Color story: affogato brown

A deep dive into our favorite 1970s-inspired tone.

A defining color of the 1970s, dark brown is making a big comeback. And it’s no longer relegated to just autumn velvet and corduroy, dark brown is now a year-round tone. 

We love dark brown for its versatility. It’s both a color and a neutral, offering a sophisticated alternative to black in the fall and winter. In the summer, wear it with whites, creams, and pale neutrals for a chic contrast.
