It is generally accepted that the fuller the figure, the more difficult it is to choose beautiful clothes. And that a plus size woman can hardly create a stylish and modern wardrobe. But even ideal parameters are not a guarantee that a woman will be ready to maintain her appearance in accordance with current fashion trends.
Elena is a 53 year old housewife with a husband, four children and an ideal figure for her age. Most of the items in her wardrobe were bought 10-20 or more years ago. And this is not a high-quality vintage, but out-of-fashion sweaters with patterns, frayed vests, faded blouses and blouses, once donated or bought by someone on the occasion and worn a couple of times.
All this is very outdated, even despite the current fashion for the 90s. Elena, stuck in her faceless pseudo-retro wardrobe, needed to be brighter and more modern, of course, emphasizing her ideal forms, which many at her age can only to envy.
Parameters: height - 160 cm, weight - 55 kg, figure: 90-77-99, clothing size - 44-46.
The choice of the heroine, Alexander Vasiliev and her husband
1. Pencil skirt with blouse and velvet jacket
Elena chose the first set herself. She settled on a dusty burgundy pencil skirt with a front slit, a beige snake-print blouse and an olive velvet jacket. In general, the “frame” of the image is not bad, and even the combination of colors is successful and non-trivial. Khromchenko called the combination of this skirt with a blouse secretary style, which is quite fair.
The jacket, even despite its external beauty as a separate wardrobe item, is completely out of place here. It makes the outfit heavier both visually and in color, and in general it looks more like an elegant dressing gown. The skirt is perfectly combined with suede shoes to match, and the printed blouse is completely self-sufficient and does not require a jacket or vest.
2. A-line leather dress
The second image of Elena was chosen by Alexander Vasiliev, who offered an unusual oversized shirt dress made of artificial leather. If you look at it only up to the level of the skirt, without noticing the legs, it can be mistaken for a raincoat or a loose jacket. The length above the knee and the trapezoidal spacious cut make the look trendy, and no additional accessories are even required.
3. Short wrap dress
The last image was selected by Elena's husband, who settled on a dress similar to the previous one, but fabric and smell. The heroine's dress was too big and she did not like its dark color. By itself, it is fine, but it would look much more advantageous on a woman with a wide waist, which would be successfully disguised. Its baggy cut does not accentuate the figure of the woman you want to draw attention to.
The choice of stylists
For a beauty transformation, stylists have spared no paints. Elena got a versatile short haircut with dynamic strands of light red shade. Eye makeup is made in natural pink and beige tones, and the emphasis is on the upper eyelid, where long, voluminous eyelashes enlarge the eyes, effectively opening the gaze. The classic red lipstick looks not flashy on thin lips, harmoniously combined with the updated wardrobe.
In the choice of kits, there was no layering of colors and textures, the stylists settled on a gray-blue range, making a big curtsy towards active red.
1. Combined Zip Dress
In the first look, the stylists presented a new interpretation of the heroine's first choice. An unusual combination dress looks like a set of a leather shirt and a tight skirt with a large pleat. The dark blue color is diluted with dazzling scarlet boots, which are combined with a bag from "plaid".
2. Red pantsuit with culottes and vest
In the second exit, the stylists decided not to limit themselves to red for accessories, but made it a juicy base for style, consisting of fashionable cropped culottes and a double-breasted vest worn over a blouse with an elegant discreet print. Flawless and fearless brightness of hot red on the edge of orange.
3. 80s business suit
The third image refers to the 80s, when the image of a stylish emancipated business woman was held in high esteem, who wore business suits with catchy fittings and massive gold-like jewelry. The latter is represented by a large chain and clip-on earrings.
A separate accent of the image is patterned tights that add spice and playfulness to an expressive business set.
