What will be fashionable in six months: 8 trends from Paris
SUMMING UP, held in the framework of the Fashion Week in Paris. We have already written about trends from New York, London and Milan this autumn: baroque, brocade and velvet, vinyl and new tweed, wavy stand-up collars, brooches, flared pants, retro-futurism - all this also appeared on most Parisian shows. In this material - 8 more trends from the Fashion Week in Paris, which we will adapt to our wardrobe throughout this year. However, no one bothers to do it right now.
80s
Decade of new wave, punk and radical design. The 80s brought not only Japanese avant-garde, Martin Marghelu and John Galliano into fashion, but also several iconic wardrobe items. For example, voluminous leather jackets and cocoon coats, vinyl raincoats, blouses, wide trousers and lurex tights. These and many other things of the 80s in the new season showed Jonathan Anderson, who is always one step ahead of other designers. In Paris, apart from Anderson, the 80s supported Miuccia Prada in the new Miu Miu collection. She shows round shoulders and knee-length classic skirts, colored vinyl and tweed, various texture materials, incompatible prints. In general, now is the time to explore the wardrobe of parents.
Shoes with a small heel
Low-heeled shoes are little worn, preferring a flat sole or a high classic heel. Nevertheless, shoes with a low and even very low heels made a comeback, appearing on shows from Miu Miu, Stella McCartney and Chanel to Céline and Maison Margiela. Phoebe Failo showed low-heeled shoes, reminiscent of dance shoes, last season and supported this model in the new collection. However, in the autumn season her woven shoes with a square nose are already decorated with baroque crystals. Such shoes look equally well with a trench coat, and with a dress in a linen style, and with wide trousers. Modest, intelligent, comfortable.
Skirts with many cuts
Recently we talked about skirts with a deep slit to the thigh. The next step can be skirts and dresses with a lot of cuts, like those of anime heroines. Such skirts appeared on all the major fall-winter shows from Proenza Schouler in New York to Christian Dior in Paris. To meet the trend, the skirt must have at least two cuts. However, the more there are, the better. To reduce the degree of sexuality is possible by wearing a skirt with a men's shirt and boots.
Color pantsuit
Pantsuit has long become the constant of women's wardrobe and in the new season was actively presented on the catwalks in New York. By the end of all the weeks of fashion, the costume story can be summarized Future autumn will be relevant color options: blue, green, orange, beige, dusty pink. A versatile color suit featuring Louis Vuitton and Akris. Stella McCartney works with khaki and flared trousers. Among our favorites are elongated double-breasted jackets (in the fashion of the 80s) and shortened straight cut trousers - in this sense, Raf Simons showed an ideal trouser suit.
Poncho
Capes on the fashion of the 60s do not leave the runways for the third season. Another thing - poncho. Being more controversial and, for the most part, an age thing, poncho returns to fashion less often. However, in the next fall in the stores from them will not hide. The main thing in dealing with a poncho is to avoid errors in proportions and not to wear it with bare legs and boots. Unlike cape, which can be opened wide, a midi skirt or pants should be seen from under the poncho, as advised at Céline and Kenzo shows. The greatest potential for poncho-anorak is made of nylon: in this you can travel around music festivals.
"Cruel" clothing
Prêt-à-porter literally translates as "ready-made clothing" created for mass production. In the new season, designers one after another decided to rethink this term. Following Prada, they show things as if woven by hand, but left unfinished. On the catwalks, we see things that have threads sticking out, the seams are turned out, the sleeves are torn off or the fabrics are aged. Often this is only an imitation of couture work and techniques borrowed from designers of the 70-80s: from the same Miuccia Prada and Vivienne Westwood to the Japanese avant-garde artists. For example, Acne and Alexander Wang decorate thick wool and tweed items with careless stitches, while Phoebe Faylo shows jackets with careless buttons and detachable sleeves, as well as knitted dresses that are not tailored from the back.
New animal prints
Animal prints in fashion seem to be and always will be, because colorful things, like Lurex, sell well. In the autumn-winter season, the brands show animalistic prints of all kinds: leopard, serpentine, zebra-colored, and randomly mix them together, like in Miu Miu. Louis Vuitton reanimate the leopard and Céline zebra. Raf Simons animalic print turns into a psychedelic drawing, leaving the new season in the work with animal prints farthest. Attention deserve things where you expect the bright print the least: bombers, jackets with pockets, accessories.
Flared sleeves and cuffs
One of the interesting ideas from Paris can be attributed to jackets with flared sleeves and cuffs, like Pierrot. This detail was borrowed from the medieval costume and was introduced into fashion in the late 60s. Clothing with flared cuffs are in the collections of Louis Vuitton and Céline, as well as in the new collection of Ukrainian designer Anton Belinsky, who reached the final of the LVMH Prize this year. By the way, Nina Donis showed grooved cuffs for the season earlier.
