20 All-Black Work Outfits to Copy Now
Let's face it: About 90% of our wardrobe is made up of colourless pieces, so why try to suddenly change it up when getting dressed for work? An all-black outfit can be especially powerful—as a sartorial statement and even as a political one. So give in, and get inspired with today's roundup of all-black work outfits that'll make you the most stylish person in the office.
Layer a roll-neck knit under a midi dress for a chic office-appropriate look.
When in doubt, pair a sleek sweater with a full skirt.
Try teaming a super-cool trouser suit with ankle boots.
Contrast an oversize coat and baggy trousers with a delicate top.
Make your vinyl coat the star of your outfit by wearing it closed and adding trousers and flats.
A roll-neck and midi skirt are like a blank canvas for all your favourite accessories.
Add a colourful surprise to your matching set by opting for bright tights or socks.
Pair your reinvented classics for a forward look.
Don't be afraid to add standout accessories to your look.
Layer a slip dress over a sweater. Bonus points if you also wear a socks-and-heels combo like this.
A pop of white always looks sleek and polished.
For a chic yet comfortable combo, wear a sweater with a front-slit midi skirt and slouchy boots.
If your dress code allows, contrast a traditional suit with fashion sneakers.
Add a belt to your sweater-and-skirt combo to pull it all together.
When done right, jumpsuits can totally work for the office.

Since starting as an intern back in 2013, Nicole Akhtarzad Eshaghpour has held several roles here at Who What Wear, and she is currently Editor-at-Large. It was a less expected route, seeing as she was graduating from business school at USC when this all began, but it has turned out to be the best one for her. Fast-forward to 2020, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was an intern starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to classic pieces and neutral basics but will always make an exception for something colorful, printed, or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a good party is dressing up for one. On weekdays, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious for dinner and trying to force her husband to watch 90 Day Fiancé.
