French term or phrase: gris slave

Salve a tutti,
alla voce 'colore' di un paio di calze autoreggenti si trova questo 'gris slave'. Ho visto on-line di che colore si tratta (tipo beige) e sembra essere il nome dato a questo colore da una marca specifica; consigliate di lasciarlo tutto non tradotto, di tradurre solo grigio e lasciare slave o di tradurre tutto?
Grazie mille per l'aiuto :-)

Ma meglio sarebbe chiedere al cliente..., a volte sui colori si usano dei nomi di fantasia che cambiano da una lingua all'altra

grigio

Explanation:
Dipende un po' dal target, "slave" - specie nel settore lingerie - può suonare, in inglese, un po' equivoco, sarebbe un gioco di parole un po' azzardato. A meno che non si tratti di intimo "particolare" (ma non credo, "slave" in francese significa altro...)
Io tradurrei solo con "grigio", o meglio "beige" (ho visto anche io il colore e sembra proprio beige), ma se possibile chiederei al cliente.

sabbia

Explanation:
Il colore esatto di "gris slave" è questo: http://www.colourlovers.com/color/D1BDA0/Gris_Slave (c'è anche il codice di riferimento)

Il colore mi sembra più simile al color sabbia. Inoltre lo stesso termine è usato anche per le collant in Italia: http://www.nemola.com/catalogo_omsa.html

Note to reference poster

Asker: Grazie mille Emanuela, ho adottato questa policy: ho tradotto il primo termine (il colore vero e proprio, come grigio, fucsia, blu, ecc.) lasciando invariato il termine 'inventato', come appunto 'slave', 'pop', 'cosmic', ecc. Grazie ancora!
