SMOKY NEUTRAL
Smoky Neutral is inspired by the color story of nature. The raw and rich brown variations from the previous season develop into the luxe brown and moves into blackened bitter chocolate and toasted sable brown. Combined with clean, chocky grey variations, this palette gives a nature-like and minimal impression.
