Besides these pieces, I came across a few other pieces that involved a graduation of colour, namely from Burberry and Burberry Prorsum. The blue gradient striped polo from Burberry is a great match with the black denim in the picture, as the polo lightens up as it gets closer to the face, drawing attention to the person's facial features. The polo also darkens as it reaches the bottom, matching the black denim perfectly.
The next piece, a jumper from Burberry Prorsum, also has the same effect, with a mild gradient in this case, providing a subtle colour detailing to the outfit.
The good thing about these gradient pieces is that it not only draws attention to the wearer's face, but can also easily match any bottom. However, it would fit better whith people who have longer torsos, as those who have shorter bodies would look squashed in these pieces. Tall people do seem to have it better at times!

Very interesting article. I have recently purchased a gio-goi jumper similar to this colour style.
