01/ Black and White
The easiest colours or shades to start with for a monochromatic newbie are black or white. Want to add even more interest try a combination of both black and white. Everyone has black and white essentials in their wardrobe to create this sophisticated, powerful, and timeless look.
02/ Double denim
It’s an easy way to look pulled together at this time of year and we’re currently spoilt for choice, from structured shirts to floor-skimming skirts. Sticking within similar tones of denim is the key to keeping things stylish and not looking like you are off to the rodeo. To elevate your outfit further, add a simple white tee and some sunglasses to give yourself a cool but polished look.
03/ Combine fabric textures
When you’re wearing a single colour, especially if it’s a more neutral tone like whites, creams or taupes, you want to add depth to the outfit. The easiest way to achieve this is with different fabric textures like wool or silk. Wearing a head-to-toe neutral look is the essence of sophistication and style. Incorporating multiple standout pieces in various textures makes it anything but boring. Simplicity, versatile, and chic.
04/ Pattern Monochrome
It may initially seem overwhelming, but this expert level of monochromatic dressing lets your personality shine. Adding patterns is another exhilarating avenue to infuse depth and dimension into your ensemble, transforming it from ordinary to extraordinary. The secret to incorporating patterns into a monochrome outfit is to choose coordinating pieces from the same designer collection.
