Modern fashion in one way or another reflects what is happening in the world. While comfortable home clothes go out of quarantine to the streets, designers hungry for bright colors and extravagant looks support the concept of “joyful fashion”. They suggest wearing bold colors and intricate prints to brighten up lingering gloom. The spring-summer season promises to be bright for ideas and their fashionable embodiment. Aida compose, subjugate and tame the most unthinkable patterns!
Queen's move
Checkerboard and checkered prints have long and deservedly been considered elegant classics. What will surprise us with new trends? We rip off labels and get rid of stereotypes: this season, plaid outfits of deliberately large size and bold colors are moving into the “must be taken” category. And things that resemble woolen blankets of Soviet times, they say, will be in special honor at all. I haven’t seen anything like it on the streets yet, so the first move is ours, women of fashion!
For lovers of minimalism, there is also good news: the classic cage and houndstooth, as always, are in trend.
Washed print
Clothes with rainbow patterns in bright acidic shades made a splash last season. For all their love for "joyful fashion" today, designers suggest choosing more calm and muted tones. They are easier to fit into everyday looks. And if it seems to you that the top things look as if they have been washed and painted unsuccessfully, I propose to consider "marble stains" in this fashionable color. I already wanted to get a hoodie in this style. And you?
Pastoral motives
I propose to start mastering this trend now - when, if not in winter, wear cozy knitted sweaters? And if they depict interesting plot pictures with many small details that you want to consider, or summer rural landscapes, it will even seem warmer.
Strips and shreds
Combined these two trends at one point - because of their inherent brightness. Stripes are in fashion now not only red and blue, but bright and multi-colored. In order not to "ripple" and "jump" in the eyes, clothes with such a print can be combined with pretty light collars. This is a good example of how to dilute the flashy brightness and fit two trends into one thing.
Outfits with bright patches and patches reminiscent of the patchwork technique are back in fashion. Put on trousers and a shirt made of flowing fabric in pajama style - and straight into sophisticated Provence (of course, immediately after the opening of the borders).
Hearts and strawberries
Romantic patterns, despite their naivety, are very versatile. They can look organic on a sweater, dress, and trousers. To create playful and perky images - what you need.
How to mix several prints in one look and not overplay?
Key rule of thumb: There should be something unifying in prints.
The patterns can be different, but the color scheme is the same. Or the same print in different or the same size. Large and small cells, for example, go well together, and geometric patterns also work well. And also - inscriptions, especially if the color of the text matches the shade of the print in the image.
Last season we saw a boom in flowers and buds. Garden and field motives do not leave us in the new year 2021. Different floral patterns in one image can also be combined, but this must be done skillfully. No matter how many examples I saw, none of them inspired fashion experiments, they all look somehow too colorful.
But connecting geometric patterns is almost always easy and win-win.
By the way, leopard and animal prints, which are active in themselves, are stylishly combined with many other patterns. And with wide stripes, and even flowers.
In the new season, fashionistas will definitely have much more freedom for creativity and experimentation. Finally, you can try the "forbidden" - to wear everything at once. And, perhaps, it is much better than a comfortable tracksuit and your favorite pajamas at a “remote location”.
