"White is not a mere absence of color...

on Tuesday, March 20, 2012
"...it is a shining and affirmative thing, as fierce as red, as definite as black. God paints in many colours; but He never paints so gorgeously, I had almost said so gaudily, as when He paints in white." -- G. K. Chesterton

It has become apparent in the past few weeks at fashion shows around the globe that, even though Tangerine is officially the color of 2012, white is becoming a hot spring trend fast.

This is not a surprise. White is an incredibly versatile color. It can be combined with virtually any other color, it looks light, fresh and flattering on everyone, and  -  which is especially important in the working world  -  it gives a crisp, clean and adept impression in every profession or social setting.

White is the color of mental clarity and fresh beginnings; it signifies wisdom, peace and innocense. More shades of white are available commercially than any other color. It is a classic in clothing, interior design, landscaping and art.

It is also a perfect background for embroidery. Embroidery work on a white background is an immediate eye-catcher, which also make it the perfect choice to represent and advertise your company on clothing and other items.




There should always be room for a timeless classic like this white dress shirt for men in your wardrobe. The Poplin fabric, a tightly-woven and durable cotton blend, makes it comfortable to wear and wrinkle-resistant. A custom-made logo or design on the sleeve, chest or collar will give you a polished look anywhere, anytime.






If you are looking for something a tad less formal, maybe a little more approachable, but just as professional and put together, try a high quality polo shirt like this: It is made out of a material suitable for even the toughest jobs, and it is pocketless, so nothing will be in your way if you are working with machines, inventory, construction materials... or children, while still making you look professional, fashionable and well dressed.





Maybe straight up white feels a little too harsh for you, but do not worry, Orleans Embroidery has something for you, too! Try this ivory colored cardigan, for example. This softer shade of white is just as versatile and elegant, but a little scaled down. It is practically weightless, super-soft and has side pockets for your convenience. Add a custom embroidered design to make it your new go-to cover-up for work or play.





A great way to show your customers, guests, friends or family some appreciation is sending a small gift their way. Golf towels for the gents and cosmetic bags for the ladies are simple, yet useful gifts that everyone loves. Have them embroidered with your company logo for your customers, your family coat of arms for your grandparents, or your wedding date for your bridesmaids and groomsmen. Your color choice will prove that you keep up with current trends, and your gift will remind people that you truly care.
