Three techniques practiced by men with cool black coordinates.

Black coordinates can be expected to give an urban impression and slim down the body shape. However, if the wrong combination of items is used, the look can be flat and lacking in contrast, which can lead to people around you thinking you look tacky. In this issue, we pick up three techniques we discovered from snaps of fashionable people who are good at coordinating in black, which is considered trendy and cool by those around them!

Black Cordage Technique (1) “Mix and match textured items for a rich expression!

Black is said to be the least assertive color. If you create a coordinated look using only items made of similar materials, it tends to look drab. By combining shiny leather and shiny synthetic fabrics to create an expressive coordination, you can easily create a three-dimensional look and a cool outfit. For spring and summer coordination, a cotton vest with a marbled look, as shown in the outfit below, is also a good choice.

Black Coordinate (2) “Create an urban silhouette with a slimming effect!

One of the most attractive features of black is that it gives a sharp and tight silhouette. Coordinating with a true-to-size outfit creates a modern and sophisticated styling. With the Y2K trend of wearing T-shirts in a true-to-size fit, the oversized look that has continued for several years is now showing signs of slowing down, so why not consider wearing T-shirts in this style? For pants, choose a silhouette with a bit of room around the waist to avoid a tight look.

Black Coordinate Technique (3): “Subtly create a sense of comfort without being too heavy!

Black, the darkest tone, tends to make coordination look heavy. Stylish people who practice cool black coordination make their outfits look light by creating a sense of slackness in many places. There are various ways to create a sense of slackness, such as using white items in small areas or using short-length pants to show off the ankles. If you feel that black coordinates look too heavy, please consider creating a sense of slackness. In the following coordinate, a silver necklace and sneakers with silver parts on the toes are chosen to create a modern look with a sense of escapism.
