Gray is a neutral, versatile and elegant tone. It serves as a base for many outfits, both casual and party. You just need to know which tones enhance it and how to integrate them. Here we explain it easy, clear and with ideas that you can apply now.

Why gray is a key color in your OS closet

Gray works all year round, with all styles and for any age. It's less aggressive than black, more sophisticated than white and goes with everything. You can wear it in dresses, jackets, pants or T-shirts. And depending on the tone, it gives a softer or more elegant look.

At THE-ARE, we use gray in fabrics with drape, special finishes and stylish cuts. You can discover designs in our collection of dresses that play with this tone in a modern way.
