What would you say for something that is very very white?
To make it easier: Imagine a white wall, how many different hues of white can you use to describe it?
Thank you!

White isn't a shade, yet will become so while shade mixes with it like in fabric. White outfits are available in 2 colorations yellowish off white which some will call cream, ivory...and bluish white that's the bone white or starch white. interior the previous human beings used to bathe their whites with a army colored substance to lead them to "whiter", because of fact otherwise they'd seem yellowish. Yellowish whites yellow greater with age and finally seem kinda like an outdated newspaper.

At the paint store, the most pure white is called "white white" then there are graduations of white colors going down from there, and I believe cream is the bottom color in a white, if that is what you are asking. You can go to a paint store and look at their white card and it will list all the white colors and show you what they look like next to each other. (These color variations would most likely apply to white fabrics, also)

There's got to be at least 25 different ways to describe white - just look up a couple brands of paint/tile and you'll find a ton. Eggshell, cream, blue/white, winterwhite, pure white......

There are as many different shades of white as there are shades of blue. Good luck with that.
