I was in this nude phase once. I found women wearing this barely – there – colored dresses and shoes so very attractive. Angelina Jolie, at one point, used to wear nothing else but this skin tone color. It’s called “nude” , which doesn’t mean she isn’t wearing anything.
In the world of fashion, the shade “nude” is alluding to this light, almost beige color. You can’t almost see it has a hint of color peach or pink in it. Others would perhaps call it “flesh” shade. Still others would consider this “taupe”.
The color has been such a debate now, especially after seeing First Lady, Michelle Obama, at a recent State Dinner wearing this nude sequined gown by Naeem Khan.
According to creative director Gale Epstein of Hanky Panky, “There is a wide range for skin-tone colors. Human skin tones are a whole color palette unto themselves.” They are creating a palette of nude shades for their latest line.
For Pamela Rowland, famous evening designer, there is no one exact nude shade. She says, “Nudes are a group of elegant shades, but there are a lot of specific shades. I can’t describe a single specific color for nude.”
Designer Whitney Post stills consider this “flesh” and says, “I use the word nude, but there’s really an array of shades that covers — it could be mustardy, cream or blush. They’re colors that look great on any color skin; it’s a group of universally pleasing colors.”
A nude shade, any nude shade and whatever you call it, would look in season right now, because it’s light and very subtle.
