Scandinavian style has always set trends that reach the rest of Europe a few months later. This time the change concerns one of the most basic elements of clothing, which are trousers. Instead of classic black, a color that is more subtle, more multi-dimensional and easier to style is increasingly chosen. Thanks to this slight change of colors, we can completely change the winter look and give it lightness, without sacrificing elegance.
This year, an unusual color will dominate, namely “graphite mist”. This is difficult to clearly define because it balances somewhere between charcoal and cool gray, with a subtle, washed effect that makes it look soft and stylish.
It is neither deep black nor typically ash-gray, but rather resembles fog hanging over the city at dawn, smoke scattered in the cold air, or asphalt after a light rain. It is subtle and modern, and at the same time has a visual lightness that distinguishes it from heavy, winter shades.
It is worth adding that “graphite mist” changes depending on the lightbecause sometimes it looks more silvery, other times it has a darker, almost steel tone.

This is a shade worth including in your styling, especially when it comes to pants, because unlike black jeans, which can be too strong or visually heavy, the graphite shade is soft and combines perfectly with neutral colors.
It is also a color that suits various styles. It looks perfect with wide leg trousers, simple models, as well as bell-bottoms or cigarette trousers. Women living in Scandinavia love this color and combine trousers in this shade with, among others, coats, soft sweaters and sneakers or loafers.
This color will also go perfectly with everything associated with Nordic minimalism. In addition, the shade also looks good with heavy materials such as leather, felt or wool. In winter, it is worth combining it with a gray scarf. However, if we like contrasts, we can wear winter accessories in lavender, pistachio or vanilla with trousers in this color, which will look consistent with clothes in the color “graphite mist”.
