    I am looking for a winter cape for my December wedding.  Do you think I should do an Ivory or White cape?  The color is Natural White with raw silk material.  It gives the dress a silver look, I can't decide which shade or I am up to ideas of other wrap colors also.

    I usually think of white being a "cooler" color and ivory being a "warmer" color.  Because of the silver undertones, I would go with white.

    Hm...I think you shoudl do as a PP suggested and bring a swatch.

    White tones are difficult to intuit. Sometimes a white-white seems better in theory because it's cool like silver, but if it's got a different undertone, then it can look off--a little jarring in the same way that the contrast between a warm ivory and a cold silver can also work depending on the exact shades.

    I definitely think a white wrap would look more in place than an ivory wrap with a white/silvery dress. P.s. you dress is beautiful!

    I agree that a white wrap would go better with a silvery toned dress and for a winter wedding.

    I think white would be beautiful with that dress.
