Stepping out head-to-toe in one color is the fashion trend that is here to stay. It's easy to see why - versatile, impactful, and effortlessly chic, a monochromatic outfit is guaranteed to make you feel confident, powerful, and sophisticated. To achieve the look, try something as simple as a two-piece co-ord set or, for those wanting to dive head-first into color, all-matching everything (outfit, make-up, accessories, and shoes).

How to bring texture to your outfit

Valentino laid the sartorial foundations last year, with all-hot-pink ensembles gracing the likes of Zendaya, Natalie Portman, and Selena Gomez. This year's update to the monochromatic trend leaves behind Barbiecore pink and embraces a wider array of hues: crisp white, fail-safe black, soft pastel shades, and ravishing red - this season's color. With a more accessible palette, the one-color look can carry any outfit for any occasion and never fails to make a bold statement.

Time for Colored Hosiery to Shine

It's official - according to Vogue, matching your hosiery to your outfit is the key to elevating the monochromatic trend. Fashionistas are shunning bare legs in favor of colored stockings and tights that both harmonize and amplify single-color looks. Hosiery is taking center stage, and celebrities are joining the movement. Let us break down a few of our favorite monochromatic looks from the stars.

Always at the forefront of haute couture, Kendall Jenner wore a matching Bottega Veneta look for a night out in West Hollywood. Taken straight from the Spring/Summer 2023 runway show, her burgundy red dress coordinated seamlessly with her opaque tights and beautifully lacquered nails of the same shade. Get the look with CLAUDIA Matte Thigh Highs in Scarlet Red.

Opting for a bright, playful twist on the one-color trend, Anne Hathaway stunned in an all-purple outfit at a glamorous Bulgari event in Tokyo. Anne matched her vivid purple tights not only to her mini-dress but also to her sky-high platform shoes. All three elements combined like magic to create the illusion of enviably long legs. Steal Anne's style with TOSCA stockings in violet.

On a recent trip to Ibiza, Dua Lipa showed that pattern has its place in monochrome attire. Dressed entirely from the Burberry Fall 2023 collection, she dazzled in sumptuous cherry-red tights with the signature Burberry check, a complementary turtle neck sweater, and a skirt. Inject pattern stockings into your wardrobe.

Anya opted for semi-sheer scarlet tights to complement her Magda Butrym lace mini-dress, long patent trench coat, and velvet heels. Turn heads like Anya in GIOIA Semi-Sheer Thigh Highs.

If the idea of colored hosiery is a little daunting, sheer black stockings offer a subtle nod to the trend in a classic, understated way. Think Princess Diana in her iconic off-the-shoulder black cocktail dress and accompanying sheer black tights and stilettos. Emulate Diana's timeless style with ISABELLA Sheer Thigh Highs.

Sofia Vergara

Sofia Vergara recently perfected not one, but two tights-centric trends, with an elevated casual look. Dressed head-to-toe in black, Sofia dared to bare and wore tights as outerwear, no pants required. With nothing more than an oversized sweater, tights, and thigh-high boots, she proved that less is most definitely more. Try two trends in one with ANTONELLA Opaque Tights.
