Black is always in style – it is simply timeless. It is not a color, it is a lifestyle. It is fashion and will always be fashion. Whether it is Summer, Fall, Spring or Winter. Whether it is Milan or Paris fashion week, every designer includes this color in his or her collection. Black can be worn perfectly for any occasion.
For the upcoming Fall/Winter season, designers are adding the blackest black to their collections. Some of them are even dedicating a whole collection to black. They are essentially blackening their runway shows.
Dior painted the models’ lips black.
Zuhair Murad used black lace and velvet in abundance. At
Givenchy black was the main color for the fall runway show.
Alexander McQueen used black oversized coats with embellishments for a pretty contrast.
A practical Fall/Winter trend would be to combine black with different shades of grey, like Marc Jacobs did. He also used black smudged eyes on the models as a signature makeup look. Other designers like Anthony Vaccarello, Nicholas K., Rodarte and Vera Wang have also used black as one of their main colors.
Wearing other colors along with black create a standout color-blocking look. Black and yellow, black and bright blue, and black and neon are just some examples. Black helps make other colors more vibrant. By helping them stand out, black delivers the perfect statement look.
Another trendy color combination for Fall/Winter 2017 is khaki and black. Together they create an effortless, versatile and chic look. An oversized knit in khaki with a pair of black jeans and black leather jacket has never looked more sophisticated.
Black patent leather, like Trinity from the Matrix, is adding a futuristic look to the color. Sexy, dynamic and modern.
Having just spoken about black in clothing, there is no holding back when it comes to bags. It is said that the way you choose your handbag speaks about your personality.
Black is the best choice for a sophisticated, classic, and chic woman. Choose from an evening clutch as a statement piece or a cross body bag as an every day piece. The Chanel 2.55 in black is a timeless beauty. A black bag works with every other look. There simply aren't any combination limits with this classic black accessory.
New additions will be seen as backpacks, bucket bags, micro bags and bon voyage bags. Of course, all in black.
