1. Lightweight and breezy materials  
The easiest way to wear black on a warm summer day: choose lightweight and breezy materials. A black linen, cotton, silk or chiffon style feels more comfortable with warm weather than black denim for instance, and also looks chic.

2. Show some skin  

Covering your entire body in black can look slightly heavy on warm Summer days. Wearing black while showing some skin for a breezier appearance, is the way to go! Think bare legs, crop tops or shorts - find the right balance between garment(s) and skin. We love a long sleeve mini-dress or a sleeveless maxi-dress. Or combine a strapless top with high-rise shorts or jeans.

3. Color combinations  
Combine black with a pop of color, with bright hues, or team up with neutrals for a chicer combination. We love daring color-block looks, but love matchy-matchy looks just as much if you’re looking for a more modest approach.

4. Play with prints   
Wearing black looks less heavy when you choose printed garments that have a black base. Whether you go for a cool graphic print or choose feminine florals, the print automatically softens up your look, no matter what colors the print consists of.
