Look, we all have an inner goth within us and some of us – or most of us – find black to be the most comforting colour of them all. It’s a nice staple colour to have in your wardrobe and can literally be paired with any colour imaginable – even the rainbow.
But sometimes, we don’t want colour – and just want to stick to a noir vibe. Black on black… on black is the fashion that we have to attain this year and it’s all thanks to Miss Kim Kardashian.
However, layering black pieces only isn’t enough – and can be kind of bland – which is why we’re here to provide you with some tips on how to layer black the right way.
Layering Techniques
Wearing the same colour for your entire ensemble is about incorporating textures and fabrics by layering them on top of one another. For example, a ribbed black top would look too simple – unless you layer it with a black blazer to make your look super chic.
Adding differing textures, as well, adds personality and flair to your fit while still keeping everything super subtle. Black patent leather garments have made their way to becoming the ‘IT’ fashion staple in everyone’s wardrobe.
Here are some inspos on how to intergrate black clothes by mixing different textures for your ensemble:
Oversize It Up
Making black a statement piece is hard when your entire look is black. Hence, switch it up by adding an oversized piece to your outfit for that couture and effortless look. Making sure that that particular black garment is the statement piece is easy to achieve when you triple up the size. Be it pants or coats, oversized wear in an all-black ensemble is perfect for anybody, regardless of body type.
