The two colours

What cream and denim blue each bring

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.

denim blue

Mid-wash denim blue, the colour of classic jeans. It reads casual and relaxed, and behaves like a neutral against most colours.

Works best as: Jeans, denim jackets and chambray shirts.
