I wasn't suggesting a change of gloss to grège.
I was simply agreeing with you that the origin of the word in
English (greige) is probably the French grège, rather than
what Wiktionary says (combination of gray + beige). |

I think I'll stick with that gloss, which is in Daijirin. |

Wiktionary says "Etymology - Blend of grey and beige"
But Webster agrees with you, Jim:
French grège raw (of silk), from Italian greggio
First Known Use: 1926
I'd be more inclined to believe Webster than Wiktionary. |

Daijr says it's wasei (I don't agree). リーダーズ+プラス says it's from French grège (raw silk). |

Also, I found this, but the definition seems to be
misspelled:
グレージ色 【？】 grege; WI4 [Promote][G][GI][S][A]
