While most couples don't want to be that couple, the one that is so matchy matchy they might as well stick solely to vomit-hues, the How to Spend It 'Top-to-tone' editorial sets an example of how it can be done without having passersby upchucking around them. Although they sport monochromatic outfits of lilac, fuchsia and yellow, the tones in each outfit give them depth and personality while maintaining a highly stylish aesthetic.
The How to Spend It 'Top-to-tone' editorial is a success thanks to stylist Mitchell Belk. He pulled pieces from the likes of Burberry Prorsum and Michael Kors. Lensed by David Roemer of Atelier Management, the photoshoot stars models Vasilisa Pavlova and Owen Steuart. Walter Obal and Keith Carpenter were on beauty duty.
