The two colours

What beige and olive 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.

olive

A muted, earthy green that behaves like a neutral. Utilitarian and warm, it looks strong in autumn and relaxed in spring.

Works best as: Chinos, cargo pants, field jackets and overshirts.
