Every boutique is awash in color from the brightest of brights to the palest of pastels, color was the biggest story for spring and summer. But if you are a little afraid to make a color commitment, never fear –black and white is here.

The ever chic combo showed up on the runways of Chanel, Oscar de la Renta, and Jason Wu.  The stark combination of these two neutral colors creates a stunning look that is elegant  and edgy and endlessly current.
