Colour blocking is a great design trick to catch the eye. But if wearing contrasting bold colours isn’t your cup of tea, going monochrome is your best bet. Popularly seen on the runways of brands like Balmain, Acne Studios, Calvin Klein, and the recently concluded New York Fashion Week, this classic style is here to stay. Combining two colours that no wardrobe can do without guarantees a fashion moment each time. You will achieve that with not just a pair of boring black pants and a white shirt, though. A smart play on silhouettes, motifs, and patterns is what you need to make a statement in black and white, and Westside’s new style launches do just that. Here are three ways to ace the black-and-white trend with LOV by Westside’s latest picks.
Print wonder
Opting for browns and other autumnal tones is an obvious style choice for the season, but going monochrome will make you stand out. An easy way to do monochrome is to opt for black-and-white prints, be it floral or animal. You can wear prints as co-ords for a casual outing. Or pair a printed top with Westside’s solid black bottom wear for women for a formal office outfit.
Play with patterns
Investing in monochrome pieces is a great choice, as you can mix and style them easily. Like this stylish crop top and a casual dress with contrasting white embroidery, making it the perfect monochrome casual wear for women. The exaggerated sleeves add a designer touch to the dress. You can even pair the dress with casual pants or even salwar pants for another look.
A day-to-night look
Everything has been tried-and-tested with monochrome, so there are looks that you just can’t go wrong with. For example, go for minimal makeup with a nude lip and a classic black dress for your work. Switch to a red lip and into heels when heading for drinks with your besties post-work. If not a red lipstick, you can also add a pop of colour with your footwear or bag.
Easy or glam; casual or formal, whatever your style, creating a look will be breezy with these monochrome fashion fits from LOV by Westside, now available at your nearest store and online at www.westside.com.
