- PALETTE PAIRINGS: Allow the gravitas of grey to carry fledgling hues like sage, lavender or baby blue.
- MORE DASH THAN CASH: Look to high-street heroes COS for a Loewe-worthy Merino sweater (€89) and flared matching skirt (€99) in dark grey. www.cos.com.
- STYLING TIP: Try tonal dressing for maximum impact minus the effort or incorporate a pop of red (lipstick or a shoe) for a higher contrast look.
- LOOK LUXE: Incorporate natural fibres (wool, silk, cashmere), where possible, for longer wear-time and a more polished look.
