Beige is a very pale yellowish-cream color.
The term originates from "beige cloth", a woolen fabric left in its natural color. It then came to be used for a range of light tints chosen for their neutral or cool appearance.
In the 1950s, the meaning of the term "beige" expanded to the point where it is now also used for a wide range of pale brown shades.
