Let’s be honest: Is there anything chicer than an all-white outfit? Politicians, celebrities, and street style stars alike embrace head-to-toe white ensembles for their elegance, sophistication, and power. The key to pulling off the look? Play with all shades of non-color neutrals—creamy beige, ivory, oyster, and ecru—to achieve a perfectly imperfect blend. It’s not about trying to match the same shade of pristine white (unless you’re rocking next season’s all-white suiting).
The second important factor is to mix and match textures and fabrics (think knits, cashmere, and suede) to add interest to the color code. Finish the look with sculptural accessories like a bold belt or a tan bag to keep the look infinitely more modern.
And who better to give us a lesson in pared-back yet powerful dressing than Net-a-Porter? The retailer’s achromatic new arrivals have us hankering to experiment with 50 shades of white. (Just be careful with that black coffee.) Scroll below to see our picks of the pieces we’re adding to our closets that we’ll be wearing this season and beyond.
