Summary of Charge - Monochrome & Quiet Luxury

When talking about monochrome look, it's usually a use of one color palette but subtle different shades to create a full outfit - not only creating the outfit but also giving it depth. Quiet luxury, on the other hand, is a lifestyle philosophy that prioritizes intentionality, emotional resonance and quality.

The Monochromatic look Asserts that:

• Making one color look captivating should be effortless,

• Monochrome refers to an ensemble composed of items centered around one color,

• Matching and curating a cohesive full outfit,

• When approached with comprehension and skill, it's masterful.

Quiet Luxury argues that this trend aligns with the Republic's values of:

• Simplicity over performance,

• Precision rather than emotion,

• Styling as a lived act rather than a costume,

Monochromatic look and quiet luxury, each one alone is very powerful, but monochrome look in quiet luxury can easily be a hit or a miss, depending on different factors. We are here to find out.

The Court of Taste will now open proceedings.

422 Dispatch call:

6:50 AM - New York City.

A woman stands in her dressing room getting ready for work. She opens her closet and goes through every single piece of clothing she owns, nothing seems to make sense. She then opens her makeup drawer, always the same products. She then approached her bathtub pouring water for a bath, getting herself ready to light a candle.... WHAT? Not again.

She screams: "WHY IS EVERYTHING BEIGE?."

Dispatch: "422, state your aesthetic emergency."

Caller: "Razzato Code 1.109 - Beige. My name's Gelacei Rose from House of Gelato. I need help!"

Dispatch: "Ahhhh (in shock). This is an emergency. Copy that. Glide 06 en route."

The room is quiet while she waits. On the road, the officer is speeding, in a hurry to solve the matter. This is a lifestyle remedy.

Glide 06 arrives. Pen and paper in hand. Voice shaken but safe: "What did beige do again?"

Gelacei Rose: "Quiet luxury bores me to death. I opened my closet this morning, looking to get ready for work, all I could see was beige. I opened my makeup drawer, all I could see was lip balm. I, then decided to take a bath, and reached to a candle to light it up, well... (hands shaking), even the candle was beige."

Gelacei Rose spent some time thinking and kept going while Glide 06 is noting.

Gelacei Rose: "Yes, everything was beige. I'm over it, I'm bored. Mind you, talking about being bored, some of my favorite brands are Wardrobe NYC which has an amazing silhouette, Rose Inc., an incredible product range and Libertine has some of the best candles I own."

Glide 06 (Mr. Law): "Gelacei L. I'm officer Mr. Law from House of Gelato. From everything that happened, your makeup violates Razzato Law I, Codes 1.109 'Excessive beige repetition', 04-Q 'Quiet luxury is overdone and repetitive', Law II, Code 02-G 'Monolook makeup (no dimension)', Law III, Code 03-W 'Candle Overdependence'. Mr. Law took a small pause, read quickly through the notes and proceed. Mr. Law: "As for the brands you mentioned, we will investigate them. A report will be filed and an investigation will be started soon. A detective will soon be assigned to the case and you will be contacted for some follow-up questions. Good day!"

Back To The Station

Mr. Law has started looking through the notes and everything said by Gelacei Rose. Mr. Law also notices this isn't the first time this topic has been mentioned. Scrolling online, looking at the brands previously mentioned, Mr. Law can't help but wonder what can be done. After a while, Mr. Law approached a desk, only one fierce detective could solve this case - Mr. Lead.

Mr. Lead paused. If beige has returned... then something worse was coming.

This case requires further investigation. Mr. Lead from House of Gelato will be the lead. Case number: INV-G0001.
