How to find your own style in clothing?

Finding yours is not easy. Especially if you want to radically change your image. Working on yourself, you want to change your life for the better, meet a decent guy and hear compliments every day.


In the fashion industry we very often come across the concept "style", "style icon", and in everyday life we ​​often hear the following phrase: “have your own style.” When choosing clothes, we, first of all, focus on those things that we like, are offered in fashion magazines, are popular among friends, or those that we can generally find in the retail chain. Let's talk today about what the concept of style itself is, as well as what is actually necessary in order to have it.


Style, in translation, is a certain set of characteristics that characterize an individual manner of self-expression in any area. Style can be musical, artistic, architectural, but today we are talking about clothing style, which means a certain set of features that characterize a particular ensemble (costume).


The second meaning of this interesting word comes from the Greek “stylus” - a bronze rod with a pointed end, used for spelling on wax-coated tablets. The revival of this subject has occurred quite recently, along with the advent of communicator phones.


But let's get back to style. Having found out what this concept itself means, at this stage let’s look at what styles there are in fashionable clothing and how they are characterized. So, first of all, let's denote 3 main styles: classic, romantic and sporty.



Classic in clothes similar to classics in music. These are time-tested, discreet lines and shapes that are always relevant and are the basis for creating various other styles. I think that few women are not familiar with the classic style of clothing, which is also called business, therefore, this concept does not require detailed explanation. Famous fashion designers advise that if you are in doubt about buying a new thing, not knowing which fashion trend to give preference to, buy a classic. In it you will always look confident and impeccable, you can wear it in any situation, and not be afraid to look ridiculous.



- Romantic clothing style- akin to the classics, but less strict, combines simplicity of lines with lightness of shapes and a large abundance of small details.


Similar historical styles could be called and (which means pretentious, fancy, curled, intricate). The romantic style suits almost all women, implying softness, femininity and tenderness, giving each of them charm, charm and spontaneity. Clothes in a romantic style are dresses with frills, ruffles, flounces, frill collars, blouses with lace, loose sleeves, flared trousers, as well as light, flowing fabrics - chiffon, silk, lace, thin cotton, delicate knitwear, guipure and etc.



Sports style of clothing. I think a lot of explanations won’t be needed here either - the sports style is currently one of the most popular and widespread among modern youth. And, in my opinion, in vain. Young girls deprive themselves quite a lot by hiding their feminine forms under the guise of convenience, because I give you my head - any, the most trendy item in a sporty style will not be able to decorate its owner as much as a feminine blouse or dress. Therefore, if you want to make a lasting impression on a man, I wholeheartedly advise you to put your favorite tops and T-shirts away on the shelf and wear something truly feminine. And there is absolutely no need to be afraid - he will appreciate it, you will see. The most feminine ensemble in a sporty style will be a skirt and leggings.


Over time, a huge number of different styles and their varieties have appeared, which are determined primarily by visiting various cultural places of stay, age, gender, lifestyle, and are dictated mainly by the corresponding dress code:



Oxford clothing style. Came to us from England, bears the name of the university of the same name. It implies the severity of lines combined with the density of shapes and a restrained palette of tones; it belongs to the varieties of the classical style. These are the clothes of pupils and students - blouses, tartan skirts, vests, pullovers, suits, coats, made of thick fabric in muted tones, the colors of which are often dominated by tartan.



It speaks for itself, and presupposes a certain dress code that has been formed in a wide system of clubs. Includes features of many other styles - sports, casual, glamorous, evening. Typical clothing - jeans, T-shirt, belt with a large buckle, smart jacket, turtleneck, top, miniskirt, short dress. It features body-hugging silhouettes that are both loose and sexy. It stands out with bright, shiny fabrics that reflect the light of night discos and allow you to stand out from the huge crowd in the most favorable way.
I cannot help but note the sad fact that among our Slavic youth the club style is used excessively often and for other purposes - some girls can easily appear in this form at college, or simply go for a walk, thereby violating all the rules of accepted etiquette, and creating clothes used inappropriately, an image of cheap glamour.



Country style– literally “country”, farm, rural style. Long skirts, loose pullovers, coarse fabrics with large prints, cowboy boots and hats, chunky knitwear. Country style is somewhat similar to romantic, but rougher, with straighter lines and simpler forms. It has its own special personality and suits most women. A long, loose skirt in combination with rough, leather, straight-heeled, wide boots looks especially beautiful in country style.



Street Fashion(city street style). It originated in Tokyo as an alternative to the glossy, star-studded glamor. It is distinguished, as a rule, by mixing several styles, putting together characteristic clothing ensembles that are both comfortable and the most fashionable, allowing you to feel great on the street, and at the same time, stand out from the crowd. This could be a wide sweater combined with skinny jeans, a romantic dress with a warm cardigan and beret thrown over it, a jacket with a long, warm scarf thrown over it, afghani trousers and other clothes. It is very popular in Europe, has a spirit of freedom, carefree and youth, helps to express one’s own confidence and individuality.



Bohemian clothing style, usually belonging to the intelligentsia and creative artists. Often has a brightly individual, in some ways even extravagant character. This style is characterized by accents on certain details - say, a colorful scarf on a gray suit, a knitted beret jauntily pulled to one side, or another individual manifestation of a particular person. Most often found among artists, musicians, artists, people who are not alien to non-standard stage images and creative thinking. Actively used by modern showmen and other people from the field of art.



Ethnic style Borrowed its origin from various nationalities with their characteristic features of national clothing. Loose and comfortable, akin to national costumes, these outfits are usually made in bright colors, with folk patterns and cut features. Ethnic style, as a rule, is very colorful, attractive, and loved by many who use its elements in their clothing: dresses, scarves, shawls, bags, boots, outerwear and much more.



Exotic clothing style Similar to ethnic, differing by and large by some fantasy and the use of natural motifs. Especially popular in exotic style are images of African nature - jungles and savannas, plant prints, leopard print, green, white, and the color of a blazing sunset. Literally everything is done in an exotic style - dresses, bags, blouses and trousers, various accessories, outerwear. Elements of exotic style can be found in almost every girl’s wardrobe, be it a light scarf, glasses, shoes, handbag or wallet.


There are also several more interesting styles, determined by the personal preferences of each person:


1. Glamorous style (luxury and charm)
2. Military (uniform and camouflage)
3. Safari (African hunting with a predominance of beige and khaki)
4. Casual (everyday comfortable)
5. Marine style (with a predominance of stripes in white, red and blue)
6. Extravagant style (exquisitely pretentious, in order to attract attention)
7. Trash style (the main rule is to have no rules)



Trash style


The concept of clothing style can also be determined by the historical era: there are terms such as Greek clothing style, Victorian, 60s style, vintage, etc.
The varieties include other styles that arose under the influence of the fragmentation of various subcultures: informal, hippie, glam rock, punk, grunge, etc.


We have looked at the concept of style, and now let’s talk about what is necessary in order to have it.


Each style implies the desire of a particular person to express himself and show himself in the best light. Therefore, you must decide for yourself what is closer, more pleasant, more convenient and more necessary for you. It's no use pretending to be a cowboy if you're a humble office worker, any more than it's useless to make yourself look glamorous when going to the market to buy groceries. In short, when choosing a style, you should consider 4 things:


Personal preferences


Work, hobbies, habitat - communication


Features of your figure


Fashion trends


In short, you must understand well what exactly suits you, where you can wear it, and what exactly you want to say. At the same time, you should at least have a rough idea of ​​what things will combine well with each other and what will not. The basic laws of fashionable silhouettes, the concept of shapes and generally accepted colors are more important here. Mastering all this is not at all difficult if you understand one simple rule - all silhouettes are divided into top and bottom, based on the overall beauty of lines, harmony of shapes and the most flattering colors. Based on this, it’s easy to understand that two super-voluminous items - a wide sweater and loose trousers, for example, will not look harmonious together. Likewise, two too-tight silhouettes won't look too flattering. You can’t wear colorful trousers with an exotic leopard blouse, and you can’t wear an ethnic-style sweater with a business office skirt. You need to combine styles with each other competently and skillfully, but you shouldn’t be afraid to experiment and discover something new. Over time, having mastered the rules of combination, you yourself will feel what suits you best, and this feeling will help in developing your own individual style.



Who are the style icons?


A style icon in the fashion industry is usually called a person who most successfully conveys in his own image the characteristic features of a particular fashion style, combined with his own individual preferences. Almost anyone can become a style icon, at least temporarily - to do this you just need to have good taste and a good understanding of fashion trends, be honest with yourself, and also have your own, informed opinion.


Fashion... How fickle it is! Last season, square noses were popular, now they are blunt, last summer everyone went crazy for the look total black , and this year hot pink and coral will rule the world. Fashion comes and goes over time. And style is something that remains forever, all women were assured of this by the famous Coco Chanel, whose images do not lose relevance even now. Being fashionable and being stylish are completely different things. Let's figure out why.

Fashion

What does the expression “be fashionable” mean? Keep up with new products and trends, that’s all. And if in the summer the most popular combination is fuchsia and red shades, then fashionistas will definitely dress like that. But can they be stylish at the same time? Will the clothes fit them the way they fit the models? The question should be left rhetorical. This is the main difference between fashion and style. It is worth mentioning that there are a huge number of style solutions. Every girl has her own style, although most often she does not notice it. After all, every item of clothing, one way or another, belongs to one of them. This article will discuss the main styles of women's clothing.

Official

Most often it is preferred by women who work in offices or have some kind of representative position. Although this style is already extending beyond the office walls, for example, some formal wardrobe sets can become evening wear. This most often applies to black pencil skirts, linen tops, which are very popular now, and pumps. It is these items of clothing that form the basis of the official style.

Most often it is compared with the classic one. The feeling of similarity is due to the simplicity of forms, minimalism, lack of bright colors and conciseness. This style is dominated by colors such as white and black and their shades. Now girls are also adding pastel colors to this trend, which, in principle, is justified.Also common office style prints are: checkered, geometric and vertical stripes, ribbed. Taboos are feathers, rhinestones, bright colors and other signs of evening wear.

You need to understand that all styles of women's clothing are based on this.

Story

It is not for nothing that Coco Chanel was mentioned at the beginning of the article, who literally created a business style (women's clothing), which previously belonged to the men's wardrobe. It was she who first put trousers on a woman. Now they form the basis of an office wardrobe.

  • Do not confuse the styles of women's clothing and use them in formal jewelry. It's better to leave them for evening outings. Of course, if we are talking about a linen top, then it simply requires a small silver pendant. But otherwise, the best piece of jewelry would be a watch and nothing else. Minimum details. Minimum color. Minimum items of clothing. These are the three pillars on which the whole style rests.
  • It is strictly forbidden to use T-shirts and tops other than those mentioned above, otherwise you may end up looking like a cheerleader. It is better to limit yourself to a plain blouse or cotton shirt. You should not use heavy textures and fabrics - this will weigh down the image and make a completely unnecessary impression.
  • As for the skirt, the best option would be a pencil style - it will perfectly emphasize what you need and hide what is unnecessary. A pleated skirt, which has not gone out of fashion for several seasons, would also look good.
  • A mandatory attribute of this style are tights. It is better to wear black ones, of course, if you do not take light-colored shoes. In this case - only bodily ones.
  • When it comes to shoes, your best option would be black high-heeled pumps. Also now white sneakers with block soles are gradually becoming part of the office wardrobe; they will look very good with pleated skirts. But in this case, you need to take a voluminous top (for example, a sweatshirt).
  • Trousers. It is better to give preference to shortened models. But then loafers or moccasins would be an excellent shoe option. If these are classic pumps, flared trousers will do. The color is predominantly black; white trousers will have to be abandoned. Gray ones are also a good option.
  • Jacket. It is not recommended to buy oversized models for an office wardrobe; it is better to buy classics. And leave the first option for the street.
  • Bag. There are no restrictions here. It can be of absolutely any style, size and color; a bright bag (for example, fuchsia, coral, yellow) will look very interesting.

Boho

The styles are very different, and this one is quite different from the previous one. This trend is quite modern, it became popular in the mid-2000s, and originated during the period of cultural change in the 90s. The main features are a large number of details, jewelry, denim, leather goods, organic colors and textures. Boho is a combination of incongruous things. Have you ever seen gypsy camps with their colorful outfits, layers and flowers in their hair? This direction is approximately the same. Only it can “be friends” with grunge (high black boots, spikes, oversized style, etc.).

The basis

Women's has several items that are considered basic.

  • Floor skirt. It must be made of linen, its color is sand or light coral, pastel, it is possible to use a floral print on it. The main thing is the length.
  • Straw hat. This is a mandatory attribute; a wide-brimmed hat is especially valuable.
  • Sandals with flat soles, always made of genuine leather in light shades. They may well be gladiator or have long satin ties, as will be fashionable in the coming season. Espadrilles are also a good option. from jute.
  • Denim jacket or vest, preferably the former. A prerequisite is light and loose oversized jeans.
  • Sunglasses. There are no special restrictions here, because this accessory is quite difficult to choose: some people like a teardrop shape, while others prefer aviators. You won't guess.

Classic

The article has already said that this style is very similar to the official one. Of course, the main wardrobe items of a girl who loves this style will be trouser suits, pencil skirts and that very little black dress to which the already mentioned one wrote odes. Another name for this style is English, because it is quite conservative, and as you know, the homeland of conservatives is England.

Main features

Undoubtedly, this is rigor, laconic forms, the use of pastel and neutral shades and light fabrics. Also, this direction practically does not tolerate the use of unnecessary parts and accessories.

Classic style (women's clothing) never goes out of fashion. He was andwill always be relevant. Therefore, if grandmothers preferred it, it’s time to rummage through the attics in search of interesting things. There will definitely be something.

Women's clothing styles are divided into types. Thus, classics have two subtypes: official and business. But they are often combined into one.

Safari

The origin of this trend is clear. Previously, explorers of wild savannahs or people going on expeditions dressed like this. That is, from what has already been said, certain features inherent in the style can be identified. The main one is comfort and ease of wearing. Otherwise, why wear clothes if they only bring inconvenience? So, let's move on to the features.

Traits

  • Light color everywhere - wardrobe items, accessories, shoes. This style uses only two colors: khaki and sand, the rest is just their shades.
  • Bell-bottomed and riding breeches made from lightweight fabrics and structures.
  • Using only organic materials in technology.
  • Animal print, especially for accessories (wood bracelets, earrings).
  • The use of such elements as “epaulets” (everyone’s favorite trench coats), tucks and folds, the effect of wrinkled fabric.
  • The safari style in women's clothing (photo below) does not depart from the shirt style and cut. The shirt dress is the main element, the basic item of the direction.

Men's style

This trend has migrated into the women's wardrobe since the First World War, when the fairer sex had to do the hard work of men. Thus, at this moment, women's clothing styles were added to one more.

Trousers

No, not just trousers, but those that she put on herself after taking them from her husband. At first the whole world reacted horribly to this. I considered this prank to be yet another madness and bad taste. But after a few decades, all women began to wear this comfortable style, which, although it hides the legs, shows smoothness and ease of movement.

The tuxedo

It would seem that this wardrobe item is truly masculine, and it is even unimaginable to imagine that a girl could wear it. It turns out that maybe it looks very interesting and respectable. Especially if these are black tight trousers and a jacket of a classic, slightly elongated shape. By the way, the first one who put it onThis costume was worn by the famous fashion designer Yves Saint Laurent.

Leather jacket

The now popular leather jacket was once a purely men's item of clothing, this is quite strange to hear now, but the information is correct. Moreover, such a jacket has taken root very tightly in a woman’s wardrobe and now forms its basis. Almost every look goes with a biker jacket.

Men's style in women's clothing is quite popular. Just look at the oversized model, which is very popular now.

Chicago style of the 30s (women's clothing)

This direction is very well shown in the movie “The Great Gatsby”.

Main features:

  • Short length of skirts and dresses.
  • Low waistline.
  • Bright colors, sparkles, sequins, feathers, fur.
  • Open back.
  • Deep neckline.
  • Sandals or shoes, but always with a stable small heel for fiery dancing.
  • Hairstyles with gathered curled hair.
  • A large number of accessories, in particular rings and earrings, head decorations that attract attention.

Conclusion

The article listed the main styles of women's clothing. The photos used in the text allow you to understand what each of them represents. They perfectly demonstrate how rich and diverse the fashion world is. After reading the article, there should be no questions left about the directions of different times.

People often confuse two concepts such as fashion and style. This is considered a blunder. A person who follows fashion and dresses in accordance with new trends in the fashion world regularly changes his looks throughout his life. And this is not surprising. After all, fashion constantly switches accents so as not to bore its followers. But there are people who remain fans of one style all their lives, which reflects their attitude to reality. Each style has its own history. The topic of this article is modern and its varieties.

The main thing you need to know

Style is a figurative solution to a costume, created with the help of a variety of elements that are distinguished by artistic and plastic uniformity. Fashion has a long history, during which various styles have been created. Some of them developed over centuries, but changed quite rarely. Today it is almost impossible to find style in its pure form. To better navigate modern clothing styles, you need to know their classification. Classic, romantic, sporty, folk and eclectic are the five main costume styles. Since each of them has a unique structure, they need to be considered in more detail.

Classic

Modern classic clothing style combines rigor and a business approach. Elegance of form and minimalism in detail are its main characteristics. Classics include everything that time has left behind. The main features of this style remain unchanged and are out of fashion. They are manifested in restraint and simplicity of lines, as well as in a laconic cut, the techniques of which have been perfected over decades. Classic style clothes are not striking. It has such distinctive features as quality and reliability. The main characteristics of the construction of the suit are rationality and suitability for purpose. The proportions of classic clothing are distinguished by a semi-fitting silhouette and correspond to the human figure. This cut is suitable for both men and women. Classic modern clothing style is acceptable for representatives of any generation and body type.

A few important nuances

The history of English men's suit played a decisive role in the formation of the modern classical style. Therefore, the main materials for making clothes are wool, gabardine, flannel, as well as poplin and rep. The classics are also distinguished by small and discreet patterns in thin stripes, herringbone or checkered patterns. Regardless of the situation, classic clothing always remains relevant.

Romance

Romantic modern will help make dreams of a feminine and airy look come true. Great variety, decorative shapes and details - these are the main advantages of this style. Often, romantic items are distinguished by complex cut and elegant finishing. This style can be described in two words - femininity and fantasy. Items made from light, thin, airy fabrics, such as silk, chiffon, lace, guipure, cashmere, add tenderness and delicacy to the look. Also, in the production of such clothing, knitwear and mesh are often used. To add mystery and sophistication, things can be complemented with a variety of jewelry or fur.

How to properly complement a romantic style?

The romantic modern style of clothing is not suitable for every lady. But if you use its elements correctly, you can transform yourself into a gentle and feminine girl. As a rule, the romantic style is intended for holidays or evening events. When dressing in this style, it is inappropriate to use bright colors. But various additions in the form of accessories such as lace gloves and jewelry are welcome. You can add sophistication to your look with romantic hats with a veil, complex hairstyles or scarves.

Sports are always in fashion!

During the period of active development of technological progress, as well as the growing popularity of various sports, a sports style of clothing became established. This happened in the second half of the 20th century. This style is still considered beautiful and comfortable. It is designed to ensure human comfort while driving. At the same time, he must also emphasize the advantages of his physique. Modern sportswear style is very popular, especially among young people. Moreover, it has a huge influence on the formation of other styles. Thus, a business outfit can be transformed into a slightly sporty one if certain details are added to it. Today, sportswear is complemented by various decorative elements: zippers, metal buttons, snaps, patch pockets, shoulder straps, finishing stitches and other details. The sporty modern style of men's clothing is becoming more and more popular every day. There is a range of colors for every taste and color: from light, pastel shades to the brightest and most colorful colors. During the development of light industry, new types of fabrics are produced, which are primarily used in the manufacture of sportswear.

Who is it suitable for?

A sporty, modern style of clothing is suitable for everyone, regardless of gender, age and body type.

Today, sports shoes, which appear in all their diversity, have also gained wide popularity. All kinds of sneakers, slip-ons, sneakers, as well as special shoes for sports activities - the variety that is so necessary for modern youth.

Folklore in clothing. Returning to tradition

Today, modern clothing in the Russian folk style is quite popular. This style is based on a commitment to national costumes. Despite the rapidly developing progress, many still remain adherents of folk traditions, which contributes to the growing popularity. In the process of making dresses, not only national decorative designs are borrowed. Elements and methods of cutting, as well as shapes and items of costumes - all this is drawn from Russian traditions in clothing. The main characteristics of national clothing are reflected in specific decorations, decorations, certain fabrics, as well as color patterns. Nowadays, it is difficult to meet a person who is dressed in a purely traditional outfit. And modern clothes in Russian folk style are also suitable for everyday going out. Today, the fashion market offers a large selection of various items decorated in folklore traditions. Therefore, a person dressed in a leather jacket decorated with Russian folk ornaments does not cause absolutely any surprise.

Eclecticism and style

Recently, there has been an increase in the popularity of eclectic clothing styles. The world does not stand still. And the person too. Today, more and more young people do not want to be adherents of only one style of clothing. They want unusual combinations of elements. Classic style can be combined with sports style, folk style with romantic style and so on. This phenomenon was called eclecticism, which is so popular these days. Now you don’t have to be afraid of being misunderstood. Combining different images, creating new original combinations, playing with shapes and materials - all this is more relevant than ever. Eclecticism lovers prefer a combination of suede and silk, fur and lace, leather and mesh. Non-traditional materials are welcome here. The eclectic style is popular among young people and various subcultures. Followers of eclecticism are distinguished by their love of freedom and informal fashion. Basically, these are creative people who are endowed with creativity and the ability to combine things of different directions.

For this reason, business attire has clear and defined lines, shapes and silhouettes. This style is not suitable for daily walks.

Various accessories play an important role in shaping the hipster image: glasses, brooches, bracelets, chokers and much more. At first glance, a hipster may appear to be dressed casually or even sloppily. In fact, such people are extremely scrupulous about choosing their wardrobe.
