In fashion, the term "nude" can be completely subjective. It's also not a one-shade-fits-all formula. Rarely is nude an accurate reflection of the huge range of complexions looking for pieces that actually match their skin tone. The challenge of making a real nude was masterfully met with Banana Republic's True Hues collection.

Not only are the colours diverse enough on both ends of the skin-tone spectrum, but the lineup of top-to-bottom pieces includes nude basics that are pretty much a cornerstone of every closet. One of the most challenging items to find in a real flesh tone is shoes, but with True Hues you can find strappy sandals and everyday pumps that are the perfect shade and keep comfort in mind. No matter what's trending in fashion at any given moment, staples like these, particularly in a neutral colour palette, will forever be in style.
