Monochrome Monday: The Wispy Clouds Edition

White is never just white. In fashion, it’s less a colour, more a code - purity, rebellion, control, collapse. From ancient Egyptian linen to space-age mod uniforms, white has always meant more than it says.

Elizabeth I wore it like a warning - lead-white skin as status, as armour. Marie Antoinette made it scandalous: sheer chemise, no corset, too soft, too free. Chanel cleaned it up, made it cold and chic. Then the ‘60s hit, and white got weird - plastic, shiny, utopian. Less bridal, more broadcast-from-the-future.

Now? It’s back with all that baggage. Wispy Clouds doesn’t whisper, it lingers - across sharp tailoring, undone lace, and barely-there knits that look like they might float off the body. It’s clean but not innocent. Soft but not safe.
