Monochrome, but with a twist, is probably what a millennial would say.
Contrary to popular belief, monochrome looks are not just limited to black, white, and grey, even though these colours do form a major part of the trend. So, take notes from Anushka Sharma who geared up in an all-white outfit or Diana Penty who showed us how to rock athleisure-inspired separates in H2T black. And if athleisure, however, isn’t your cup of tea, go for a power suit minus the hassles, à la Athiya Shetty.
1. All White Everything

2. Opting For Athleisure

Equal parts chic and comfy, Diana Penty’s look is easy to adapt.
3. Power Suit Separates

A blazer and a pair of trousers don’t have to be paired with a shirt every time, and Athiya Shetty just showed us that.
While these 3 colours are easy choices, there’s nothing stopping you from going all out with pretty pastels or plush hues. Case in point: Kangana Ranaut’s pantsuit, rounded off with heels and her trademark curls, Priyanka Chopra’s outfit for the royal wedding, and Kareena Kapoor Khan’s dark pink monochrome pick with a cinched blazer.
4. Pretty In Pastels

More than anything, we would like to borrow Kangana’s look for the year to come. It’s sleek, stylish, on-point, and striking too. What more could you wish for in an outfit?
5. Think Pink

Not for the faint-hearted, Kareena’s upgraded pant suit look comes with a belt and a lace bralette. Dare if you may.
6. A Royal Affair

If PeeCee can flaunt a classy look in pastel mauve at the royal wedding, so can you. Well, not at the royal wedding, obviously, but bookmark this look for the next fancy do.
Just FYI, earthy tones are not boring. Yes, you can now wear them and look your gorgeous best. If there is still a doubt, look at Deepika’s layered look and Kalki’s fuss-free way of wearing monochrome fashion in earthy tones. You are welcome.
7. Make It Beige

A sheath dress layered with a long jacket in the same colour is something you could incorporate into your winter wardrobe. Add more layers if you wish and cinch it at the waist, celeb style.
8. Bold And Distinct

Up your fashion game with a look like Kalki’s- bold, new, and the perfect OOTD for work.
If these are looks you have already given valuable closet space to, go for the blues, literally. (Not the Monday blues, silly!) Like Alia Bhatt, pick outfits that range from dark blue to navy, highlighted with textures. If too much of it is not what you desire, go the monochrome route in a grey outfit (hello, Sonam!) with a very teeny-tiny hint of another colour in it.
9. Not The Regular Blues

Alia Bhatt’s visually textured blue look gives us an important lesson in fashion: keep it subtle to make it striking.
10. The Grey Way

Nothing better than an oversized grey outfit to leave a mark, and Sonam’s outfit is proof.
Now that you have reached the end, are you ready to make monochrome work with these celeb-approved looks?
