Color Palette Dressing

Monochromatic outfit with a twist

One color trend – let’s admit it, it is easy! You just grab from your closet pieces with the same color and there you go… Hmm, not quite. The one color trend as we’ve traditionally known it has evolved. To turn heads and not raise eyebrows takes more than just dressing up from head to toes in black, white, red, beige or whatever color you decide on. Here is how it is done! 😊

Monochromatic dressing is one of the oldest tricks not only in style but in design overall. If you do it right, it can skyrocket your look and respectively your self-esteem. But here comes the catch: it is commonly considered “flat”, “boring” or “simple”. Wait a second! It doesn’t have to be like this. We don’t have to be glued to the literal definition of the trend, i.e. one color outfit. No, adding an extra color, or using the entire color palette of a certain hue, can surely enhance the effect and bring to your outfits high-end fashion and sophisticated look and feel. This color palette approach to monochromatic dressing will add more depth to your ensembles, and will open up your options too. Plus, in my humble opinion, there is really something very much refined and sophisticated about color palette outfits.

You can keep in mind only a few things and dressing like mavens ranking from Kim Kardashian to Gigi Hadid, Rhianna and Victoria Beckham, will not be a secret anymore. Dig into your wardrobe and pick a color that corresponds to your emotions today. Don’t miss to match it with your skin tone too. Using this one-base color, add different shades, tones and tints to create variations of that base. Wearing multiple layers of varied textures of one color adds depth and dimension to the look. It also creates a harmonious, visually cohesive look, which makes wearing one-color anything but boring.

Even though black, red and white are classics and work like color blocks, you can perfectly well color palette them and polish up the look by using textures and layers, sheer and transparent fabrics or different cuts to add dimension.

This simple approach will undeniably elevate your style and make your look sophisticated and expensive even if achieved with a minimum investment. Just aim for simple, structured separates and delicate, classic accessories for a minimal look or standout accessories for a monochromatic style with a pop. It’s painless and the style gains are guaranteed so go for it and experiment!

Wearing color palette outfit comes with undeniable benefits when executed with finesse. Think in spring green, autumn brown, winter white or summer blue colors. Add tones with accessories like bags, belts and glasses and play up with textures and materials. Check out below how it’s done by top designers for some additional inspiration!
