How to wear black in summer too

We are always talking about it here on Vestiti-Firmati and, going against the grain, I always suggest it to you too: I am talking about black and outfits in black which remain an evergreen choice even when the seasonal trends clearly offer something else.

In this article, I will explain how to wear black even during the warmer seasons.

How to wear black: all the tips

Spring and especially summer encourage us to wear light and bright colours; after all, everyone knows that “black attracts the sun”. However, I fully understand that among this blog’s readers there are many black purists and, although it is truly a shame to give up the beautiful colours suggested by the trends, it will be a relief to know that you can wear black even during the hottest season of the year, with a few precautions though.

Despite everything, we cannot deny that a total black outfit is absolutely intriguing and elegant, so all it takes is a few precautions to adapt this non-colour to the summer season.

If you really cannot give up black, the advice is always to pair a black garment with a colourful one. In this case, both a lively and vibrant colour and a soft pastel shade will work. If the occasion allows you to wear a total black look, accessories come to your aid: super-colourful ones to make it more playful.

How to pair black in summer

The inspiration for the shades comes directly from the runway; however, you can pair black with any summer colour. In this regard, I am thinking of yellow, orange, green, blue and pink in all its shades.
If the thought of all this colour makes your skin crawl, remember that accessories are there, and may they always be praised. You can therefore choose a colourful bag and shoes for your outfit, or a statement necklace in summer shades.

There is good news for those who are dark inside. This year’s trends have brought metallic colours to the forefront, so it will not be difficult to pair your black garments with colours such as beige, white and grey with a metallic finish. In this case, light will take centre stage and the dark effect in the full summer sunlight will be avoided.

Another solution is to pair black garments with denim, the light kind. You could therefore consider black trousers with a denim shirt.

It may seem strange, but say yes to black even at the beach. A black swimsuit is an evergreen, perfect for every age and every silhouette; here, one rule applies: have fun with the details: a one-piece swimsuit, a bikini with lace, or another one-shoulder one-piece.

In short, long live black in summer too!
