘The No Black Project’.  If you are interested in studying colour analysis, Numba recommends checking out the London College of Style which offers an online Advanced Diploma in Colour Analysis for Creatives.
