I think it could be either:

Which length description are you looking for?:

taupe

This clue is a double definition.

'brownish' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'grey' is the second definition.
(I know that taupe is a type of grey)

(Other definitions for taupe that I've seen before include "Fifty Shades of Grey must include this" , "shade" , "Grey-brown colour" , "Grey tinged with brown" , "Greyish brown" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph, The Mirror and the Evening Standard.
