My understanding is that the tea dye or the natural color 
off-white-to-the-tan-side linen would be okay. However, white belts as 
sashes are still white belts. Yumitori-sama wears a white fabric belt, as 
does Mikaru-sama, so the white belt isn't reserved for leather only. 
However, decorating the white with other colors seems to be a good way to 
differentiate. I've seen white leather belts even with a red leather stripe 
down the center with a green narrower leather stripe on top. I've also seen 
white sashes with blue and yellow couching type decoration across the center 
in a pattern. I know I have plans to do a Hungarian bodice in white with 
multicolor embroidery on it and if there was a corresponding sash, likewise 
embroidered throughout, it wouldn't be a symbol of martial peerage.

The trick is to have it throughout so there's no chance of a large enough 
section being seen alone where someone would misinterpret that as a knight's 
belt.

Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one.
