Monochrome Monday: Xenon Blue
Xenon Blue is the colour of cool confidence—part sci-fi, part summer memory. From chrome nails to pool tiles, it's sharp, sleek, and undeniably magnetic. This Monday, it gets its moment.
Blue has always been a shapeshifter, sometimes icy and distant, other times calm and contemplative. But Xenon Blue feels like something else entirely. It's cooler than the sky, sharper than denim. It's the colour of novelty, of clean slates and unfamiliar cities just before sunrise.
This week's blue leans futuristic. Think glass towers reflecting cloudless skies, or the shimmer on a freshly done chrome manicure. It's precise, poised, and ever so slightly aloof, like a friend who's always put together but still somehow impossible to read.
It's the blue of tech dreams and vintage sports cars, of pool tiles you only ever saw on holiday. The kind of blue that says 'don't touch' and 'don't look away' at the same time.
This Monochrome Monday, Xenon Blue gets her moment…: Elie Saab | Silk Long Dress
Cut in lustrous silk and dyed a saturated bluel, this gown draws from Elie Saab's couture vocabulary—floor-grazing, form-following, and photogenic from every angle. Flabelus | Aurora
Handmade in Spain with recycled velvet and jute soles, the Aurora blends slipper-like comfort with ballroom-adjacent structure. A practical flat with aristocratic references. Dolce & Gabbana | Light Blue for Him & Her
Built around Sicilian lemon and cedarwood, this fragrance duo offers crisp top notes and a clean drydown. A direct, linear scent profile with mass appeal. Oceanus | Crescent Shell Bell Sleeve Dress
Fully beaded and cut with flared sleeves, this Oceanus piece merges shell motifs with red-carpet engineering. Made for movement, not subtlety. Eterna | Capri Set Majolica
Digitally printed with Majolica-inspired tilework, the fabric blend offers airflow without compromising on structure. Clean tailoring underlines the pattern-heavy surface. Nashwa Jewelry | The Lucid Collection
Lucid features oversized quartz and citrine set in open bezels—translucent, not ornamental. The settings are sculptural, anchored in weight and polish. Mesh Mesh | Alhambra Bag In Bahari Blue
Woven in PVC, this top handle bag takes cues from Spanish architecture. Bahari Blue references both the material and the coast it nods to. Sara El Emary | The Perfect Denim Collection
Stitched in Cairo with contrast topstitching and selvedge-weight denim, this collection reworks classic silhouettes through a local production lens. Tailoring over trend.
