pearl grey
Soft lustrous neutral
Pearl grey is a soft, muted shade of grey with subtle warm or cool undertones, resembling the lustrous surface of a pearl.
It sits between white and medium grey, lighter and more refined than standard grey.
The colour appears frequently in interior design, fashion, and wedding palettes, where its understated elegance works well: The bridesmaids wore pearl grey dresses.
Also spelled pearl gray in American English.
