White tee, wide black denim shorts and an open check shirt

The monochrome checked shirt provides a graphic frame, while a plain white tee keeps the pattern from occupying the whole torso. Broad black denim shorts balance the open upper volume, and dark footwear stays quiet at the ground. This is genuinely a black-and-white combination; an extra colored accessory would change its restrained graphic direction rather than simply finish it. Use white boxy t-shirt to give the upper body width without hiding the trouser rise beneath an excessively long hem. Use wide black denim shorts to provide the broad dark lower shape that supports an open shirt and compact tee. Use black low-top skate-style shoes to support loose denim or a wide short opening while keeping the ankle line relatively low. Use black and white checked shirt worn open to provide the single checked frame around a plain center rather than adding several competing patterns.
