MONOCHROME

Monochrome is a style built on a single colour, sustained throughout a look from head to toe in its various shades, tones and textures. Instead of contrast, the harmony and depth of one tone works here: for example, a whole look in shades of beige, grey, blue or entirely in black. Monochrome creates a cohesive, elegant and visually elongated silhouette, since the unbroken line of colour 'lengthens' the figure. The play is built on textures — matte alongside shiny, smooth with textured — which adds depth without variegation. It is a restrained, refined and foolproof device that always sounds expensive and considered. Monochrome is a style of intelligent confidence, in which the discipline of a single colour turns into refined elegance, and simplicity becomes the greatest sophistication.
