Something about the mood (spring/summer 2011)

Major fashion weeks behind and it's time to take stock of trends, styles and moods. 
In the 800 thousandth time I say that next summer and spring will be dominated by white and light (on a par with fluorescent colors, geometry, and psychedelic prints: /). 
Inspiration for the season can be found in photo shoots for fashion magazines, like mood for the autumn 2011 would be in issues for autumn 2011 . But now only in October 2010, and the numbers for March 2011 is no)). Photo shoots, too). And, behold, I found (completely by accident) a very inspiring picture for next season. It was a photo shoot for American Vogue in December 2005. Photographer: Steven Meisel, models: Caroline Trentini, Lily Donaldson and Gemma Ward (by the way, she left the modeling business after the death of her friend Heath Ledger). Topic photo shoot was that the girls in elegant evening dresses doing everyday things. So, the picture:  


Can you feel it?)) White dresses, delicate lace, sunny color foam - it all looks so easy and cool! Plus, the very gesture: a model of throws things up! Everything in this photo is suitable for summer 2011, until the pink basin, because the pink - minitrend next season). Do you share my "inspired" by this photo?

BEVZA - s/s 2011 Ukrainian Fashion Week

After seeing this collection, you can enjoy the atmosphere of the last fashion week in New York. In the bows dominated minimalism, white (especially popular on the fashion week in New York), lung tissue. Dresses are very elegant, nothing more.
So, the best looks and about them:
Dresses of two layers: Tight lower and transparent top was met in New York. Beige color is not losing ground, but now (unlike this fall and winter) it will not be major, and used parts and accessories (shoes on, for example).
2. Playful dresses (mini-length, highlighted the waist) are most often met in New York and London. Of silk and chiffon. For example, a dress from the latest collection Preen (left) 3. Long dress, soaked in minimalism, from silk and silk chiffon (as in photo number 3) were used in the collection of BCBG Max Azria. Photo on the right.
Transparent tops and completely white bows in the collection was dominated by Chloe Spring / Summer 2011 (photo left). Short pants can be considered the trend next year, but narrower.
5. The easiest way to look next spring and summer fashion: Wear a long silk painting pastel shades, and to emphasize the waist with any belt (preferably thin and leather, bright colors (like yellow or light green), but the silver enhancement also will look stylish and feminine.

Trends Spring / Summer 2011

*I'm sorry that did not write anything for so long . In the future I'll give this blog as much as possible. Because I love to blog, and this is not boring. It's all about the time.*


Next spring and summer clothing will be aimed at ease! Styles, fabrics, colors - everything. This does not mean that skirts and dresses will be very short and transparent. It is a mood for the entire season. And it will be summer, sea, and at the same time restrained and Urban.
So, first of the major styles of dress. Chief among them:
  • Romantic;
  • Business style;
  • Sports;
  • Style of the 70tees and 90tees.
Romantic style. Romantic style often met at New York Fashion Week. It is dominated by a long dress made of chiffon and silk, and form-fitting lace dress (with a corset, for example). Clothes in this style really brings back the summer, "beach" mood and emphasizes femininity. Style outfits, of course, form their style, color, fabric. The most topical colors: white, blue. Fabric: silk, chiffon, cotton. Dresses decorated with ruffles, lace, flounces, floral print. And the most suitable will be gold jewelry.
 



Business style. It became the most popular on the fashion week in Milan. Next spring and summer of raisins business style will be the perfect fit and bright colors (made the breakthrough display of Jil Sander). It also will be closely intertwined with fashion 70tyh (gloss, silk, broad shoulders). But the interpretation of the office dress code was a very feminine, as well as men. In all suits dominated the restraint, but accented transparent light blouse and summer prints and fabrics (not always). As already stated, the bright colors will be most successful, but the classic black and white would not surrender position - a win-win. Leather accessories (bags) is ideally suited to a business ensemble.

Mood for the season Fall/Winter 2010/2011

September is coming and, accordingly, the beginning of the new season too! The next fall and winter will be filled with simplicity, elegance and style of the 50s and 90s.
The autumn is full of major fashion weeks (Paris, New York, London, Milan) and other important events. Therefore, as sooner raise the topic of next season, as better (otherwise, there is no more time for this!).
So, it is important to fing the right mood for the next six months. Beige, gray, dark green and red colors (which would be the most fashionable) give comfort and elegance. Fatal hairstyles from lush air locks of hair and severe makeup accentuated with bright lips will add romance to any look. Remember the movies in the 90s and in the 50s: Most of them are full of romance, lyricism and philosophy (this is gradually becoming a sort of untrue posts in the journal, and now everything comes to its logical conclusion, such as: "Buy, finaly, the movie "Pretty Woman "and enjoy a comfortable room in The Plaza Hotel. Also buy a new coat from Ralph Lauren and walk in it through the streets of New York, using an options from our touristic company "Wanderer".)
So, the mood. I think it is best to make a collage (in this case, in the pop-art style).For the picture below  I've spent unless four hours in Google and Magazines to find the right images. So, I want you to appreciate that. And, I'm sure this picture is gives the right mood.
 By the way, many people do the same just for inspiration for the work (for example, click here to see the "set of photos and painting from the editor of Russian Vogue).
