Get the Look: 50 shades of grey - inspired by Lanvin

When the king of bright colours - aka Alber Elbaz - ditches jewel tones in favour of shades of grey for the Lanvin Fall/Winter 2013 collection, it has to mean something. Most probably, that grey is hot this season!
Grey is arguably the most under-appreciated colour, which is why it’s also the most versatile! For those on the go, grey is the perfect colour palette to go from chic to undisputed minimalism with just coat.
Using the right tone of grey helps you accentuate your skin colour as well as the natural highlights in your hair, so don’t be afraid to don this seemingly dull shade.
Add contrast to the ensemble by accessorizing with bold statement pieces in strong colours, especially metallic silver. This is done to perfection at Lanvin this season where over-sized quirky accessories stole the show.
Keep the look edgy by adding a touch of leather, to play up with texture and tone!
Lastly, finish off this tone-on-tone look with a dash of pristine winter white. This will help you create a non-dominant background, allowing your accessories and statement pieces to take centre stage!
