In an interview with Vogue Armani he explained why the fashion house has always been fascinated by gray, as a nuance that is the perfect synthesis of contemporaneity: “I was looking for a shade that was warm but at the same time metropolitan, sober but not predictable. And greige is all of this to me: discreet, sophisticated and natural. I love natural colors, they give a deep sense of tranquility and serenity, and they are a foundation on which anything can be built. They allow you to connect other colors with each other, they make a link between distant shades possible. Greige is like a background color. Something that remains, above which you can imagine different combinations from time to time “.
