10 demi-season things for basic wardrobe
ABOUT BASE WARDROBE FOR LATE AUTUMN KNOW EVERYTHING but few people think specifically about its preparation, but in vain. Although the border between the seasons is being erased more and more and nothing prevents us from wearing heavy knit sweaters in summer, and combination dresses in winter, before the onset of cold weather, we still go to the store to look for things that we cannot do without. Wonderzine lists 10 basic things per demi-season.
If you live in Russia, it’s time to start searching for a good fur coat for winter (or a feather coat - which, by the way, is much more difficult). But until the end of this fall a warm lined coat will come in handy, in which it will not be cold and at -5 ° C. There are no restrictions on this issue: beige and fitted, black and straight or pink and voluminous.

Not so long ago, we talked about how things from mohair returned to the podium. Angora goat wool sweater will be a good investment in the fall: it is both protection from the cold and a worthy alternative to pig-faced sweaters. The main thing is to choose a quality material, otherwise the fibers of the fabric will stick to the clothes.

Turtlenecks, tops originally from the 1920s and the uniform of Steve Jobs and Steve McQueen are now shown by every other brand, from Balenciaga to Hussein Chalayan. We are sure that the matter is in their functionality: they protect against cold and can replace a scarf. The choice is huge again: from wool baggy to short from velvet.

Cardigan in its classical sense is not very popular among brands, although the base can be found in Burberry and Uniqlo. But at the peak of baggy cardigans, which can wrap up in the coldest weather (think of the autumn-winter collection of Saint Laurent). It can be replaced with wool kimonos - these are worn with wide belts like Japanese obi.

You shouldn’t talk about the merits of a simple beautiful dress: this is a thing that you put on in the morning in five minutes, and receive compliments throughout the day (of course, if you finally found the same thing). If there are already many monophonic wardrobe items, you can experiment with graphic ones. The main thing is to choose calm colors: depending on them, the dress can turn from basic to flashy.

According to the designer Céline Phoebe Faylo, well-fitting trousers made of wool - almost the best investment. Now you can buy and trousers, flared from the hip, and trousers straight silhouette. Universal - black, you can wear them with a turtleneck - again, in the spirit of Phoebe Failo.

In cold weather, wearing a mini-skirt is at least silly, and a maxi-skirt is at least inconvenient. Medium-length skirts are suitable for cold weather and, by the way, are promoted by Hermès (leather claws) and Dolce & Gabbana with Louis Vuitton (tweed pencil skirts). The most popular length is up to the middle of the ankle, but it is important to ensure that it does not cut the leg: so if necessary it is necessary to sew the skirt to the desired length.

Season sneakers and shoes coming to an end: it is time to replace them with warmer shoes. According to Acne Studios and Stella McCartney, these should be ankle boots on a massive, grooved sole - such are copied by all mainstream brands. They fit literally everything: midi skirts and straight black trousers.

It's all clear. No matter how difficult the search for caps, it is better to do it as soon as possible, otherwise you risk seriously undermining health. Hint: Pay attention to the volume beanie that fits well at all. The same applies to the scarf (long and voluminous) and gloves (base ones of dark-colored wool will do). It is better not to weather the neck and skin of the hands.

Although the blogs and photos of the guests of Fashion Weeks are trying to convince us that the existence without tights is the only right thing in life is not entirely true. Bare ankles against the background of the first snow look at least inappropriate, and the combination of fur coats and sandals is completely abnormal. At the same time, tight tights and warm socks have not been associated with the Soviet past for a long time: it has been proven that they can look beautiful.
