Not all black clothes are created equally — different black fabrics will have different textures that can affect the way they look and feel on you. Knowing these variations will allow you to experiment and create the ideal black outfit. See below for just a few fabrics commonly worn in black:   Cotton: Breathable and comfortable. Flat appearance. A good general fabric choice when it comes to black clothing. Unlike other shades, black cotton doesn't darken when wet.  Polyester: Less breathable, but resistant to wrinkling. Soft and smooth. Good for black casual wear.   Silk: Smooth, shiny, sleek. In black, it looks luxurious, even decadent. Generally best for men to limit themselves to one silk item per outfit — women can sometimes get away with more.  Leather: Strong and tough. Can be flat or shiny depending on the finish. In black, it can give a tough "biker" look or a sleek, "clean" one, depending on the fit and the smoothness of the leather. Understanding the idea of contrast is important when putting together a black outfit. When you're wearing mostly black, anything that isn't black will stick out visually and will naturally attract the eye. For this reason, it's a good idea to wear colored clothing and accessories near features that you want to show off — other people's eyes will spend a lot of time looking here. Keep in mind also that, depending on your skin tone, exposed skin may also create this contrast. Use this to your advantage by making areas of contrast next to skin you want people to look at. For example, if you want people to look at your beautiful face, a black turtleneck that ends sharply below your jawline is a great idea. A completely uniform black outfit can be quite striking, but it's not your only option. Try using fabrics with patterns that incorporate black to add contrast and variation to your look. The black used in the pattern will automatically go with whatever other black clothes you're wearing, allowing you to maintain the black "theme" of your outfit without committing to a single color. There are many different patterns that will work here. Polka dots, floral designs, plaid, pinstripes and more are all available in styles that incorporate the color black, giving you many different fashion choices. Another way to add visual contrast to a black outfit is to play with its texture. This is a little more difficult than simply wearing different types of clothes, but it gives you a great opportunity to express your creativity. There are two ways to do this:   Use materials with different visual qualities. For example, wearing a suit made entirely out of shiny black silk can be a little overwhelming, but wearing a black silk shirt inside a flat black cotton blazer will create an interesting contrast and call attention to the center of your torso.  Use folds, seams, creases, ruffles, etc. For example, a sheer black can look amazing on its own, but if you want to spice it up, adding horizontal folds to the back can give a completely new  look.
Be aware of the different black fabrics available. Be aware that the eyes will drift toward color on black outfits. Use patterned black prints for visual variety. Be willing to experiment with texture.
