Just to be clear, these three are Shades of white but I would also keep "White" in the list of colours
...white, natural, bone and off-white.
"natural" usually implies undyed especially for wools and cottons etc.
"ivory" could be substituted for "bone" especially for shiny silks/satins (wedding-dress fabric)
and "champagne" or "antique-white" could be substituted for "off-white" but really, the versions I've given you are fine
