Zooey Deschanel didn’t just wear red at Paris Fashion Week; she also embraced retro trends, adding her playful touch to the event.

The New Girl actress made a bold statement, effortlessly mastering the monochromatic trend in a stunning red ensemble by luxury French brand Patou.

Though the vibrant hues felt modern, Zooey’s look had a chic vintage twist. The Mary Jane platforms paired with matching tights captured the spirit of the ’60s, showing how to rock one of this year’s comfiest shoe trends with personality and flair.

Monochrome outfits make a bold statement, but they can be tricky to pull off. However, when done right, they always stand out.

One trick to pulling off monochrome outfits, as Zooey shows here, is mixing fabrics and textures for added depth and interest.

With minimal color variation, layering different textiles and fabrics helps prevent a monochrome outfit from overwhelming the frame.

Zooey expertly balanced her look by pairing a heavy tweed mini dress with opaque tights. The leather and gloss of the Mary Janes break up the red, while the chunky platform adds the illusion of longer legs.
