Perfect for spring, ombre and tie-die are bold, colorful looks that really stand out. The dip-dye technique of ombre gives a subtle variation of color, while tie-dye melds together a variety of colors into a unique pattern. Though technically not of the ombre technique, these two tops are definitely inspired by the trend.
The “Desert Stripe Top” from G Wheels combines greens, purples, and oranges into an eye-catching pattern. With simple jeans or black pants, this top is versatile enough to dress up or down. Worn as a drape-neck top, it is a beautiful evening look, sure to stand out among basic blacks and neutrals. Worn off-the-shoulder, it is more casual, perfect for a lunchtime date with a girlfriend or an afternoon of shopping.
The floral tunic from Libertalia is more subtle, with a band of color coming down the front on the right and ombre-look monochromatic sleeves. Looking closely, the sleeves are graduated from gray to white to black, as though dip-dyed twice. This shirt is edgy and rock-inspired, thanks to the uneven hem, contrast stitching, and metallic studs. Worn over a pair of dark jeans and black heels, it is perfect for a casual date-night look.
