There are colors that the eye will never tire of looking at. Of course, we are talking about calm pastel colors, and it doesn’t matter where: in the interior, clothes or something else. One such example is ivory. Indeed, for more than one generation of designers, architects and artists, they have been secretly praising it, painting a variety of products in it.
Ivory color: what is it
Translated from English ivory (ivory) - ivory, both in itself and its color. Everything is quite definite, but many people get confused, sometimes calling it creamy. However, closer to the truth is the color, popularly called milky. Of course, ivory has many shades, the lightest of which at first glance can be mistaken for white.
Of course, not everyone can thoroughly study all the colors and their variations. Moreover, under the name ivory, you can find anything: white with pink, coffee (deep ivory) or yellow tint. The classic tone is sometimes called off-white, although this statement is fundamentally wrong, but indicates their proximity in the palette.
Why everyone loves ivory so much
At first glance, it seems imperceptible, but if you look closely, the ivory color (the photo is in the article) can be found anywhere. So, acrylic bathtubs, beloved by many, often turn out to be off-white upon closer inspection. Such a "substitution" can be found very often, and this is understandable.
Light colors in the interior are pleasing to the eye, create the effect of additional volume of the room, but few people decide to choose white as the basis, considering it to be easily soiled. At the same time, he was already fed up, since until recently he was present in every house on the ceilings. Indeed, it was almost impossible to find a non-white color in this part of the apartment. By the way, on the ceiling, ivory will look harmonious, perfectly combined with the rest of the interior. On the walls, it will be an excellent base, and you can decorate the room and give it a twist with the help of stencils, wallpaper with a pattern, artificial stone or ceramic tiles.
When it comes to clothes, white is quite moody, and blue, gray and green shades turn pale, giving the skin an unhe althy tone. Ivory, even in its brightest manifestation, does not create such an effect, moreover, it has the opposite effect. And its additional plus is its versatility, since the colors that do not combine with it can be counted on the fingers. And, of course, this shade has a touch of nobility and sophistication.
Ivory color - wedding trendsetter
Dressbrides, despite all the fashion trends - the outfit is quite conservative. This is a tribute to traditions, the desire to fulfill a childhood dream and be a princess, and many other reasons. Few people dare to go down the aisle in red, orange or green. As mentioned above, the white color, with a lot of its advantages, is not without its drawbacks. Therefore, ivory, as the closest to him, but looking softer and more feminine, has recently taken leadership from his brother. Yes, and along with it adds luxury and chic.
Of course, finding wedding accessories, and most importantly - ivory shoes of the right shade - is not such an easy task, but doable and worth it.
