Being a very easy trend to carry off, the Monochrome look can be seen in tops, dress and even saree.
Designer Mary Smriti Kujur says, “If one has to style a look for this season then I would suggest a monochrome dress with a white jacket and black heel with a contrast neck piece that has elements of white black and blue with a blue clutch.” The city based designer is of the opinion that accessories are a best way to balance out the overall look. Babita Jaishankar says, “The overall look can be accessorised with a bold neckpiece, belt and a bag for greater definition. And for ethnic look, a embroidered bag or a mirror work bag will go really well.”
Like any other style the monochrome trend has few pros and cons. “One should keep in mind the personality of the individual. While sporting this trend one should know how balance the look. Small details need to be kept in mind,” explains Deepta.
