The image of a typical housewife has long been the talk of the town. Dressing gowns, knitted suits, old T-shirts, loose tunics... Moreover, if you have excess weight. The husbands of such women recall with nostalgia what they were, hoping for the return of dresses, skirts, heels, makeup and a smile on their face.
From miniskirts to knitted tunics
38-year-old Maria is a woman with an analytical mind. She was once a teacher of mathematics and computer science at school, but for several years now she has been an ordinary Russian housewife. For 13 years she has been married to romantic Peter, who is 2 years younger, they have a 5-year-old son.
According to the heroine's husband, once Maria literally drove him crazy with her images in mini-skirts, which he fell for at first sight. But now she dresses badly, does not inspire him at all, so he decides to look for lightness and inspiration on the side. Nothing forbidden - just friendship, communication and lightness of the soul. So he says.
After giving birth, Maria became very stout and has complexes about this. She switched to dark, spacious things that hide her figure, in particular, a large protruding belly as the main problem area. But the plumpness of the wife does not bother her husband, but it is the unattractive clothes that bother him - unattractive and gloomy.
Once again, the stylists of "Fashionable Verdict" were faced with the task of changing clothes for a woman of short stature, but a large physique with an "apple" figure, which always becomes a real challenge.
Parameters (declared in the program): height - 160 cm, weight - 76 kg, figure - 117/108/115, clothing size - 50
Your own choice
1. Lavender glitter fabric dress
Maria's first outfit was picked up by her husband. He himself admitted that he did not guess either with the size or with the cut. The ankle-length dress has a pale lilac hue, which, although beautiful in itself, actually suits very few people and almost doesn't paint anyone.
The waist is out of place, the sleeves are hanging, and the shiny material only always highlights the fullness, visually increasing the figure. The dress looks like a dressing gown, which is not at all suitable for a woman to get rid of the negative image of a coiled housewife.
2. Biker jacket with pleated skirt and T-shirt
Maria chose the second outfit herself. She settled on the modern youth classics of everyday life: a black pleated midi skirt with a pink and peach T-shirt, a light biker jacket and sneakers.
The pleated skirt combined with a T-shirt on the "apple" figure does not sit in the best way, focusing on the belly. The jacket is obviously not buttoned here, so a different type of top and bottom suggests itself. For example, an oversized jacket, a skirt with an asymmetrical cut and a blouse that conceals the belly area with a print or a loose fit would be good.
3. Printed Dress and Orange Jacket looks
The third way was picked up by her husband, and the heroine, as well as those present in the studio, liked this choice. This bright orange jacket clearly demonstrates that complex bright shades suit Maria, because it enlivens her and looks more interesting than neutral and gloomy tones. It is enough to change the hairstyle - and we have a wonderful summer look!
The choice of stylists
After the transformation, Maria froze admiringly in front of the mirror, seeing herself for the first time. She said that she had a completely different face - and it was absolutely true! Professionals corrected the heroine's haircut, dyed her hair in a beautiful chocolate shade, and also made an expressive but natural make-up in beige and peach tones.
1. Black blazer dress
In the first exit, the stylists demonstrated a blazer dress fashionable today, which was decorated with a thin dynamic fringe. The black color was set off by gold buttons in the form of flowers and a snake print on the clutch. This dress can be both smart-business and an excellent evening option. When choosing a second handbag, it is better to change it to a gold one.
2. Khaki jacket with red top and leopard skirt
The second exit was a real assortment of styles and details. Here, shades of red with calm khaki harmoniously merged in one set, and a predatory leopard print of a skirt with a translucent tulle top - with red Cossack boots. The stylists have combined the two shades in a very original way, as well as a bold leopard red and authentic shoes with the relaxed khaki jacket with military accents.
3. Evening look in blue tones
The third way out was the most controversial, because it added to Mary's age. Despite the fact that it has something in common with the first image from stylists, shoulder pads, bright color and a pompous solemn message makes the heroine, who is not even 40 years old, a stately aunt, which, with her complexion, is quite risky.
From the pros: this outfit beautifully and competently combines different shades of blue, where it is lighter, cold dusty blue, calms the image, removing the extra visual load of the dominant bright shade.
