A monochrome outfit is a full dress combination (usually including headwear, purse, footwears, and other accessories) that uses only variations of a single color, usually differing only in lightness and darkness.[1][2][3][4][5]

The term may also mean a dress combination that uses only the colors black and white, for example as favored by fashion designer Coco Chanel.[6]
