If there is a color that started to gain prominence in European collections and is poised to establish itself definitively next summer, that color is buttery. Softer than optical white and much warmer, it has become the new staple for those seeking elegant and timeless looks.
Although it will be one of the stars of the upcoming warm season, it can also be incorporated today into winter outfits thanks to its versatility.
Head-to-Toe Look
A fully buttery look conveys effortless sophistication. The key is to mix different textures, such as wool, linen, cotton, or leather, to add depth to the look.
With Denim
The classic blue jean finds a perfect ally in the buttery shade. A shirt, a sweater, or a blazer in this tone light up the outfit and achieve a balance between casual and elegant.
With Chocolate Brown
Chocolate brown continues to be one of the strongest colors of winter, and when paired with the buttery shade it creates a refined and very current duo. It’s an ideal mix for those seeking a warm and sophisticated palette.
With Powder Pink
For those who prefer a romantic style, powder pink enhances the delicacy of the buttery shade. The combination feels fresh, feminine, and will be one of the most seen when the next season arrives.
With White
If you’re aiming for a bright and sophisticated look, pairing the buttery shade with white is a safe bet. Although the tones are very similar, the subtle contrast between them adds depth and elegance. It’s an ideal duo for those who prefer a minimalist, fresh, and timeless style, perfect for both winter and for previewing the trends of the next summer.
A Basic That’s Here to Stay
The success of the buttery color lies in its ease of pairing with almost the entire color palette. It works in tailoring garments as well as dresses, knits, and accessories, making it a smart investment to wear now in winter and continue wearing into the next summer.
