Style Guide: 25 Gorgeous ways to flaunt dark denim pieces in your outfits
Forget pale and white washed denim. We’re bringing back the grunge.
How to wear dark denim pieces with ease
Pair with contrasting pieces - So you’re wearing a pair of denim skinny jeans dyed black or a deep navy blue. What do you wear them with? For contrast, pick bright tops in white for a monochrome look that will catch attention. Other light colours like yellow and soft pinks will also work a treat.
A pop of colour will turn heads - Whether it be your bag, shoes, or jewellery, try to incorporate some colour into an otherwise dark outfit with small pieces that are vibrant. For example, pick a pair of silver shoes, or some yellow-tinted glasses, or even a bright red handbag, just to add a dash of colour.
Less is better - Don’t forget that the minimalist trend is still in full force, so try not to pile on multiple denim pieces in one outfit if you can help it. Just because we’re rooting for dark denim doesn’t mean you have to deck yourself in a three-piece denim ensemble!
Take note of textures - Denim has a texture all on its own, so if you plan on pairing other materials with your denim pieces, make sure they match the denim! For example, leather and denim or faux fur and denim… you might not want to mix and match too many textures at once!
