WHY IT WORKS
Hermès Oran (cream, wood block heel). Cream/ivory with wood heel against warm brown is a deeply considered tonal pairing. Wood heel against terracotta — warm family, different materials, different saturations. Most elevated and occasion-appropriate of shoe options. Wood heel introduces organic warmth that suits the brown dress's earthy character.
