CUTWORK:
Cutwork is a vintage technique that derives from the primitive art of netting. It is a type of embroidery in which pieces of the foundation fabric are cut away, creating a network of holes and eyelets that are accentuated by the embroidery pattern. Apart from traditional hand cutwork, laser cutwork is popular these days. Cutout, in fashion terminology, means strategically cutting out fabric from an outfit for a sexy effect. Tailor or shop for white pieces with cutwork or cut-outs for an edgy white-on-white look.
TEXTURES, LAYERS:
Use white fabric in contrasting textures — like a rough jute skirt with a soft silk blouse — to cut the starkness of pure white. Layering is one of the best ways to avoid looking monotonous; just make sure you don’t combine more than four layers in one look. Dos & don’ts: Switch to white liner or shadow on your eyes; white is hot in the make-up scene and makes your eyes look bigger. Invest in a crisp white shirt. It’s a versatile item of clothing and an essential for any season. Create a balance in a colourful ensemble by wearing only white accessories. Don’t hesitate to embrace white because it might make you look wider.
