When we think of summer styling, bold colours and tropical prints are the usual suspects that spring to mind. But if your style persona reads less is more or you simply want to pare it back on your next getaway, put your fashion focus on black and white. Classically cool, the trend is making its move on our suitcase selection in fresh new shapes, fabrics and accessories – here’s how to wear monochrome on the beach…
Beach Daze
The easiest way to get into monochrome styling on your next holiday? It’s all in your beachside essentials. From the classic black swimsuit to the white lace cover-up, these sun-kissed styles are simple yet impactful – accessorise with our striped crochet tote for a nod to the nautical.
Cover Up
How to make a black swimsuit feel instantly more summery – regardless of what the weather has in store? Add an all-white cover-up. Made for pool parties and long, languid days spent on the beach, this sheer lace kimono lends a little extra glamour to the classic one-piece. Give yours the seal of SS19 approval with a belt bag and monochrome accessories.
Natural Order
From straw to wood, natural textures are the perfect way to complement monochrome colour palettes this summer. Whether on the beach, off on a city break or navigating rising temperatures on home ground, break up the black and white with bags in earthy neutrals – think circular straw totes and slatted wood styles for a fashion moment that’s worthy of an Instagram.
