Grey fashion pieces were shown at the autumn-winter collections of many renowned brands including DKNY, Simon Gao and Zeynup Tosun and it's hitting the high street too but opting for such shades needs a lot of attention and a perfect pairing.

Grey is a versatile shade, and a lot less harsh against dark complexions compared to black so one can try out this trend in the maximum way possible for the coming season.

An expert of Image consultant company Colour Me Beautiful suggests a few tips to help you get the look perfect, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

* The best description of the grey trend this season is off-duty chic. It looks effortlessly stylish, understated and tasteful. Whether you go for sharp tailoring, soft and slouchy, sports-luxe or feminine and floaty, the look is always understated and restrained.

* It's a great foil for bold colour; pick just one shade to keep it elegant. Pink is grey's perfect match this season unless you have warm skin tones then you should wear coral pink or orange.

* If you want to keep your look pared down then just add a splash of colour on a garment or in an accessory.

* From palest grey to charcoal, in pretty satin and lace designs, grey lingerie is looking chic and understated sexy too.
