8 Cool Ways To Wear Head-To-Toe Black Without Looking Dull

As someone who loved to watch hollywood movies back in my teenage years, I used to think head-to-toe black outfit was only suitable for occasion like funeral service. And Reminiscing on the memorial of pop star, Michael Jackson, where head-to-black outfits overshadowed the Staples Center in Los Angeles, it was more like black was synonymous with the dead. Here in Africa, Nigeria precisely, black was one of those rare colors you’d ever see a woman wear.

But thanks to the birth of social media and fashionistas, style mavens who reinvented the shades of black in fashion-forward twist. Head-to-toe black is no longer funeral-bound or a dampener that can put on the mood, but a go-to combo when you have nothing to wear as well as when in doubt. That reminds me of Coco Chanel that once said, “Women think of all colors except the absence of color. I have said that black has it all.”

Without going further, and not surprisingly, at Fashion Police Nigeria, we feel the same like the style icon Coco Chanel. So we’ve rounded up 8 ways to help you nail the head-to-toe black outfit combo:

#1. Wear with fedora

Smart, chic and eye-catchy, fedora is the effortless cool addition to your all black repertoire.

#2. A statement-making blouse is the showstopper.

Statement-making top, like bell sleeve will add a luxe edge to your head-to-toe black. We’re quite obsessed with Stella’s all-black combo.

#3. Show the right amount of skin

Whether you’re lounging with friends or exploring a new mall, showing just the right amount of skin will give your head-to-black a life.

#4. Let your shoes do the talking

Marilyn Monroe once said, “Give a girl the right shoes and she can conquer the world.” Wearing an eye-popping shoes is a great update to an all-black outfit.

#5. clingy top + dramatic pant + chic heels

By wearing a clingy top like turtleneck, wide-leg pant and court heels, head-to-toe black becomes a sure-fire 9-to-5 alternative.

 

#6. Let your legs take the spotlight

Whether it’s the little black dress (LBD)  with heels or ankle length gown with thigh-high slit, this will forever be our go-to look for a romantic evening or when we have nothing to wear.

 

#7. Wear with nude shoes

Adding a pair of nude shoe to your all-black outfit is a complement to your complexion, and it will make any occasion special.

#8. Add a swipe of color

No matter where the color is popping from — whether shoes, lipstick, or bag, it will bring the dark shade to life with energy, adding fun and playful vibes.
