Ombre isn’t over, yet. Seen on hair, lips, nails and clothing, this gradient color trend is set to make 2014 another year to extend its reign in fashion.
For fashion-conscious men who desire a sophisticated spin on the usually laid back ombre trend, you’ll have the sleek ombre suits to go cray-cray about this year.
Thanks to Jonathan Saunders’ keen passion for reworking just about any trend into clever stylish pieces, the ombre is given a much dapper interpretation seen in his menswear collection for Spring 2014.
Proof? Check out Tinie Tempah clad in said suit here.
For the ladies who aren’t ready to say adios to the ombre fashion trend, be thrilled to sport the ombre-inspired clothing to your hearts’ delight and still remain ridiculously on trend as fashion designers too aren’t quite over and done with it just yet.
Fendi Spring 2014 collection brought an evolution to the ombre trend through an eclectic mix of color-blocking, sheer overlays and transparent plastics during Milan fashion week late last year.
High fashion aside, there are numerous ways to make the ombre style work its magic into just about any outfit.
The simple trick is to allow the ombre effect of a dress, for instance, to be where attention falls on (besides the wearer, of course). This is done simply by reducing or limiting the need to clash prints or other visually-busy separates or accessories into the mix. Pretty easy, right?
