The two colours

What beige and grey each bring

beige

A light, warm neutral: soft, calm and summery. It is gentle next to the face on warm colouring and easy to pair with other earth tones.

Works best as: Trousers, trench coats and summer knits.

grey

The middle neutral: calm, professional and cool. It gives brighter colours a clean backdrop and makes an outfit look quietly competent.

Works best as: Trousers, suits and knitwear.
