Fashion High Five: Monochrome Is Having A Moment In The Style Limelight

A black and white palette ruled the spring/summer runways at Topshop Unique, Alexander Wang and Louis Vuitton. And street style stars in all the coolest capitals have also given the look their seal of approval.

The chicest of colour combinations has the trendsetters and fashion insiders all in a dither!


With design heavyweight Marc Jacobs at the helm, the Louis Vuitton collection showed a strong Sixties influence with graphic patterns and a palette of black and white. We predict this look will be all over the high street next season.

A hint of colour will really stand out against a head-to-heel monochrome look so plump for a tangy orange, pillarbox red or pretty pink pout. And don’t forget your accessories – bright shoes and clutch bags are the ticket for giving your monochrome outfits extra fashion oomph.

Painterly strokes, teeny geometric prints, graphic stripes and classic two-tone pieces are all bang on the money. 

Ready, steady… shop!
