Meet the 'groutfit.' That's a grey outfit to those of you who haven't already clocked the sheer volume of cloudy, skate-coloured, head-to-toe looks overtaking our street style feeds. Or is it just a case of matching our clothes to the weather (sigh)?

Either way, our favourite street stylers have elevated concrete tones out of the boring realm. It's all about texture and getting tonal. We're talking fluffy knits, bobbly coats, ribbed sweaters, felt shoes. Don't forget to grey-ccessorise!

Pick up this week's issue to see our edit of the best 'groutfit' pieces to buy now and see the gallery below for some of the best groutfits we spotted on our travels during fashion month...

This doesn't have to be a traditional suit though. Caroline De Maigret's raw hems and kick flares, or Linda Tol's shades of grey suit are both alternative takes on the trend, and offer a way to work a groutfit into your workwear.

It's All About Ankle-Grazing

Whether it's a midi skirt or a cropped trouser, a the only other colour coming through your groutfit is your skin. Keep it cropped and you'll be tacking two trends in one, like Eva Chen here.
