About fashion, style, beauty and much more - the words of the great. We read between the lines and adopt aphorisms of famous fashion designers and designers!
"When in doubt, wear red." Bill blass
• Jacket blouse • Evening dress by German designer Marcel Ostertag • Straight cut blouse • The famous American designer was sure that it is impossible to miscalculate with red, but stylists advise: bright red goes to women with light or light blond hair and light or peach skin, that is, the color type "summer", as well as the color type "winter" ( black hair, pale skin). In “spring” and “autumn” the compatibility with shades of red is slightly lower, therefore, the most accurate solution will be an individual assessment of how suitable one or another tone of red is.
"I love pencil skirts because they hug me in the right places." Mandy moore
• High-waisted pencil skirt • Soft pleated pencil skirt • Pencil skirt with embossed seams •
Pencil skirt repeats all the bends of the female figure, emphasizes the line of the waist and hips and creates an elegant feminine image. Stylists note that such a cut is ideal for slim women with an hourglass figure, as well as thin women with a rectangle figure. In addition, a triangle-type set with a pencil-skirt + volumetric top kit will help visually correct the disproportionality of the figure.
"You can't look too chic or too modest in a little black dress." Karl Lagerfeld
• Dress with embossed seams • Little black dress of an adjacent silhouette • Little black dress with lace sleeves •The dress, invented by Chanel, looked quite simple - it was just below the knees (the designer considered her knees to be the most ugly part of a woman’s body), had a modest semicircular neckline and narrow long sleeves. Any woman could buy such a dress. In addition, this model allowed you to create a variety of images, as it combined perfectly with almost any accessories.
The dress gained worldwide popularity thanks to Audrey Hepburn, whose heroine wore a small black dress (from Hubert Givenchy) in the movie "Breakfast at Tiffany's." Other movie heroines also often appeared on the screens in a small black dress.

"A prim white blouse can have a thousand distinctive features." Gianfranco Ferre
• Blouse with a deep neckline • Blouse of an adjacent silhouette • Blouse shirt •The white blouse leads its ancestry from the men's shirt, which in the old days was worn only by aristocrats and rich. She was one of the symbols of their special status: they say that only those who do not have to get their hands dirty with work can wear a white shirt. Initially, shirts were worn and removed over the head. Only in the 19th century did they find a button closure. At the same time, shirts are becoming increasingly popular among women and are called "blouses". What is the difference between a man’s shirt and a woman’s blouse?

“Black is modest and puffy at the same time. Black is light and lazy, but mysterious. But first of all black says:“ I don’t bother you, don’t bother me either. ”Yohji Yamamoto.
• Dress with a deep neckline • Straight cut blouse • Embroidered Blouse •Meanwhile, according to the authoritative British colorist Jules Standish, only every fifth woman can wear black! In order to understand whether you are among the “chosen ones”, the expert recommends passing a small test: standing by the mirror, attach a piece of black fabric or a sheet of black paper to your face. Evaluate the result - if a “shadow” appears under the eyes, in the nose, on the chin or under it, this indicates that your skin tone and facial features do not respond to the proximity of black in the most favorable way, which means that you should refuse high necks, collars, scarves and hats of black color. Even if you wear a black dress, try to “freshen up” your face with a scarf that is suitable for you.
