Embracing monochrome means sophisticated and bold dressing. But while coordinating colors comes naturally to some people, others need a little more guidance in the color department. Though it may seem uncomplicated, monochromatic dressing takes practice and can be tricky, especially when you're choosing unconventional colors. As Elizabeth von der Goltz, global buying director at Net-A-Porter, told The Zoe Report, "Be careful when choosing a bright color. If you are going, for say, orange, choose a sienna or rust shade and pair it back with neutral accessories." So, unlike your classic all-black, fashion experts recommend accompanying your orange outfit with subdued colors.
While monochromatic dressing may have seemed dated as of 2021, the trend is experiencing a resurgence thanks to the fact people are now experimenting with bright colors. Glamour recommends experimenting with different "textures and proportions" to make it work for you. But in all honesty, that seems like extra work just to make sure your entire outfit looks sleek — which is a good reason for wanting to ditch the trend. If the whole point of the monochromatic look is to be easy and minimalistic, but the updated version requires more energy and thought, why bother? For example, if you want to mix up your colors, or you prefer the all-black look, then go for it. Fashion is a statement of personal expression, and at the end of the day, it's important to wear what makes you happy — regardless of whatever happens to be trending.
