This muted warm yellow is subtle and sophisticated, making it a perfect pick for the spring-summer season, says stylist Mitali Ambekar. She suggests pairing the colour with grey for a chic but fresh look, or with powder pink to amplify the pastel cuteness. The colour is quite versatile and can lend dimension to a variety of looks, depending on how you pair it. Colours like olive, rust, brown and clay tones will tone it down, while pastels such as seafoam green or baby blue will make for an easy-going daytime look.

The colour embodies femininity and elegance, Ambekar suggests pairing it with buttery yellow for a chic pastel combination, or black for contrast. A powder pink blouse worn with black trousers and nude pumps makes for an understated but elegant workwear look. Garments in this colour stand out when paired with rose gold and diamond accents, which enhance its softness. (In Pic: Aashim Gulati in a monochrome powder pink suit)
