Cream, ecru, *whispers* beige, and chocolate… warm neutral and natural tones are here to stay. We might have bid farewell to Millennial grey a while back but there will always be a need for neutral colours in our homes and wardrobes, whether they're a background to brighter colours or just for some visual calm.
We've picked out some of our favourite neutral trends and fabrics from the classic creams to nineties nostalgia and perennial favourite ginghams.
For a classic summery take on the trend, nothing is better than cream! Cool and chic, it's the perfect colour to beat the heat.
Go for subtle texture with our Cream Embroidery Waffle Check and Flower Cotton, romance with our Embroidered Floral Linen Viscose or cool simplicity with our Washed White Linen Pin Stripe or our Grid Print Bemberg Cupro. Add some interest and texture to your makes with our beautiful Plume Feather Buttons… and for more buttons go to the end of the post!
Nineties nostalgia is still going strong and the decade of grunge, plaid, and babydoll dresses sure had it's fair share of neutrals after the kaleidoscopic 80s. My beige plaid bias cut skirt from Oasis, paired with a raw silk strappy ecru vest and cream chunky heeled plimsoles where what 90s dreams were made of… *sighs in neutral nostalgia*
We have some PERFECT 90s fabrics for you, from our soft (and double sided!!) Cotton Gauze Check to our cool Chocolate Checkerboard Cotton Twill and our Brown Flower Cotton Poplin.
Another nineties favourite that deserves it own section is a twist on a classic… neutral ginghams are having a real moment this year, in fashion AND interiors. In soft beige colourways, these fabrics evoke quiet luxury rather than retro picnic blanket.
We have a few lovely neutral ginghams available at the moment from our medium weight Washed Yarn-dyed Linen Gingham in Brown, and our lightweight and textured Yarn-dyed Linen Crinkled Gingham in Beige to our Yarn-dyed Tencel Gingham in Beige.
Finally, some beautiful beige buttons to add to your neutral makes! Add some natural glam with Pure Shores button card, some texture with our Plume Feather Buttons and give your make a tasty twist with our delicious Chai Latte button set.
