What color is Behr Fashionista?
Behr Fashionista N560-6 is a medium-depth gray with a noticeable muted violet cast, giving it a cooler, slightly smoky appearance. In daylight, the purple-gray character reads most clearly, while lower or warmer artificial light can make it feel deeper and more charcoal-like. It has enough presence for a study, dining room, or bedroom wall, especially when paired with clean off-whites and pale gray trim. Fashionista also makes a strong choice for cabinetry or a feature wall alongside light oak, brushed nickel, black metal, and soft white stone.

LRV of Fashionista
Fashionista has an LRV of 12.93% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 12.93%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
