What colour is fashionable skin? It's Nude.

Until very recently, the fashion industry's stance was that only a peach-pink (White) skin tone could be called nude. For example, in 2010, the British editor of Elle said nude is "a defined colour. It’s white nude, not black nude". Nude is also the name of Pantone colour 12-0911.

But in 2013, major fashion house Christian Louboutin was first to launch a shoe range in 5 skin tones, from dark to light. Skin-toned shoes, particularly if high-heeled, make the wearer's leg look longer since the leg and foot blend into the shoe. Louboutin's popular Nudes Collection later expanded to 7 tones with various heels. The shoe range continues to pose questions about racialism and to challenge the fashion industry to redefine "nude" so it includes people of all ethnicities.
