Deep, earthy shades work best for winter office wear: burgundy, camel, mocha, charcoal, navy, olive and cream. Build your wardrobe on two neutrals plus one rich colour, so every piece mixes with every other piece and getting dressed takes less time.
Open your wardrobe. If it’s a sea of black and grey, this one’s for you. Save it, then go shopping.
6 winter colours to build your office wardrobe around
- Burgundy: warm, confident and great near your face.
- Camel: the quiet luxury of a minimalist wardrobe.
- Mocha: soft, rich and easy to pair with almost everything.
- Charcoal and navy: sharper than black, just as easy.
- Olive: an unexpected winter favourite.
- Cream: keeps heavy layers from feeling dull.
The formula: two neutrals plus one rich colour
Pick two neutrals, such as camel and navy, and one rich colour, such as burgundy. Everything mixes with everything. Formal wear for women looks most polished when the palette is limited, and getting dressed gets faster.
From the LÉNOR range, try the Light Mocha Flap Pants and the Chocolate Bow Tie Ribbed Top as your neutrals, with the Wednesday Wine Midi as your rich colour.
Why LÉNOR uses earthy shades
LÉNOR, like many premium workwear brands in India, leans on muted, earthy shades for exactly this reason. They flatter, they layer well and they look good all season.
