Hi, nice to meet you! My name is Karen Young. I am a New York City-based color analyst.

I received my training at the in-person Color Analysis Mastery Program with the International Image Institute in Toronto, Canada, under Karen Brunger, the creator of the 16-23season system I use in my practice.

I have always had an interest in fashion and styling. Early in my career, I worked for Anthropologie’s NYC stores for 5 years, where I had the pleasure of styling hundreds of clients. I also worked in film and television, designing costumes and styling wardrobes for feature & short films, music videos, and commercials. Most recently, before color analysis, I worked in creative and design recruiting at tech companies Airbnb and Lyft. My experience in recruiting has given me a solid understanding of the importance of cultivating a personal brand and professional image.

I’ve been interested in color analysis since I was a child, so I’m thrilled to launch my practice! When you book with me, I assure you that your session will be fun, informative, and transformational. I absolutely cannot wait to meet you.
