Black Clothes Matter

Choosing what colour to wear can be a dilemma – you will want to make sure it suits you and goes with the rest of your outfit. If in doubt, my rule of thumb is that you can’t go wrong with black.

Black suits all ages, matches all other colours and is suitable for all occasions. When I wear black it makes me feel elegant and sophisticated and gives me an air of confidence. I therefore get drawn to the colour black when dressing formally for a business meeting or a job interview.

Not only does black make you look elegant, it can also help to hide flaws and create a slimming illusion – it has the opposite effect to some lighter colours (like white and khaki) which can actually give the impression of adding a few pounds.

Black is classic and iconic, and very popular in the fashion industry. Many great people wear it for all sorts of different reasons from its simplicity or just because it’s different to the norm.
