Arabic to English Art/Literary Poetry & Literature

Hi everyone,

This is from a Palestinian novel I'm working on which revolves around a mother and daughter.

I'm confused how the verb التلون works in this context. Especially as then there is a play on words afterwards where the daughter tells her mother that the colours she wears don't suit her. Here's the sentence:


أحدثك عن أخطاء الثورات. تحدثينني عن جرائم الأنظمة. أحذرك من اعتناق أفكار طهرانية غير قابلة للتلون، تحذّرينني من ارتداء ألوان لا تناسبني.

Thank you!
