This Top List captures the finest of two-toned innovations and showcases unique ways to bring flair and vibrancy to a wide variety of things.
In fashion and design, there are a variety of innovative ways to create flair, and the two-tone style is among the simplest, while being very effective. Two-toned styles have infiltrated military coats, upcycled purses, leather halter dresses, shiny spandex pants, lipsticks, hairstyles and could be used for anything imaginable to add a quick burst of extra creativity. The two-tone style is embraced by Alexis Mabille, Burberry, MACKDADDY, Marni, Emanuel Ungaro and much more big names who have created innovations like two-tone reversible capes. Gareth Pugh has even gone so far as to use origami two-toned paper eyelashes with black on one side and white on the other.
Clearly it doesn’t matter what the two-toned style is used for; its diverse nature can make anything cool, fun and unique.
