Monochrome Monday: The Buttermilk Edition

Buttermilk is yellow with the volume turned all the way down and the polish turned up. It sits somewhere between cream and custard, the colour of café au lait foam, vintage silk slips and late-afternoon light on tiled floors. Softer than lemon, calmer than gold, it doesn’t demand attention so much as smooth everything it touches. On skin, it reads like a warm filter; on fabric, it turns sharp cuts into something quietly forgiving.

This week, Buttermilk steps in as the gentlest kind of statement. Designers are cutting it into chiffon gowns, embroidered skirts, easy day dresses, sculpted bags, timepieces and shearling-trimmed heels, letting the tone carry the mood while the silhouettes stay clean.
Here’s how to wear it now.
