Hi (: I'll be competing at a pageant in the summer and I want to pick out the perfect gown. The perfect gown involves choosing a color that suits me well. My skin is very light and my skin tone is cool, and I don't plan on tanning. I have dark ashy brown hair and my eyes are medium brown with golden undertones. The color I had in mind was coral but according to what I've seen online it doesn't suit me. However I have people tell me that I look good in every color because of my coloring. Is there a skin tone that can pull off every color? What colors would look the best on me? Which ones should I avoid? Do you think coral would look good on me? How about blush?

I had these color dresses in mind (: Do you think they'd look good on me? The first one in the blush/pink and the second one in the coral color.
Thanks!

Skin tones can wear different shades of colors that aren't usually suited to their skin tone in the base shade. For example, you probably can't wear orange as good or at all, but look good in peach shades which have a little pink in them ~ or a shade of coral that doesn't have much orange in it.
Hold the dress or whatever up to your face. If your eyes/face/skin appear more attractive and prominent, then these colors work for you. If your face and eyes kind of fade out or make your skin look bad, and the color itself is more prominent than your face, then these colors Don't work for you.
The blush/pink may be ok if it doesn't make you look faded out. Again, you need to hold it up to your face to see how it looks. That's one reason on line purchasing isn't great.
There's a book called "Color Me Beautiful" that helps with picking colors. It was written years ago, so it's in most libraries now. Go check it out to guide you more; it's really helpful. It has pictures of gals showing how their faces fade away and makes their skin look bad with the wrong colors, and how much better they look in the right colors. Try this website for help w/your colors > http://www.colormebeautiful.com/seasons/index.html They may have some examples on there like in the book.
It also helps to check colors in daylight up to your face as fluorescent lighting isn't true light, and can throw off the colors.

Answer
your question is not understood at all though, well if color has to be selected than you can choose the colors according to the skin tone and it also depends where are you planning to wear these colors. if you are attending an event in the night than you can choose to use dark colors and some event in the morning or in day time than you should go for the light colors..
