Soft Autumn vs True Autumn — how do I tell?

Both are warm. Soft Autumn is muted (dusty terracotta, warm sage); True Autumn is richer and more saturated (rust, mustard, forest green). If saturated colors overwhelm you, you're Soft.

Can Soft Autumns wear black?

Not next to the face. Warm ink or warm brown do the same job without the drain.

What's the best Soft Autumn red?

Muted terracotta, brick, or warm cranberry. Never bright red or coral.

Is Soft Autumn a warm or neutral season?

Warm-neutral. The undertone leans warm, but the mutedness pulls it toward neutral — which is why some cool colors (dusty rose, mauve) sneak into the extended palette.
