How To Pull Off A Monochrome Outfit Effortlessly

Go the distance with monochrome dressing that plays off textures, print and shine for the most polished head-to-toe look ever.

How To Pull Off A Stylish Monochrome Outfit

Photos: Vee Chin

When it comes to getting ready, it’s easy to fall back on safe options: A white shirt with blue jeans, or a camel-coloured blazer with black slacks. But that’s just plain boring. 

If you’re ready to dive off the fashion deep end, why not try pulling off dressing head-to-toe in the same hue? Whether in bold red or a subdued blue, a monochrome outfit takes the guesswork out of getting dressed. Just grab a top and bottom of the same or similar colour, and you’re basically done. Remember, you don’t have to have the individual pieces in the exact same shade. To flex your sartorial muscles further, you can even experiment with looks that play with prints and textures in the same hue.

Model: Ke Qing/Mannequin
Makeup and hair: Manisa Tan using Shu Uemura and Keune
Stylist’s assistant: Nadia Lim
