What to wear in spring: 10 new wardrobe hits

EVERY SEASON we talk about things that it makes sense to add to your wardrobe. So this time we chose 10 items of clothing and footwear that we all will inevitably buy in the next three months. Just because they will be in every store and on every mannequin.

Blouse with open shoulders

The legacy that we inherited as part of the autumn return of a Victorian-style blouse with open shoulders this spring can be found at any mass-market brand. The compromise between convenience and beauty is obvious. In early spring, combine a blouse with a corset or a tight top on top - it will definitely not be cold. In this combination, you can safely come to the office with a loose dress code or to study. It is worth noting that the blouse with open shoulders is obligatory: you have to keep your back straight and your shoulders straightened. If you are afraid to look infantile or caricatured (some models do cause direct associations with the “Lady-Peasant Woman”), choose blouses from dense shirt fabric.

Very long sleeves

The trend set by Vetements, and does not think to retreat. After them, very long sleeves of sweaters, hoodies and coats showed all who feel like it. The most noticeable in the spring-summer season is Max Mara, the brand's recipe: a strip, bright make-up and long sleeves - in general, grunge in a new interpretation. In such a sweater, it's nice to wrap your hands in your sleeves, so that a sudden snowfall in April (we have seen that) will not take surprise. This thing will be to the liking of even those who can hardly imagine hypersize clothing.

Transparent dresses

Spring-summer trends never do without transparent fabrics. The current season is no exception. This time, the bet is on absolutely transparent dresses, which, according to the designers, need to be worn over ordinary clothes. Dresses made of chiffon and mesh, which serve as covers and an additional layer, have been made by Moscow designer Lesia Paramonova for more than a year now. In the new season, similar ones could be seen in both Miu Miu and Stella McCartney. We suspect that fastfeshn does not sleep, and soon they can also be seen in Topshop or H & M. If the combination of a transparent dress with a strict midi skirt and trousers-pipes seems too unusual to you, wear it with a shirt in a linen style and a strict jacket over it. As in our instructions.

Trousers in sequins

Designers with enviable persistence do not agree to promote the same idea: sequins are always a good option. And it is true that from an exclusively festive element, they long ago migrated to the daily wardrobe. It makes no sense to pretend that it is not. As there is no conflict between the trend for pants with sequins and the trend for "new comfort". Spring things from sequins look so noble that they can easily go even to an important meeting. The main thing in this case is that all other clothes should be neutral. Wear fashionable trousers with sequins with deliberately everyday, even boring things: white T-shirts, men's jackets and, of course, sneakers. Anyway, this is an option that is difficult to miss.

Things with giant shuttlecocks

“New romantics”, Spanish flamenco, Huguenots - the designers who showed things with huge flounces, ruffles and ruffles in the new season had several sources of inspiration at once. After Alexander McQueen, J.W.Anderson, Rosie Assoulin and their colleagues, the trend was picked up by well-known low-cost brands. It is possible to find items with frills even in men's collections of brands that, according to the spirit of the time, are releasing agent clothes. You can wear them with anything, but, according to the designers, the most effective things with frills look in combination with other things with frills.

Bustier or corset

The linen style continues to gain momentum. If in winter, contrary to common sense, the shirt was secretly proclaimed the most fashionable dress of the season, then in spring and summer you can’t do without a bustier or corset. Do not be afraid, however. Often, it is not necessary to expose the body. Almost all brands - from MM6 Maison Margiela to J.W.Anderson - strongly recommend wearing corsets over t-shirts and tight tops. Is anyone against?

Very large jacket

An indicative moment: what seemed to us an oversight a couple of years ago can now be called an oversight with a big stretch. So the jackets are also “grown up”. Tight-fitting jacket is now appropriate only in offices with a strict dress code. The advantages of jackets, coats over other mass - for example, they are elementary more convenient. Under them you can easily hook several layers of clothing at once, which will especially appeal to lovers of multi-layered images. It is better to wear such a masculine thing with something delicate, for example, a light dress, a skirt with frills or flared trousers.

Lace-up shoes

A neat sock, a small, steady heel and obligatory lacing — something like this looks like perfect shoes in spring 2016. You can wear these (both with jeans and dresses) as soon as the snowdrifts begin to melt. Alessandro Michele for the Gucci collection was one of the first to show such a model. Later it was repeated by all and sundry. An excellent compromise between price and quality is the model of the Spanish mass market Zara. A small bag of a rigid form on a short handle will be an excellent partner for them.

Mühli

Shoes without a backdrop in the new season can be found in a good half of the brands. Cossacks, loafers, Moroccan grannies - set points of reference. It is on the latter, we would advise to pay close attention. This shoe has all the chances to overshadow the birken stocks, which during two summers managed to fill the teeth with teeth. You can wear them immediately as the snow melts: as is the case with birken stocks, socks will become a functional accent. Associations with slippers and misunderstandings on the part of those around you cannot be avoided for some time, but we, of course, advise taking risks and being first. By the end of the summer, everyone will change into mules.

Hairpins and tiaras

Tiaras, similar to those that can be seen in youth American proms, are a favorite accessory for designers this spring. Louis Vuitton, Miu Miu, Saint Laurent combined them with the most familiar things. If such a bright accent is too much for you, pay attention to the shiny hairpins. There were no less of them in the spring collections. The most beautiful example - both in the subjects themselves and in styling - is the display of the future autumn-winter by Alexander McQueen. There is no reason not to take the trend right now, no.
