OBJECTS OF DESIRE
Subdued tones making loud statements
Words by Bridget Barnett
While there are plenty of ways to make neutral shades sound more exciting – ‘cereal milk’, ‘dusty camel’ – there is something just as satisfying about embracing the tones (white, beige, ivory, black, grey and taupe) exactly as they are.
The foundations of any functional wardrobe, these neutrals are clean, uncomplicated, effortless – traits that pair perfectly with simple silhouettes.
And while it is so much fun to embrace seasonal trends, there’s something refreshing about taking a moment to strip it all back to basics – a fashion palate cleanser, if you will.
Who wants a spoonful?
