What does LOVAT mean in Scrabble?
noun
British
A muted, greyish-green colour associated with Scottish tweed, and cloth dyed in that shade.
Lovat takes its name from a Scottish family title, and weavers first used it to describe the soft, heathery green favoured in tweed produced in that part of Scotland. The colour blends grey, green and sometimes a hint of brown, giving it a muted, outdoorsy look that suits hunting and country clothing far better than a bright, saturated green would. Tailors and outfitters still list lovat as a standard shade when describing tweed suits, jackets and hats aimed at a traditional, rural style.
