Unlike traditional color draping, which focuses on seasonal palettes, Energy Draping goes deeper by aligning colors with your unique energy. In Dressing Your Truth, we identify your Energy Type within the Energy Profiling system. Each of the four Types has a corresponding color group based on tint, tone, shade, or hue. Let’s explore how to use Energy Draping to enhance your natural beauty and harmonize with your true self.
What is Energy Draping?
Over the years, I’ve experimented with colors from each of the four Types to see if they could help determine your Energy Type. However, I often encountered inconsistencies. Last year, I wondered if one color could be the most revealing in a draping process. I discovered that color—it’s yellow!
Energy Draping involves draping the color yellow from each of the four color groups to observe how each one interacts with your energy. This method helps determine the Energy Type by observing the vibrational interaction between the person and the color.
This is the first post in an ongoing series on Energy Draping. In an upcoming post, I’ll teach you how to create your own Energy Draping kit so you can apply this visual tool of Energy Profiling. You’ll then be able to drape your friends, family, and maybe even your pets.
The Four Energy Types and Their Color Groups
Each Energy Type in the Dressing Your Truth system corresponds to specific color characteristics. Let’s take a closer look at each type and what to look for during an Energy Draping session. You’ll notice that we aren’t making reference to eye, skin, or hair color. We are looking to the vibrational interaction between the person and the color.
