The two colours

What beige and cream each bring

beige

A light, warm neutral: soft, calm and summery. It is gentle next to the face on warm colouring and easy to pair with other earth tones.

Works best as: Trousers, trench coats and summer knits.

cream

A warm, soft white. Gentler than pure white against the face, and the easiest light colour for warm and muted colouring.

Works best as: Knitwear, wide trousers and coats; a cream winter white is softer than stark white.
