The people in this week’s roundup know how to use black as the perfect backdrop for splashes of colour. These basic pieces — in the form of leggings, pants, a simple top, or the perennial favourite, the black leather jacket — served as complements for a stark colour contrast. For instance, an ethereal, cobalt pleated skirt; a flash of neon yellow; a bejewelled bib necklace; or a feminine, purple floral motif. It’s no wonder that black forms the basis of so many wardrobes.
