Black and white- it’s a simple rule, the monochrome rule. Designers have so much to offer- cable-knit dress, sleek-cut maxi dress, cotton blouse tucked in high-waist brief, Western style ruffled shirt with pants. Be inspired by the runways of Christian Dior, The Row and Ralph Lauren, and play with all the styles on offer.
Here’s fall/winter runway’s monochrome rule:
