Trend spotting: Mastering the monochrome
Here is a lowdown of how the fashionistas effortlessly pulled off their one-shade ensembles
Being dressed in one colour from head-to-toe is really not as easy as it seems. While it is not just about matching a dress to a shoe, three Hollywood A-listers, Kate Hudson, Kendall Jenner and Bella Hadid, have trumped the sartorial know-how of mastering monochromatism.
Wearing layers upon layers of the same colour, with modern silhouettes stacked together, the end result is a chic line-up of colour-coordinated looks that never once seem to fall flat. Compiled from InStyle, here is a lowdown of how the fashionistas effortlessly pulled off their one-shade ensembles.
Kate Hudson
The 37-year-old style icon mastered the trend in a head-to-toe blush outfit by Cushnie et Ochs, for the unveiling of the renovated Tiffany & Co. boutique in LA. Donning silky millennial pink wide-leg pants, and a plunging wrap top, Hudson draped a salmon pink coat over her shoulders. Looking graceful as ever, she accessorised her look in Tiffany & Co. jewels and a pearlescent Edie Parker clutch.
Kendall Jenner
Trying to piece together optic whites for a complete “winter white” look is something that’s hard to achieve. The easiest way is to look for off-whites such as cream, ecru, and ivory, in varying textures. Jenner perfected the aesthetic with her woolen cream crop top paired with a knee-length coat. Wearing a two-layered ivory skirt and taupe sneaks, Hollywood’s latest style crush looked on point.
Bella Hadid
The up-and-coming model sizzled in an all-black ensemble at an event to promote awareness of the Lyme disease. Hadid sported a figure-hugging black lace strapless top with black lace high-waist pants. She completed her look with a draped blazer, diamond hoops, choker, and black pumps.
