Style classification
Clothing styles
The style is based on images of European settlers who appeared in the American West in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. As a rule, these were residents of villages or urban outskirts in the past. Many of them were Irish or from other parts of Old England. Fashion designers working in this direction fantasize about the urban dweller in the countryside and vice versa, intertwining different cultures and eras. The colors used are mostly muted, pastel - all shades of brown, gray, beige, ocher. Fans of country style introduce into their wardrobe only those novelties of the season that are in tune with their state of mind.
Wardrobe options for a woman dressed in country style are: a suit with a wide-cut jacket, leather buttons, a trouser skirt, coarse knitwear. For models, she chooses thick fabrics such as plaid, checks, tweed. Wears thick stockings and shoes with flat, thick soles.
folk style
This is a modern style of clothing using elements of the national costume. Costumes in this style are sewn from natural fabrics in natural colors. Embroidery, hemstitching, lace, ruffles, lacing, weaving are used for finishing products ... Sometimes there are appliqués and patchwork techniques. The most common pattern is geometric, which goes well with the structure of the fabric. It is interspersed with colored beads, beads, etc.
Emphasis on the waist is possible, for example, a wide belt with lacing. Wide long skirts or dresses, blouses with sleeves heavily gathered at the armhole are common. The neckline is often with a high fastener or round with a cord pulled into the drawstring along the neck. As additions, large scarves with tassels, small colorful pouches are used. On the feet - white cotton stockings or crocheted knee-highs, shoes with wooden soles, simple shoes with low heels or none at all, but with a strap.
rustic style
This is a micro style of folk style or country style. Clothes are sewn in a rustic or folk style, quite simple. For example, a thick woolen skirt, over it is a spacious, loose-fitting flannel shirt, and on top of it is a jacket of emphasized coarse knitting, thick woolen stockings. Fabrics in rustic style have a rough surface, weaves of threads are visible.
lumberjack style
Clothing in the spirit of American lumberjacks, pioneers of the Wild West: a denim shirt with checkered fabric trim - on a checkered yoke, with cuffs on the sleeves, flaps on the pockets, a collar also trimmed with checkered fabric. The men's jacket is long, with a blind clasp, usually made of coarse checkered woolen material.
Work clothes
Clothing used for recreation, gardening. Forms and details adopted in special working clothes are used. So, for example, overalls, which came into fashion from the machine, retain many of their details even in a business or street version.
This style began to take shape in England in the twenties of the XX century. The artist Karel Gonzik in his book "Creating a Lifestyle" wrote: "they found a style of clothing that was adapted to the way they live and work. These people wear hats that fit tightly on their heads and are not blown away by the wind, shoes with double soles , as waterproof as possible, and a short raincoat that does not hinder movement and does not interfere with running.But this raincoat can easily be excluded from their wardrobe, if only because they do not have the opportunity to purchase it at all, while others consider it an unnecessary hindrance in work. Therefore, for the most part, workers go in a jacket, under which they put on a sweater in winter. Since the sleeves and collar of the shirt get dirty quickly, they prefer shirts with short sleeves, and replace the collar with a scarf that is tied around the neck. And although this suit purchased piecemeal from a junk dealer, despite numerous patches, these representatives of the fourth estate cannot be denied a kind of true elegance. They move freely, with a carefree negligence, which is lacking in the philistines, who are constantly afraid of lest they violate the impeccability of their costume.
Eco style
The style is characterized by the colors of the earth and simple stone, sand and clay, tree trunk and leaves. The drawings on the fabrics repeat the silhouettes of herbs, flowers, branches... The fabric used is soft, natural, without a pronounced pattern.
Safari is the style of the English colonizers. Its most characteristic details are light colors of clothing, rather narrow silhouettes, many patch pockets, belts, epaulettes, a set-in sleeve. A special detail is a light hat with small rounded brim. The style of the shirt is usually a cross between a blouse and a blazer, the sleeve is semi-long. Comfortable Bermuda shorts, knee-length socks. Large shoulder bag. Flat shoes made of linen or leather.
Clothing in the style of the pioneers of the Wild West: lightly worn with leather patches, usually with long fringes. The woman's hair is pulled back from her face; at the top of the back of the head are tied with a natural-colored suede ribbon. The heroine is dressed in a checkered blouse with a stitched yoke and collar corners made of silver metal. She wears a brown suede vest on top, possibly fringed. Of the decorations - a small diagonally folded neckerchief, a belt with silver decorations or in the form of a corsage. Prefers indigo jeans or a long, wide flounced skirt. Boots are obligatory on the legs - either long with bells, or short without a back with a leather belt around the top and a bow on the side.
Fashionable clothing in the 70s of the XX century in the spirit of the pastoralists of the prairies of Hispano-Indian origin: a variety of ponchos, wide-brimmed hats with a shallow crown, a casually tied neckerchief, leather boots, baggy trousers (as in the Argentine national costume). Suede, leather jackets, vests, trousers are finished with rivets, appliqué, leather fringe.
Indian style
These are clothes for summer, holidays, the beach, usually made of white cotton fabric. It reflects the features of the Indian costume in a slightly modified form.
Paramilitary style
Extremely popular in recent years. From the clothes of the military, the color of the fabric is borrowed - protective, khaki, brown, gray. In other words, clothing made in a paramilitary style carries all the shades of earth and grass. The styles almost repeat the military uniform. Trench coats with a high fastener are popular. Coat in the spirit of an overcoat. Blouse in thick weave, tied at the top with a belt. Such a shirt is worn, as in the war years, with a skirt. Massive heavy shoes, long tarpaulin-type boots. Of the details, patch pockets, suede and leather knee pads and patches, wide belts and purses are used.
Sport style
Clothing is quite bright, dynamic in nature with a minimum of trimmings. Even at the beginning of the century, many men wore golf trousers. This style is characterized by a free silhouette, many pockets, zippers. Fabrics such as elastic and mixed knitwear are used. Men and women dressed in a sporty style wear T-shirts, polo shirts, sleeveless jackets, shorts, bermuda shorts, tracksuit, cycling pants, leggings, jeans, etc. The suit is complemented by cotton or woolen socks, white, possibly with a stripe along the edge, with diagonal pattern sneakers, low-heeled open shoes with tassels and stitching, thick lace-up shoes. Representatives of this style like to carry large bags, shoulder bags, backpacks.
club style
Sports style. Typical, classic combinations of models are used in a set, with emblems and gold buttons.
This style is the complete opposite of folklore and romantic styles. All sets are usually sewn from modest finely patterned wool or dense cotton fabric. Strict, almost sporty details are used. Additions are also very restrained, emphatically business-like. Characteristic items of urban style are a turtleneck jumper, a blouse-shirt, a roomy bag, durable, solid shoes or boots, a small beret for women and a classic hat for men.
Walking style
A microstyle that combines clothes not just for relaxation, but for walking. Models that do not constrain movements are businesslike. Jackets are voluminous, protecting from wind and rain. Trousers and culottes are worn with thick knitted stockings. On the feet are comfortable shoes with low or medium heels. The cloak is worn with a man's hat. Shirts are checkered or with a small floral pattern, spacious, flannel, they are most often worn without a tie - with a vest or even with a jacket. The sets are complemented by scarves, soft knitted hats. The main technique is layering.

Skirts or dresses are usually long and wide. Handbag small refined over the shoulder, shoes are often without heels.
Retro style
Clothing in this style uses motifs, modeling details from past generations, but does not copy them.
The NEP style is a copy of the style of clothing common in Russia in the 1920s (then there was the NEP). Women dressed in fildepers stockings, smoked cigarettes in mouthpieces, wore knee-length dresses with a low waistline or shirt cut, cut their hair short, wore tight-fitting hats. The men dressed up in black and white plaid suits. Canes, hats and gloves were in use at any time of the year.
In 1922, Victor Marguerite's story "Le Garçon" (the boy) was published, the title of which determined a new trend in fashion.
Style of the 30s. The image of a woman becomes more feminine. She stops at thin crescent-shaped eyebrows, accentuating her mouth. Hairstyle of semi-long hair, sleek, with waves curled outward. But there is another one - on stilettos with a roller of curls raised above the forehead. Dresses are flattering, mid-calf length or slightly longer. The sleeves are raised with the help of hangers, the waist narrows, the skirts expand.

Style of the 50s. Women are modesty itself. Hair is collected in a "ponytail" or made in the form of small banana hairstyles with hairpins, with milled strands. Dresses and coats H - and A-shaped silhouette length to mid-calf. Perlon stockings appeared. Relevant narrow pointed shoes with low heels.
Style of the 60s. The first hippies appear to challenge society. T-shirts with various texts and drawings are popular. The fashion for miniskirts is born (in 1966, Mary Quant appears in this shocking outfit at Buckingham Palace to receive the Order of the British Empire for services to British exports). The image of a woman of the 60s was symbolized by Twiggy - a reed fashion model with a pair of eyelashes glued to her eyes at the same time. The woman is spectacularly made up: eyes with an accentuated eyelid crease and artificial eyelashes, black eyeliner is used. But the lipstick is light, the shadows are too, there are no blushes. Popular bouffant with hairpins, high hairpieces, wigs, asymmetrical semi-long or short haircut with an emphasis on the cape located at the back of the head. Black and white geometric patterns are used in clothing, silver suits are popular. Fashionable length - mini, midi and maxi. They wear flared trousers, wide belts, loosely lying on the hips. Platform shoes appeared, white boots are especially relevant, and hippies have suede boots.
This is a bright woman. Her makeup is catchy, contrasting. Nails must be very long with decorations. Clothing of original silhouettes with a large neckline. She feels good in transparent fabrics with a leopard pattern. The waist is emphasized by a wide tight belt. He wears jewelry in abundance, rhinestones, feather boas. She has a small purse under her arm. On the legs are usually stockings of an unconventional pattern, shoes either with very high heels or with small heels with a glass.
Bodyfashion
Thanks to new materials, it is possible to create products that allow to achieve the effect of nudity. When the elastic material Lycra appeared, another revolution took place in fashion. At first, Lycra clothing, bright and cheerful, was intended for athletes. But then they began to add lycra to cotton, linen, wool, silk. This allowed even everyday clothes to be made super-tight.
This style is characterized by loose clothing in the spirit of the heroes of the first years of aeronautics. Products are sewn from coarse fabrics with numerous sports details. The fabrics look worn.
ballet style
Festive style, in which the dress has a narrow, fitted bodice held on the shoulders by straps; skirt, like a ballet tutu, fluffy.
New look style
The new look, or new look, appeared in 1947, when Christian Dior showed his first collection, stylized antique: long puffy skirts, sleeves gathered at the shoulder and tapering to the wrist. He proposed a new version of the crinoline, a thin waist and a fitted bodice. He stylized clothes under the letters H, X, U, A, etc. Dior said: “We left behind the era of the war of uniforms, labor service for women with broad boxer shoulders. I painted women resembling flowers, gently bulging shoulders , a rounded chest line, liana-like slender waists and wide, diverging downwards, like cups of a flower, skirts.
Linen style
One of the varieties of retro style. Elegant dresses, blouses, sundresses are sewn from thin light fabric (silk, cotton), decorated with satin stitch embroidery, hemstitch, cutwork, lace, fine stitching. This is how lingerie was traditionally decorated, hence the name of such a finish.
Classic style
This style is represented, for example, by the English suit, the Gabrielle Chanel suit and the little black dress. Now jeans have become a classic. In the manufacture of clothes in this style, fabrics with a classic pattern are used: stripes, cages, "chicken foot". The cut is distinguished by simplicity and rigor of execution.
Structural style
Specific design of clothing, which emphasizes the design, shape. The style was determined after the First World War. The design of the clothes is emphasized by special decorative techniques. This was typical, for example, of the Russian folk costume; Nadezhda Lamanova and Alexandra Exter worked in this direction. In the 1950s and 1960s, French designers André Courrèges and Pierre Cardin showed their collections in a constructive style.
space style
Main features: comfortable, familiar clothes, but the fabrics are shiny, and the folds are emphasized with inserts of a material of a different color. Space style appeared in fashion in connection with the flights of Soviet cosmonauts. Shiny fabrics, clear sculptural forms of clothing are the characteristic features of this style. Relevant are silver and golden voluminous luniki jackets, warm boots made of waterproof materials with a rather thick, massive, flat sole.
abundance
Style proposed by Jean Paul Gaultier. You can connect anything and everything. The colors are the brightest. All sorts of lines, volumes and eccentric things, on the verge of kitsch, are acceptable.
Storey style
Storey clothes, or layering - this term has come into use since 1972, when it became fashionable to wear clothes in several layers. At the same time, the old principle - long over short - was replaced by another - short over long. And all the "floors" turned out to be in plain sight: over a loose shirt - a vest, on it is an even shorter jacket or jacket, etc. Kenzo works in the style of layering. He creates a fashion based on the play of colors, different widths and lengths of the components.
pajama style
In this style, the most common items of women's wardrobe: trousers, blouses, jackets, etc., only very spacious, shapeless, perhaps that is why they are considered comfortable. When finishing, large patch pockets are used, quite a lot of buttons - large, flat.
Graffiti
This is the name of one of the styles of youth clothing, a kind of continuation of pop art of the 60s. Summer T-shirts, denim suits are decorated with embroidery or pictures imitating children's drawings, all kinds of texts and inscriptions.
Youth clothes for dance evenings and discos of extravagant forms are made of bright, shiny fabrics, with eye-catching trim.
A style popular in the 1920s and 1930s. It is characterized by such details as glass beads, sequins and feathers on headdresses. Knee length chiffon dress with long fringe. Modern fashion designers have repeatedly returned to this style and are returning.
diffuse style
A mixture of styles, such as an elegant linen-style dress paired with a fringed leather vest in a western style. Or a business jacket over a romantic dress. Another option: sports trousers with a folk style blouse.
Thanks to the discovery of new pure color pigments, the understanding of primary colors has expanded. Previously, there were three of them: red, yellow and blue, and now there are five: red, yellow, blue, green and purple.
The three intermediate, or complementary, colors, which were considered the result of mixing the primary ones, turned out to be the following: orange, green and purple. Now there are five of them: yellow-orange, green-yellow, blue-green, violet-blue and red-violet.
In total, ten colors are obtained: five primary and five intermediate. Among them, you need to choose those that suit a particular person the most.
A little about the terms adopted in relation to color.
Hue is a distinct difference in color (red, green).
Lightness is the proximity of a given color to white. For example: blue is lighter than blue, pink is lighter than red.
Saturation is the degree of density of a color. For example: color blue, cyan, light blue, dark blue.

friend. The concept of "style" is used to characterize a major era in
development of art (painting in the style of impressionism), various
architectural trends (building in the Gothic style), and, finally,
characterizing clothes, we can note a certain commonality of form
expressions (in cut, silhouette, model, fabric texture, etc.) in various
products. This allows us to call them unified in the stylistic decision.
According to the standard classification, there are five basic styles and
several style directions included in these styles.
So, the five main styles are:
Classical
Sports
fantasy
Folklore
Vanguard
And within the framework of each style, there are separate directions. Today we
consider the CLASSIC style and its “micro-styles”, which are now
it is customary to single out separately, (business, English, Chanel and dandy).
Style "Classic"

Models from the spring-summer 2009 collection.
Translated from Latin, the word "classical" means
"first-class, exemplary, belonging to the first category."
Classic is a time-tested style that exists, as it were, outside
time. It is always relevant and relevant almost everywhere - and this is its
the main difference from all other styles. The classic style has no clear
age limits, it suits everyone: from schoolchildren to pensioners. For
clothing within this style.
The motto is "Dear Simplicity". This style is characterized by underlined
restraint, elegance and proportionality, the absence of edgy
elements and non-functional parts. Classics are associated, before
everything, with harmony and beauty. Assumes a sense of proportion in everything: form,
volume, color scheme, decoration, decoration and, of course,
in manners and behaviour.
Decorative elements in the design of classical style clothes are practically
missing. Classic organically combines functional and
aesthetic aspects. Things of the classical style are not striking, but
attract attention with their quality, reliability. Such clothes oblige
to a restrained demeanor, creates a business environment.
However, although the classic is a style for all time, it still obeys
major fashion trends. This mainly concerns the shape of the silhouette,
ways of finishing, choice of fabrics, their colors.
So if you prefer classics to all other styles, then this is not

should get dressed.
The classical style includes, first of all, the costumes of selected
silhouettes:
dress and jacket;
dress and vest;
A variant of an extravagant ensemble in a classic style: a strict jacket,
white or light-colored shirt, straight tight trousers and ... a short skirt from that
the same fabric as the suit, or the same ultra-short sheath dress (but not
Many details in the women's classic style suit are borrowed from
men's clothing, for example: jacket, lapel cuffs, straight trousers with
arrows, a shirt-cut blouse, a reddingot coat, etc.
The classic jacket is a jacket of moderate volume, semi-adjacent
silhouette with darts coming from the shoulder seam or from the armhole and darts
along the waist and chest. The main principle in a jacket is everything according to the figure.
The classic jacket in modern fashion is very tight-fitting (in moderation), with
darts or embossed seams, with or without a cutting barrel, with different
fastener height. The line of the side at the bottom is straight or rounded.
The length of the jacket varies and is determined by fashion. Short
classic jackets or fashionable transformation into a jacket-coat, reaching
to the middle of the calf and completely covering the skirt.
The classic sleeve is one- or two-seam with a tuck on the bulge of the elbow.
Cutouts oval, round.
The hem of the sleeve in classic things is quite high, and the sleeve itself is moderately
narrow. The okat (head) of the sleeve is very round and full. decoration
the sleeve is a slit at the bottom, decorated with a number of buttons, the number
which may vary, but buttons remain a classic option
smaller than the zipper. In modern classics, the sleeve remains
almost completely unchanged, slightly increasing or decreasing the increase in
arm circumference, setting nuanced fashion differences in cut, giving comfort
sleeves in dynamics. In some products, the sleeve rim rises slightly,
a slightly thicker shoulder pad is set, and the shoulder line
becomes more active direct and clear. Classic jacket requires
use of modern adhesive technology in tailoring and at least
small shoulder pads, emphasizing the severity of the cut.
Classic style coat - the same cut as the jacket: straight,
semi-adjacent or adjacent silhouette, with a jacket-shaped collar
or shirt cut, framed pockets, framed with flap,
welt pocket on the chest.
A classic dress will be distinguished by rigor, simplicity, simple
lines along the figure, closeness or with a small cutout. classic
an evening dress is a dress with spaghetti straps (thin) or with
set-in narrow sleeve (less often narrow, tight-fitting raglan or
whole cut).
There is a certain concept of a classic cut - this is a traditional
design with darts on the chest, waist (two in front, two in the back) and
tuck on the bulge of the shoulder blades on the back.
Skirts. Initially, the skirt of the English suit resembled men's trousers -
its length reached the ankle. Subsequently, the skirt was shortened, its length
rose above the middle of the calf.
In modern classics, the skirt varies significantly in length. Now
the most comfortable and loved by modern women is the length up to
or mid-knee.
The shape of the skirt is straight, perhaps slightly flared down, not restrictive.
movement. The skirt should be strict in silhouette and length.
As a rule, the only decoration of the skirt is the vent, located
either in the back seam of the skirt, or in the side, and most often in the front embossed
seam. The vent can be trimmed with a row of buttons, have rounded ends or
folds inside.
In a modern classic suit, the cut of the skirt also becomes more
varied: wrap skirt, skirt with embossed seams, with slits, with
splines, pleated. The top of the skirt can be finished with a stitched belt,
facing, a belt with loops for a belt with various buckles.
Trousers. In connection with the business style, it should be said about the presence of trousers in
vision. Some believe that a trouser suit is quite related to business.
clothes, others - a business woman should not wear it to work.
The severity of the costume is diversified by blouses, peeking collars and cuffs,
which refresh and decorate the costume, giving it a finished look and feel.
femininity.
A classic blouse is a blouse with a collar (often standing-turn-down) or
collarless blouse with a small rounded indentation of the neckline.
A classic suit can be complemented by a blouse-top, turtleneck.
Classic suits with a high fastener can be worn without blouses.
Additions are possible in the form of a scarf around the neck (for example, replacing a blouse).
All elements of clothing - skirts, trousers, blouses - go well with
themselves, they can be grouped depending on the requirements of fashion. Dress
can be combined with a jacket.
Any woman in a classic suit looks elegant, it seems
slimmer and sleeker. A classic suit can perfectly emphasize
dignity and hide the flaws of the figure. Straight skirt slightly longer
knees will emphasize the slimness of the legs, and elongated - on the contrary,
hides imperfectly shaped legs. Jacket of a semi-adjacent silhouette and
an elongated straight skirt will make the figure visually slimmer. In costume,
consisting of straight trousers combined with a cropped jacket, a woman
small stature will appear taller.
Colors characteristic of the classic style: these are ecological colors
nature - greens, cereals, etc. - gray, brown, dark blue,
dark green, burgundy, as well as light shades of beige. Possible
subtle color contrasts. Bright tones and bold color schemes
allowed Restrained colors of your color palette are preferred, with
soft selection of color schemes inside the suit. Despite the obvious
preference in the Russian culture of business clothes in black, I wanted

festive, elegant costumes, fabrics with catchy,
bright pattern. At the same time, types of fabrics can be very different - from
brocade to drape. Recently, for tailoring classic suits have become
use light fabrics with the inclusion of elastic fibers, such fabrics do not
crumple and repeat the figure well.
Classic style shoes are simple, elegant dark-colored shoes on
low (4-6 cm) heels, made of good quality leather and shoes
"boats". Depending on the fashion, the shape of the "nose" and heels can
vary. These shoes go great with any outfit.
Headwear in a classic style is an English hat traditionally
round shape with lace trim, elegant berets, kerchiefs. hats in
classic wardrobe today are not so relevant, as modern
women pay more and more attention to hairstyles. If you decide to pick
hairstyle, remember, the main style mottos should apply to her too! lines
hairstyles should be graphic and - to match the costume!
Particular attention should be paid to accessories: they must be carefully
thought out. The bag must be leather, classic shape:
round, oval, rectangular, square, without excessive pretentiousness.
Modern classic handbags are still the same handbags from the past, but
somewhat larger sizes and more relevant in material. Finishing
handbags are traditional - classic-shaped buckles, traditional clasp.
I also advise you to pay attention to carrying bags as an addition to
classic style. Shoulder bag is an element
sporty style and makes you lift one shoulder, which is why in
suit, the fit may be disturbed. Avoid wearing handbags
shoulder with a classic suit (not to mention briefcases)!
Wallet - certainly expensive, made of good leather; he can be
even more chic (but by no means simpler!) than a bag
Jewelry, choose mainly from precious metals, although
Good quality jewelry is also perfect. But no cheap trinkets
jewelry in the style of folk crafts, etc.! Very embellishes the classic
style concise jewelry: clip-on pearls, gold chains, pearl
necklaces, fine brooches, bracelets. Again, the main rule is
grace and restraint: there should be nothing catchy and pretentious. AND
more: the strict rules of the classics allow you to wear no more than three elements
jewelry at the same time.
So that a dark outfit does not look boring, you can complement it with various
accessories of a brighter color than the suit, only on the condition that
all of them should be combined with each other in color and style. Pick up
a bright neckerchief or scarf that matches your costume, stylish
belt, put on beautiful shoes and jewelry - and a strict outfit is right there
turn into an elegant festive. As for scarves and scarves,
there are many ways to use them for costume design.
If you master this skill, you can easily change your appearance
view, just by tying the scarf in a different way.
For classic style makeup, the same rule applies as for
clothing, namely moderation. Classic makeup should be
almost imperceptible - no flashy tones, catchy colors.
Hairstyle must be neat, hair - well-groomed and
Hairstyles, the most characteristic of the classics - "ponytail",
"shell", a knot at the back of the head and, no loose hair and curly
A perfume that matches the classic style should have a light,
unobtrusive aroma. Tart, spicy, rich floral and fruity
smells will not fit the classic outfit. And by no means should
use cheap perfumes - this will spoil the whole impression of
created image.
Elegance and strict chic of the classics, does not tolerate the presence, whatever
there was no catchy, pretentious and frankly cheap - even in small things.
Impeccable sophistication requires thoughtfulness of the image up to
the smallest details, such as manicure, perfume, and even a hair clip
must meet the requirements of the style.
The classic style is indispensable for the office, as it is strict,
restraint and sets up a business mood. And with his constant style

stability and not loving experiments on their appearance. Such people,
as a rule, they are distinguished by seriousness, restrained demeanor, not
they like to attract the attention of others, therefore they do not accept catchy
colors and extravagant solutions in clothing and make-up.

Classic style makes a woman look more formal,
restrained, determined and competent.
Style is an expression of the inner qualities of a person, a personal manner of performing . Harmonious style should fully coincide with the internal state of a person. And, as Yves Saint Laurent said, fashion passes, style is eternal.
Style carries certain personality characteristics. If you want to succeed in creating an image, you must be stylish in the direct sense of the term and, of course, form your own unique look, taking into account the stylistic secrets of the clothes you wear.
Style- the unity of the image, where the form and content do not contradict each other. The concept of " style" is used to characterize a major era in the development of art (impressionist painting), various architectural trends (Gothic style building), and, finally, characterizing clothing, we can note a certain commonality of the form of expression (in cut, silhouette, model, fabric texture etc.) in various products. This allows us to call them unified in the stylistic decision.
According to the standard classification, there are five basic styles and several style directions included in these styles.
So, the five main styles are:
- Classical
- Sports
- fantasy
- Folklore
- Vanguard
And within the framework of each style, there are separate directions. Today we will look at CLASSICAL style and his micro styles“, which are now customary to single out separately, (business, English, Chanel and dandy).
Style "Classic"
Translated from Latin, the word classical"means" first-class, exemplary, first class«.
Classic is a time-tested style that seems to exist out of time. It is always relevant and appropriate almost everywhere - and this is its main difference from all other styles. The classic style has no clear age limits, it suits everyone: from schoolchildren to pensioners. For each age category, of course, different styles of clothing are offered within this style.
The motto is "Dear Simplicity". This style is characterized by underlined restraint, elegance and proportionality, the absence of trendy elements and non-functional details. Classics is associated, first of all, with harmony and beauty. It implies a sense of proportion in everything: form, volume, colors, decoration, decoration and, of course, in manners and behavior.
Decorative elements in the design of classical style clothing are practically absent. Classic organically combines functional and aesthetic aspects. Things of the classical style are not striking, but attract attention with their quality and reliability. Such clothes oblige to a restrained demeanor, creates a business environment.
However, although the classic is a style for all time, it still obeys the main trends of fashion. This mainly concerns the shape of the silhouette, the methods of finishing, the choice of fabrics, their colors.
So if you prefer classics to all other styles, this does not mean that you do not need to follow fashion trends. Although the fashion for classic things does not change as quickly as in other styles. So you can wear your favorite suit for more than one season without fear that its style is outdated.
The classic outfit is universal: you can wear it to work, to the theater, to a celebration - and everywhere you will look great and according to the occasion. This is a real "lifesaver" for those cases when, going to some event, you do not know how to dress.
The classic style includes, first of all, costumes of selected silhouettes:
- jacket and skirt combined with a blouse;
- dress and jacket;
- dress and vest;
- troika: dress, vest and jacket; pants, blouse and jacket.
A variant of an extravagant ensemble in a classic style: strict jacket, white or light-colored shirt, straight tight trousers or a short skirt made of the same fabric as the suit, or the same ultra-short sheath dress (but not mini).
Many details in a classic style women's suit are borrowed from men's clothing, for example: a jacket, lapel lapels, straight trousers with arrows, a shirt-cut blouse, a reddingot coat, etc.
Classic jacket- this is a jacket of moderate volume, semi-adjacent silhouette with darts coming from the shoulder seam or from the armhole and darts along the waist and chest. The main principle in a jacket is everything according to the figure.
The classic jacket in modern fashion is very tight-fitting (in moderation), with darts or embossed seams, with or without a detachable barrel, with different zipper heights. The line of the side at the bottom is straight or rounded.
The length of the jacket varies and is determined by fashion. Short classic jackets or a fashionable transformation into a jacket-coat, reaching to the middle of the calf and completely covering the skirt, are possible.
The classic sleeve is one- or two-seam with a tuck on the bulge of the elbow. Cutouts oval, round.
The collar of the sleeve in classic clothes is quite high, and the sleeve itself is moderately narrow. The okat (head) of the sleeve is very round and full. The decoration of the sleeve is a slot at the bottom, decorated with a number of buttons, the number of which may vary, but the classic option is smaller buttons than on the fastener. In modern classics, the sleeve remains almost completely unchanged, the increase in arm circumference slightly increases or decreases, setting nuanced fashionable differences in cut, which make the sleeves comfortable in dynamics. In some products, the sleeve hem rises slightly, the shoulder pad is set a little thicker, and the shoulder line becomes more active, straight and clear. A classic jacket requires the use of modern adhesive technology and at least small shoulder pads that emphasize the severity of the cut.
Coat classic style - the same cut as the jacket: straight, semi-adjacent or adjacent silhouette, with a jacket-shaped collar or shirt cut, framed pockets, framed pockets with a flap, a leaflet pocket on the chest.
classic dress will be distinguished by rigor, simplicity, simple lines along the figure, closeness or with a small cutout. The classic dress of the evening version is a dress with straps (thin) or with a set-in narrow sleeve (less often narrow, tight-fitting raglan or one-piece).
There is a certain concept classic fit- this is a traditional design with darts on the chest, waist (two in front, two in the back) and a dart for the bulge of the shoulder blades on the back.
Skirts. Initially, the skirt of the English costume resembled men's trousers - its length reached the ankle. Subsequently, the skirt was shortened, its length rose above the middle of the calf.
In modern classics, the skirt varies significantly in length. Now the length just below and just above the knee can be considered classic, but the most comfortable and loved by modern women is the length to or the middle of the knee.
Skirt shape- straight, perhaps slightly flared downwards, not restricting movement. The skirt should be strict in silhouette and length.
As a rule, the only decoration of the skirt is a slot, located either in the back seam of the skirt, or in the side, and most often in the front relief seam. The slot can be trimmed with a number of buttons, have rounded ends or folds inside.
In a modern classic suit, the cut of the skirt also becomes more diverse: a skirt with a wrap, a skirt with embossed seams, with cuts, with slots, in a pleat. The top of the skirt can be processed with a stitched belt, facing, a belt with loops for a belt with various buckles.
Trousers. In connection with the business style, it should be said about the presence of trousers in a classic suit. Here we have to deal with two points of view. Some believe that a trouser suit is quite related to business clothes, others - a business woman should not wear it to work.
The severity of the suit is diversified by blouses, peeking collars and cuffs that refresh and decorate the suit, giving it a finished look and femininity.
Classic blouse- This is a blouse with a collar (usually standing-turn-down) or a blouse without a collar with a small rounded indentation of the neckline.
A classic suit can be complemented by a blouse-top, turtleneck. Classic suits with a high fastener can be worn without blouses. Additions are possible in the form of a scarf around the neck (for example, replacing a blouse).
All elements of clothing - skirts, trousers, blouses - are well combined with each other, they can be grouped depending on fashion requirements. The dress can be combined with a jacket.
Any woman in a classic suit looks elegant, seems slimmer and more graceful. A classic suit is able to perfectly emphasize the dignity and hide the flaws of the figure. A straight skirt with a length just above the knees will emphasize the slimness of the legs, and an elongated one, on the contrary, will hide imperfectly shaped legs. A jacket with a semi-adjacent silhouette and an elongated straight skirt will make the figure visually slimmer. In a suit consisting of straight trousers combined with a cropped jacket, a woman of small stature will appear taller.
Colors characteristic of the classical style: these are the ecological colors of nature - greenery, cereals, etc. - gray, brown, dark blue, dark green, burgundy, as well as light shades of beige. Subtle color contrasts are possible. Bright colors and bold color schemes are not allowed Discreet colors of your color palette are preferred, with a soft selection of color schemes inside the suit. Despite the obvious preference in the Russian culture for business clothes in black, I would like to pay attention to the psychological characteristics of its perception and recommend abandoning pure black in business clothes, replacing it with blue-black. This recommendation does not apply to black toilets for official receptions according to existing etiquette.
Most often, the colors of the fabric are plain or with a simple geometric pattern: a cage, a thin strip, a “chicken foot”. However, for sewing festive, elegant costumes, fabrics with a catchy, bright pattern can also be used. At the same time, the types of fabrics can be very different - from brocade to drape. Recently, light fabrics with the inclusion of elastic fibers have been used for tailoring classic suits; such fabrics do not wrinkle and repeat the figure well.
Shoes classic style - these are simple elegant dark-colored shoes with low (4-6 cm) heels, made of good quality leather and pumps. Depending on the fashion, the shape of the "nose" and heels may vary. These shoes go great with any outfit.
Hats in a classic style - this is an English hat of a traditionally round shape with lace trim, elegant berets, scarves. Hats in a classic wardrobe are not so relevant today, as modern women pay more and more attention to hairstyles. If you decide to choose a hairstyle, remember that the main style mottos should apply to her! Hairstyle lines should be graphic and - to match the costume!
Particular attention should be paid accessories: they must be carefully considered. The bag must be leather, classic shape: round, oval, rectangular, square, without excessive pretentiousness. Modern classic handbags are the same handbags from the past, but somewhat larger and more relevant in material. The finishing of handbags is traditional - classic-shaped buckles, traditional clasp. I also advise you to pay attention to carrying bags as an addition to the classic style. A bag worn over the shoulder is an element of sporty style and causes one shoulder to rise, which may cause the fit to be disturbed in the suit. Avoid wearing handbags on your shoulder with a classic suit (not to mention briefcases)!
Wallet- certainly expensive, made of good leather; it can be even more luxurious (but by no means simpler!) than a bag
Jewelry choose mainly from precious metals, although high-quality jewelry is also quite suitable. But no cheap trinkets, handicrafts, etc.! The classic style is very decorated with laconic jewelry: pearl clips, gold chains, pearl necklaces, elegant brooches, bracelets. The main rule, again, remains elegance and restraint: there should not be anything catchy and pretentious. And one more thing: the strict rules of the classics allow you to wear no more than three elements of jewelry at the same time.
So that a dark outfit does not look boring, you can complement it with various accessories of a brighter color than a suit, only with the condition that they all must be combined in color and style. Choose a bright neckerchief or scarf that matches your costume, a stylish belt, put on beautiful shoes and jewelry - and a strict outfit will immediately turn into an elegant festive one. As for scarves and scarves, there are many ways to use them to decorate a costume. If you master this skill, you can easily change your appearance, just by tying a scarf in a different way.
For makeup in the classic style, the same rule applies as for clothes, namely moderation. Classic makeup should be almost invisible - no flashy tones, catchy colors.
Hairstyle, must be certainly neat, hair - well-groomed and styled. The same principle applies here: simplicity and elegance. Hairstyles, the most characteristic of the classics, are ponytail, shell, knot at the back of the head and no loose hair and curly curls.
perfume, corresponding to the classical style, should have a light, unobtrusive aroma. Tart, spicy, rich floral and fruity scents will not go well with a classic outfit. And in no case should you use cheap perfumes - this will spoil the whole impression of the created image.
The elegance and strict chic of the classics does not tolerate the presence of anything catchy, pretentious and frankly cheap - even in small things. Impeccable sophistication requires thoughtfulness of the image down to the smallest detail, such as manicure, perfume, and even a hair clip must meet the style requirements.
The classic style is indispensable for the office, as it is distinguished by rigor, restraint and sets up a businesslike mood. And for their permanent style, classics are most often chosen by conservatives, who value stability most of all and do not like experiments with their appearance. Such people, as a rule, are distinguished by their seriousness, restrained demeanor, do not like to attract the attention of others, therefore they do not accept flashy colors and extravagant decisions in clothing and makeup.

This is the style of people of intellectual labor, employees of various institutions: politicians, leaders, managers, secretaries, teachers, lawyers, tax inspectors, etc.
Classic style allows a woman to look more formal, restrained, determined and competent.
According to the criterion of participation of employees in management, the following styles are distinguished.
Dictatorial style: employees are forced to follow strict one-man orders under the threat of sanctions;
Autocratic style: the manager has an extensive apparatus at his disposal;
Benevolent (supportive) style: the authority of the manager is based on his personal positive qualities, in which employees are confident.
Democratic (cooperative, solidary, collegial or participatory) style as a typical form includes various options:
Communication style: employees can express their opinions, but must ultimately follow orders;
Consultative style: the manager makes a decision only on the basis of the Detailed information and after its joint discussion, the employees implement the decisions in the development of which they participated, they were consulted;
Collaborative management style: the manager sets the problem and limits, the employees themselves decide on further actions, the manager reserves the right to veto;
Autonomous style: employees decide for themselves, they are not limited by the framework, control and responsibility remain with the manager.
Management can be carried out in various forms. Violence, coercion, order correspond to the authoritarian style. It is associated with the hierarchical division of the control system and the pyramidal forms of its construction. Such an objective prerequisite for the authoritarian style does not exclude a change in its strength depending on the position of the leader's personality and his role as the leader of the organization. In this case, there are different types of styles.
Management through influence and reliance on employees determines the democratic style. When employees are left to their own devices, management is marked by a liberal style. Forms of management have not developed specifically for use in industry or other industries. They arose as a result of social situations that developed at different times.
When classifying styles according to the criterion of managerial functions, only the predominance of one of the management functions is taken into account, situational and other factors remain unaccounted for. With this classification, the concept of style is closely related to the concept of management.
Management through innovation. This leadership style emphasizes an orientation towards innovation as the main vector of managerial decisions (innovation management).
Management through motivation. Managers proceed from the fact that not only material incentives have a positive effect on the employee's work efficiency, but also the need for self-expression.
Management through coordination. At the heart of this style is the reduction of conflict by coordinating personal areas of activity. The manager trusts employees to make decisions related to the tasks they perform. The intervention of the manager occurs only in exceptional situations, for example, if an employee deviates from the fixed acceptable limits.
Management through task transfer. With this style, the delegation of authority and business responsibility associated with tasks is in the foreground, the motivation of employees increases, and the manager's workload decreases.
Management through a systematic approach. This style emphasizes the cybernetic control cycle, rational discipline and systematization of the control process.
In management practice, a one-factor method of analyzing styles is used according to the priority severity of one management function.

What is a clothing style and why is it important to find your own?
To begin with, let's try to define what a style of clothing is.
So, the style of clothing is a certain set of features by which many things, sets and clothes, as such, can be divided into certain categories or types.

business style
Business or classic style is characterized by restraint and conciseness, high quality and a certain basicity. Clothing of this style is especially good for teachers and office workers, scientific conferences and meetings.
The classic style does not accept the introduction of fleeting trends, such as a choker, crop top, ruffles, etc., as well as bright colors and defiant prints. Black, gray, beige, dark blue - this is the range of this stylistic direction. Simple cut and simplicity of details, stability and moderate modesty.

Casual (Casual)
Casual (casual) is perhaps one of the most popular stylistic trends among most fashionistas from around the world. No wonder that in translation it sounds like “everyday”.

This style will be appreciated by lovers of convenience and owners of a rebellious spirit, those who want to take a break from everyday tinsel and just enjoy life without worrying about protruding threads or a hairstyle spoiled by the wind.

Eclecticism
You have probably seen photos from street style at least once during the fashion week, and so most often you can meet representatives of the eclectic style on them.
What he really is? Eclecticism is a combination of the incongruous, these are sports trousers and high-heeled shoes, this is a down jacket and shorts, this is a T-shirt and a turtleneck. It would seem that going out into the street in such an absurd outfit, you would immediately want to fall into the ground. Therefore, true lovers of eclecticism are always brave people who do not pay attention to the opinions and views of others.

Definitely this style is for courageous and self-confident girls, as well as very athletic and fit, as it still implies the presence of a chiseled figure so that the image looks harmonious, and not comical.
Tops and dresses made of silk and lace, thin sliding fabrics and deep necklines - all this is inherent in the lingerie style. Tops and dresses made of silk and lace, thin sliding fabrics and deep necklines - all this is inherent in the lingerie style.
