Double transformations are quite rare in fashion and style programs, which is why they are always so curious. As a rule, they transform either spouses or girlfriends, or mother and daughter, choosing their own style for each character, taking into account individual characteristics. This time, Rachel Ray changed the style of mother and daughter, who, adjusted for age, looked absolutely identical. Both women admitted that their style, if you can call it that, developed two, or even three decades ago..
Body transformation without changing style
The daughter has her own story. For a certain period of time, Melissa lost 85 kg, but having gained new weight, she never adapted to the new style. She wore stretched, faceless knitwear with jeans and sneakers, and continues to wear them.
With hair that curls by nature, she does nothing, even though she has more and more gray hair every year. Melissa also wears glasses, like her mother. The mother said that she really wants her daughter's inner beauty to be finally manifested through beautiful and stylish clothes.
Curls, gray hair and comfortable knitwear
As for the mother, the situation here is very similar. She also has naturally curly hair that is completely gray, but is occasionally tinted. Her hairstyle, which she does by simply picking up her hair with a headband, she wears for about 20 or 30 years, without changing anything.
Just like her daughter, my mother is addicted to knitwear in which she feels very comfortable. She had not updated her wardrobe for a very long time, but at a certain moment she saw herself in the mirror and realized that it was time to change something.
Smooth styling instead of curls
The women came to the program to show them the possibilities of transforming their appearance with the help of new hairstyles and clothes. The mother and daughter, who previously looked like twins, are now dressed in different clothes, taking into account their age.
The first thing that catches your eye is a change in hairstyle. They were able to see themselves without natural curls, to which they have become so accustomed in their entire lives. Mom was given a calm elegant styling on a bob-bob haircut, having previously dyed her hair in a soft sandy blond. This shade is ideal for a woman of mature age, without creating dissonance with her natural color type.
The daughter's hair was left a little more elongated, but the color was made more juicy and expressive. Natural dark hair with strands of gray hair was dyed in a shade of red, which generally goes to the heroine, also without conflicting with her native color type.
The shine of golden sequins and the elegant softness of velvet
The daughters picked up a short sheath dress above the knee, richly decorated with gold sequins. The pomp of this fancy dress was soothed by a sleek black leather jacket in a casual style.
The mother was made more elegant. The woman was dressed in a knee-length velvet dress in a noble plum shade, with long sleeves and a deep V-neck. The shoes were very comfortable, flat and with Roman-style straps. Both heroines have pointed shoes, but they put their daughter on a small heel.
It will not be enough
Comparison of the outfits of mother and daughter proves that sometimes there is nothing better than conciseness and minimalism, since details overload the style and form the wrong message of the image. Despite the fact that the daughter's dress, due to its texture, conceals the fullness, which is emphasized by thin jersey, the thin black jacket is obviously too small for the heroine, who is unlikely to be able to button it.
Also, the dress looks a little short, possibly due to the stretching of the length over a full torso. It would sit much better on a less full figure, because the fabric would not be stretched, and the dress would not rise up. If you cover your knees and choose a looser cut of the dress, the proportions will be perceived completely differently, and the figure will look neater.
There is also some dissonance with the red hair color. In the image of the daughter, unlike the mother, there is no uniformity of style. She's like a teenage girl who wants to be an adult, but can't present herself yet, so she combines the incongruous.
