Stylists named fashion rules that it's time to break
The main fashion taboos are well known to everyone, even to those who have a rather superficial understanding of fashion. And all because most of these prohibitions were formed over the years and decades, passed down from generation to generation. And now the time has come to revise the prohibitions. Stylists named 9 rules that are no longer relevant and may well be broken.
1. Before going out on the street, you need to remove the accessory that you put on last
Throughout the past century, this is exactly what it was prescribed to do to a well-mannered and self-respecting lady who wants to look elegant and fashionable. Now you don't need to shoot anything, but it's better to add a couple more to the last accessory, just in case. The latest presented collections by Chanel, Gucci, Balmain confirm this.
2. Don't wear a combination of pink and red.
This combination has long been associated with women of easy virtue from the red light district. Many considered this combination of colors vulgar and inappropriate for a decent lady. Modern stylists refute this. Even if some prejudices existed before, the time has come to boldly part with them.
Today this combination looks like fresh and interesting... And if you remember that both colors have a lot of possible shades, then the flight of imagination can be unlimited.
3. Don't wear black and navy
Today, such a combination is considered not ominous and not funeral, as before, but quite appropriate and even solemn. This mix gives chic and stylish image, even if the things themselves are quite simple, experts say. If the fear of looking ridiculous is still alive, then look at how the designers of the collections of the Miu Miu, Gucci and Prabal Gurung brands made such combinations.
4. Don't mix multiple prints
The rule has ceased to apply. And in this the experts are unanimous. The more pictures there are in the image, the the image will be more interesting and multifaceted... But when mixing prints, do not forget about the rules of visual perception, and therefore leave the stripes and polka dots with floral prints for later, but two animal prints or two different floral prints are just what you need to start with.
5. Sneakers and sneakers are worn only for sports
And so it was. And for a long time. And now the rule doesn't work anymore. Sneakers and sneakers are now acceptable to be worn with skirts and dresses, with business suits and evening dresses. Sneakers are comfortable and free, and practicality and a sense of comfort are now much more important than the opinion of others about the height of your hairpin.
6. A woman must have a white shirt, trench coat and black pencil skirt in her wardrobe.
These things have long been associated with the images of successful women who conquer the hearts of handsome men and the heights of business. But is it all so important to you? Moreover, both modern office fashion and the attitude towards trench coats are not the same.
7. Dresses and trousers must not be worn at the same time
And modern stylists are sure - you can and should. A skirt and jeans, if they are well chosen and form a single ensemble, this is a very interesting multi-layered solution. Skinny jeans and a shirt dress or long tunic don't surprise anyone, so why should a skirt with skinny jeans be so surprised? Experiment.
8. Red lipstick is appropriate only in the evening
This is how our mothers were taught. And the mothers taught us. We also try to teach our daughters, but it doesn’t work anymore, because red lipstick, if it goes to a woman, looks equally amazing in the morning, and at lunchtime and in the middle of the night. And everyone understands this very well.
9. Women should not wear men's clothing.
Once this rule was violated by Coco Chanel, who put on trousers. Now it's your turn. Women admit that men's clothing is very comfortable - the shirts are spacious, the panties are not tight, and the shorts, if they do not fall off, then they fit perfectly. By the way, Crew, H&M, Zara and Forever 21 have things that are tailored for men, but are extremely popular with women.
