I saw a beautiful brown plaid suit at Louis Boston recently (Isaia I think). The blues and grays in the store pailed in comparison.

The OP is probably referring to the 'no brown in town' of the workers of the City of London. I'm sure there are forum members who work there right now who could give a more current view on the situation, but black shoes are traditional uniform for bankers there.
