These Pieces Prove The True Power Of Neutrals
There’s always a case for loud and proud, sure, especially when the sun’s out, but we’re here to preach the equal power of neutrals. Greys, whites, and beiges too often fade into the backdrop of outfits, making way for brighter highlight pieces to steal the show. But, with the right neutral clothing, you can ensure that the quieter pieces in your wardrobe hold as much swinging power as the loudest.
From accessories to footwear, neutral clothing should form the bedrock to your spring/summer wardrobe. That’s because while the right neutral pieces have the power to lead your look with interesting silhouettes and beautiful texture, they also provide the perfect stage for a standout item if needed. They’re the humble, hard workers of the modern wardrobe, and they deserve a season to shine.
So, in honor of the power of neutrals, we’ve rounded up the best neutral clothing from names like Marni, Jacquemus, and Jil Sander with the help of MATCHESFASHION. Get ready to tone things down.

Jil Sander Cotton-Herringbone Bucket Hat
We spoke about the need for texture when styling neutrals and this Jil Sander Bucket Hat perfectly exemplifies that. A lack of detailing and neutral palette shifts the focus to the relaxed silhouette and the fine herringbone texture of the pure cotton construction. It’s all in the details.
Acne Studios Alisse Logo-Print Canvas Tote Bag
If you’ve chosen a highlight piece to wear, you can add impact by opting for neutral peripheries which work to frame the louder selection. This Acne Studios Alisse Tote Bag is the ideal, pared-back finish with its ivory palette and bold text logo.
Kuboraum Round Matte-Acetate Sunglasses
Berlin-based Kuboraum certainly isn’t known for its neutral offering, but this pair of round-lens sunnies complete with caramel lenses is the smooth accessory we need this season.
Polo Ralph Lauren Logo-Embroidered Cable-Knit Cotton Sweater
Cable-knit sweaters are all the rage right now, which is unexpected as we transition into spring and summer. Regardless, we’re here for it, and this neutral Polo Ralph Lauren classic is a foolproof selection.
