3 rules for styling a black hoodie

1. Balance the volume. If the hoodie is wide, the trousers can be straight or relaxed; if it's more fitted, wide-leg trousers will balance it out.
2. Play with a single focal point of color. Black with white or blue always works; add a third color only through sneakers or accessories.
3. Pay attention to the base layer. A white t-shirt peeking out from under the hoodie adds depth to the look.

Which sneakers to wear with a black hoodie

• White: clean contrast, works with everything.
• Black: monochromatic and more serious look.
• Neutral colors (grey, beige): soften the ensemble.

Mistakes to avoid

• Trousers that are too tight with a very oversized hoodie.
• Mixing too many colors at once.
• Choosing the wrong size. Check the oversized size guide.
• Washing at high temperatures and fading the black. Read how to care for your streetwear.
