Simple Classic Black

Black has always been a difficult color to wear, and it’s hard to avoid looking like a walking inkblot.

Two designers have come up with stylish solutions in their textures.

Takuya Jinn, of Gabriel has this “High Neck Sweater” in a ribbed black on black pattern, which comes in a sleeveless style shown here, full length sleeves or a mini top. The necklace and roll-neck collar come as a single attachment and you also have the option of wearing just the roll-neck collar without the necklace.

The new release pencil skirt from Coco, has a subtle black and grey broad stripe, matching belt and fine button and seam details on the waistline.

Another Black with Black

The extra wide sleeve details in this shirt from Baiastice are stunning and perfect for creating a whole series of mix and match outfits. If you think the sleeves may be a little too wide for your shape, there’s a second smaller sleeve version provided with the outfit.
