Fashionable Gray

With an LRV of about 49, Fashionable Gray is a mid tone: it absorbs more light than it reflects, so it reads deeper on a large wall than on the chip. It suits accent walls and well-lit rooms. Sherwin-Williams does not publish an LRV for it, so this one is calculated from the color.
