Leather and velvet dresses, floral prints, fringes and unexpected cutouts, haute couture embroidery and lace - designers explore the edges of femininity in stylish aristocratic looks. Look for the answer to the question "What are the fashionable dresses of the autumn-winter 2017-2018 season" in our review.

The 21st century turned out to be difficult for all modern dress codes - White Tie can only be found at receptions with the Queen, and the usual rules of Black Tie have undergone transformations. At the same time, metallics and velvets have been keeping up with us for several seasons, and sequins, rhinestones and sequins are found even in such pillars of minimalism as Jil Sander and Calvin Klein Collection. Keeping up with the trends in the modern fashion world is not difficult if you read our fashion columns (NLP trainers, are we asking for a raise?).

Velvet dresses

In the fashion world, velvet dresses have become synonymous with effortless bohemian chic. Moderately sexy and luxurious evening classics will always be greeted with a bang. But top designers are able to make even velvet a fabric for everyday life, without diminishing its beauty.

How to collect a bouquet of applause from fashion critics? Wear a fashionable velvet dress from the Elisabetta Franchi fall-winter 2017-2018 collection and complement it with sophisticated cuff bracelets decorated with large rhinestones and classic midi pumps. A peach-colored belt and a small clutch with a gold chain will set the accents.

The perfectly matched color of velvet is your pass to the ranking of the most stylish. Our favorite is Erdem's lavender floral print bustier dress. Since the outfit itself will become the accent of the evening look, opt for concise accessories. Complete the look with boots in blue and gold.

Leather dresses

If in your youth you sinned with the image of an informal person, it's time to remember the past. Joke. In the autumn-winter 2017-2018 fashion season, the privilege of leather items is given not only to goths, rock vocalists and cool bikers. Although we are sure (and as the latest collections of designers show - not only us), that in the fall it's time to retrain from a delicate flower to that biker's girl. Show off your wild side with a leather dress in navy blue, black or brown. In terms of attracting attention, the thing is defiant, so combine it with minimalistic details.

red dresses

Thanks to Coco Chanel for inventing a versatile little black dress that allows you to talk about its owner as a stylish woman with excellent taste. But what to do in cases when the “pink” part of the soul asks to break out? Get into all the hard stuff! Pink, fiery red, burgundy, magenta - even the simplest business look will sparkle with new colors if you add a thing of a juicy shade.

When you think of dresses, reds stand out on the wish list. They are cool enough to want, but also too dangerous to wear often. The edition of You in Fashion destroys stereotypes and teaches you not to get out of such a bold element of the wardrobe.

Rule number 1. Think of a red dress as casual. Yes, sometimes it is enough to shift the focus of attention. Put on a fashionable fiery thing in any incomprehensible situation! In the office - a closed woolen dress, for a walk - a cotton midi, for a meeting with friends - a jacquard mini. Well, why not a universal wardrobe item? A red dress is a great basis for an evening outfit. Landmark - fashion creations of Pamella Roland and Valentino from the collections of autumn-winter 2017-2018. Laconic jewelry, a small clutch, strict pumps - and the image for Friday evening is ready.

Rule number 2. Dare for a monochrome look. Red dress, red coat, red lingerie, red lipstick, BUT an impressive gold earring and shoes with an extraordinary print to make the look interesting.

But if monochrome is too bold for you, neutralize the fiery shade with beige, and preferably pink.

During the autumn-winter season, it’s time to ask for a climate refuge somewhere in sunny Goa: warm wind, dazzling sun, fresh vegetables (there is something to decorate the Instagram feed). But we are not one of those, if that. We carry our burden courageously and steadfastly, and therefore we remain for the winter. To cheer up, we recommend everything warmer (hot chocolate too). But first of all - a warm woolen dress, which is suitable for a feast, and for the world, and with friends for a Sabbath party. Stylish options were demonstrated at the Fall-Winter 2017-2018 Fashion Week by Brock Collection and Ryan Roche.

It's time to stop spontaneous purchases like dresses for one evening and shoes with cosmic heels, which have absolutely nothing to wear with (and uncomfortable in today's pace of life). Let's go in search of your style, because in every store there is such a thing that will definitely fit into your business image.

Task number 1. Understand whether you are a pear or an apple pineapple in order to decide which silhouettes to initially focus on and which ones to be afraid of like fire (or put on carefully, preferably with a fire extinguisher). If it’s difficult to decide on the type of figure, ask your friends for help (only those who will honestly lay everything out in the eyes, without any reservations). As a last resort, look at celebrities whose figure is close to yours. Like Angelina Jolie or Bella Hadid, say.

Task number 2. Decide on the color of your dress for the office. Givenchy, for example, tends to red, Christian Dior - to dark blue, and Valentino - to colorful prints.

If you're looking to buy a trendy office dress for fall-winter 2017-2018, take a look at the latest creations from Red Valentino and Christian Dior.

Satin dresses

How to unleash the stylist in yourself and not get depressed? Saturated, mysterious and rich colors should prevail in the autumn-winter wardrobe: crimson, dark blue, burgundy, gold. Textures should also be aristocratic. In addition to velvet and jacquard, pay attention to satin, a natural silk fabric created with unique craftsmanship.

Fashionable satin dresses by Krizia or Simon Miller will successfully emphasize your graceful silhouette and radiant skin. And let your happy eyes be responsible for sexuality in the image.

Trend: liquid metal

Brilliant is not always synonymous with bad taste. It's time to oust the defiant T-shirts of classmates or your first mother-of-pearl shadows from memory. It is worth having the courage to hang a fashionable metallic dress in the closet (or better, put it on right away) and a little imagination to combine it with other elements of the wardrobe.

The perfectly matched color of the outfit looks like liquid metal - you can’t take your eyes off, you can’t take away the compliments. Silver in combination with white and blue, if it does not turn into a queen, then it will definitely add a seasoned rigor to the image. It is important not to overdo it, but if you suddenly couldn’t resist, behave like a representative of the royal family.

Chose platinum glitter? Pair it with black and you can't go wrong. You will be a winter girl, strong and impregnable. However, everything is decided not only by the color of the dress, but also by the style - the combination looks incredibly sexy.

Floral print

Floral print is a classic that flows from season to season. Only his performance changes. In autumn, flowers of saturated colors should be not only at your feet, but also in your wardrobe. You look at romantic dresses and involuntarily remember Guns N’ Roses with their “Don’t you cry tonight I still love you baby”. But we know that big girls don't cry, and even more so in such luxurious dresses. Fashionable translucent dress with floral appliqués from Zac Posen will fit perfectly into a romantic setting. Pale pink with ethnic motifs from Red Valentino is a great option for both the office and meeting with friends.

Ruffles, flounces, frills

Designers are so persistent in bringing flounces, ruffles and frills into the number of fashion trends that we involuntarily catch ourselves thinking: wouldn't it be time for us to become a little more feminine?

So we're taking a radical approach. Forgot about the smooth edges of the dresses: only flounces and waves. On cuffs and collar, sleeves and hem. We follow the only rule: the more waves, the better - let's make a storm and rock this ship! Landmark - fashionable dresses autumn-winter 2017-2018 J.Mendel and Kitx.

Lace dresses

To survive the rapid transition from summer to autumn, don't change your habits: wear deep V-necks and sexy slits, wear fine lace and soft silk. Just when leaving the house, do not forget to throw a knitted cardigan or a trendy coat over your shoulders (autumn, after all).

A fashionable lace dress by Ermanno Scervino or Kate Spade will perfectly fit into your idea of ​​femininity. Mix not only colors, but also textures. Cashmere + silk + lace, wool + lace - high and low get along perfectly in one outfit, saving you from the blues. We are sure that such a decision will help to pacify your inner demon, which insists on packing your suitcase and going very far (in the sense of New Zealand and other warm corners of the planet).

Fringe

At a dance party, a fashionable fringe dress will make you stand out from the medley of silver sequins. Exaggerated fringe in tandem with asymmetrical unexpected cutouts inspires disco break every now and then. We are sure that Erin Fetherston's fringed dress, clinging to everyone, will provoke pleasant acquaintances.

Pleated dresses

Be feminine. Just because we're pushing you to stick to layering doesn't mean you can put on pants and a sweatshirt and wander down the promenade with a sad expression on your face (isn't it always sad there?). Wear trendy pleated dresses and high heels (the sadder you are, the higher the heel). Before you wake up, spring is back with denim shorts and crop tops.

Wild West

Without a cowboy theme in the new fashion season, nowhere. And we are not only talking about hats and leather boots, but also about long dresses of representatives of wealthy families. With this outfit, natural makeup looks great. And if you can't hone your Nude Look makeup skills, here are our tips to help: Forget heavy foundations, shimmery eyeshadows, and other sparkly cosmetics. Your goal is a fresh look, and for this, BB cream, blush in natural tones, powder, mascara (a must have!), Black or brown pencil and pastel shades of lip gloss are enough. Everything!

Chiffon dresses

Simplicity of cut, natural fabric, high-quality tailoring - if not all, but most of your wardrobe should meet these criteria. Do you want to look stylish and, importantly, expensive? Combine chiffon dresses with loose silhouettes with brutal boots or high boots. Remember: things in rich tones (burgundy, copper brown, greenery) look great with nude shades. Trumps for creating the appearance of status - luxury jewelry.

Have you noticed that all the top brands release chiffon dresses four times a year, which means in every collection (and often completely translucent)? There is only one conclusion from this: no one cancels a well-groomed figure. Do not believe those who say that a slim body is difficult. We recommend using Maya Plisetskaya's diet "Don't sit still!" (just kidding: you can just not overeat and not abuse easily digestible carbohydrates), enjoy hiking, set aside time for morning exercises (there are many videos on the Internet that demonstrate how to keep yourself in good physical shape in 10 minutes a day), include in your daily diet more vegetables and fruits, be constantly busy. Believe me, at this pace, thoughts about excess weight (however, like excess weight) will disappear on their own. And you will show off in a fashionable chiffon dress without remorse.

Patchwork

And for dessert, pancake. Excuse me, patchwork (for a moment we forgot that we are preparing the body for the sea). Even if you have more gray and black pieces in your wardrobe, we are almost sure that your heart will tremble at the sight of a trendy patchwork dress. And right away you want to buy it, even if you have no idea where to put it on. And you can go anywhere: for a romantic date, and for a walk, and to the office, and to the opening of the exhibition.

And finally: We don't want to disappoint you, but it's not the label on the dress that primarily determines the "expensiveness" of your appearance. Trite or not, but the basis of a good impression is fresh hair and attractive styling. Be always well-groomed!

Carefully think over the image, striving to always be stylish, elegant and feminine - choose beautiful dresses in the new season, guided by current fashion trends and advice from famous designers!

The dress is the favorite clothing of modern fashionistas. Long or short, made of delicate flowing fabrics or materials with a rough texture, plain or decorated with exclusive handmade decor - it is the dress that sets the main style of the image, emphasizing the dignity of the female figure and successfully hiding minor flaws. A properly selected dress, complemented by stylish accessories, can tell a lot about its mistress, emphasizing the presence of style, beauty and success.

Fashion trends for dresses in the season 2017-2018

What should be the dress of a fashionista in 2017-2018? The couturier's opinion on this matter is ambiguous. In search of fresh ideas and unique images, the masters of haute couture took radically different paths, as a result of which collections of the most diverse styles were presented on the catwalks, from restrained always up-to-date classics to bright and cheerful models in the style of modern youth fashion.

Lagerfeld offers girls in 2017 and 2018 unusual summer dresses made in a unique patchwork technique. The Fendi 2017-2018 collection provides a huge selection of models with stylish quilting and patchwork details. The designer did not limit the color palette of his creations and created many stylish dresses both in restrained classic colors (prevailing shades: black, brown, white, beige) and in bright cheerful colors.

Jean Paul Gaultier decided to dress women in light, flowing dresses in 2017-2018 and offered fashionistas a large selection of models for the summer that combine sexuality and chic. At the same time, the designer recommends choosing bright accessories for plain outfits, while dresses with prints and decorative elements, in his opinion, do not need additional accents that can overload the image.

Christian Dior in the 2017-2018 season will be associated with femininity, tenderness and sophistication, because the magnificent evening dresses created by Maria Grazia Chiuri are designed to emphasize harmony, grace and youth in a girl. At the heart of the models are airy fabrics, as if flowing with a weightless cloud, richly decorated with exquisite embroidery, floral prints and unusual decorative elements.

ElieSaab invites everyone to a party in the style of the 60s, because his star dresses, which promise to become incredibly popular in 2018, are chic and sexy in retro style! Fashion often looks into grandmother's chest. This time, the famous designer found in it scatterings of multi-colored stars, flowing fabrics in gold, silver and dark gray, as well as stylish leather elements.

Givenchy chose two directions for the autumn-winter 2017-2018 season: classic black and extravagant check. At the same time, black models amaze with a complex cut and variety of decor, while checkered dresses gravitate toward strict lines and fitted silhouettes.

The designers of the fashion house Firdaws proved that an oriental woman can look no less bright and stylish, while remaining true to the laws of her culture. The collection of evening dresses from Aishat Kadyrova is sure to please connoisseurs of oriental style, because the designer offers sophisticated and at the same time luxurious female looks, using exclusive embroidery, rhinestones, pearls and handmade textile elements as decor.

Fashion models of dresses of the season 2017-2018

High fashion sets the main trends of the season, which are successfully interpreted by inexpensive clothing designers in stylish and affordable models. In the autumn-winter 2017-2018 season, it is worth replenishing your wardrobe by buying fashionable dresses of different types:

1. Owners of slender legs can afford a short dress. This year, the combination of a short mini-dress and a long raincoat made of dense and functional or light and translucent fabric will be especially relevant.

2. A mid-length dress is always an up-to-date classic. The optimal length for an image in a business style. It is important to consider that in 2018 it is recommended to dilute the severity of lines with interesting accessories. So, stylish scarves and hats will help to make summer business attire more feminine, and in the cold season, a classic dress can be combined with an original fur vest.

@maryorton

Designers in 2018 did not forget about donuts. Girls with shapes can easily find interesting models in their favorite colors.

It can be stated that the absolute trend of 2018 will be floral print and floral embroidery. The most unusual idea of ​​the designers, which promises to harmoniously merge into the fashion trend, was the uniform design style of the dress and the bag, which looks very beautiful and unusual.

Which fashion dress did you like the most?We look forward to your comments!

The most versatile item in a woman's wardrobe is the dress. In it, girls and women feel confident and attractive. The dress can be worn even in everyday life, even for a date or an important event. It can be worn with sneakers, boats, scarves, jeans, vests and other attributes. It all depends on the preferred style, the season and the occasion for which it was decided to use this type of clothing.

Therefore, designers from year to year try to surprise the fairer sex. What did they come up with this time? Find out now in this article.

Open and nude dresses

Designers apparently do not want to come to terms with the fact that autumn is coming soon. Their outfits have a maximum of open body. For tailoring dresses, they used chiffon, tulle, nets and lace. Fashion houses such as Christian Dior, Fendi and Chloe have managed to adapt this trend for office workers, as well as for everyday life.

Some designers have decided to go even further. They came up with dresses that are on the verge of vulgarity and high fashion. Most often, these are transparent outfits, under which they wear tight-fitting underwear. In dresses from fashion designer Elie Saab, the chest is covered with thin flounces. Also, a lot of transparent outfits were sewn by designers, where only the bust and causal places are hidden by dense inserts or various patterns.

In such nude dresses, black is actively exploited. It will be fashionable this season.

Slip dresses

Most often, this outfit is sewn from light fabric (satin, silk). Recently, a slip dress has begun to be worn over a light turtleneck or sweater, as well as a blouse or T-shirt. In this combination, you can get a top bow. And if you combine a short nightgown with a skirt, it will become even more relevant.

Velvet dresses

Outfits from this material migrated from last season. Then everything was made of velvet, from dresses to accessories.

An unconditional trend is long models in the floor of dark shades of blue, wine and green. True fashionistas will be very happy that now velvet can be worn not only on holidays.

Designers Christian Dior and Antonio Marras have released casual looks. Now velvet dresses can be worn in everyday life at work. Outfits from Prabal Gurng and Antonio Marras will harmoniously fit into the office dress code.

Some designers have added a V-neckline to the velvet dress. It would definitely be difficult to call such an image old-fashioned. Altuzarra and Elisabetta Franchi took care of that.

Satin dresses

Atlas loses to previous materials. It does not sit well on the figure and quickly wrinkles. But the designers still decided to take a chance and use this material in their collections. Fashion designers have found the use of satin for everyday models in linen style in pastel colors.

Dresses with fur trim

Now fur can be found not only on outerwear, but also on dresses. There are many "fur" solutions from Osman, David Koma, Elisabetta Franchi and Haider Ackerman. They used fur at the bottom of the hem or sheathed the hem of the outfit completely. Armani and Au Jour Le Jour added fur boas to the outfits. With a strap, they can be thrown over one shoulder, wrapped around the neck or fastened around the shoulders.

Flounces and ruffles

It looks very feminine on a weak field of frills, flounces and ruffles. Such outfits hide flaws and add roundness to the forms. In a dress with ruffles and flounces in the autumn, they will make the mood playful and laid-back.

With the onset of cold weather, there is not enough sun, and such an outfit will help to cope with depression. Designers decorated dresses in different ways: some with 2-3 flounces and ruffles, and some with 3-4 rows.

Bustier dress

Girls with small breasts should definitely add this outfit to their wardrobe. It is best to buy a dress with a classic cut in a bright color with a discreet decor. The length of the outfit can be any. With a different combination of shoes and accessories, it is suitable both for everyday life and for going to an important event.

Dress with trousers

This trend was popular in the early 2000s. Designers Armani, Christian Siriano and Monse seem to have agreed and presented the public with bright tunic dresses with tight pants. To repeat the look from the catwalk, you need to purchase a dark dress and put on leggings or tight pants underneath.

Dresses with predatory print

This season, designers have worked hard on dresses with leopard and snake prints. This is one of the frequently recurring trends. But in order to look harmonious in a dress with a predatory print, you need to choose the right style and material of the outfit. This trend was inspired by Dolce & Gabbana, Michael Kors, Balmain and Andrew Gn.

They have created a huge collection of outfits ranging from casual and office to evening dresses for going out. This season, not only the usual prints of predators - yellow and black, but also dark green, scarlet and emerald shades will be in fashion.

Some designers decided to stand out and use sequins to imitate leopard spots and zebra stripes. The end result is very stylish.

Dresses with flowers

For several seasons in a row, both in winter and summer, dresses with various floral prints have not lost their relevance. No one wants to part with the summer warmth even now. Dresses with various colors, ranging from daisies and peonies to field buttercups, will continue to conquer the female half of society.

After all, this outfit is suitable for any outing. It is only important to choose more restrained dresses with a discreet pattern for work and study, and options with bright motifs for going on a date or relaxing. The children's application has jumped into fashion. Now Nicole Miller, Blumarie and Au Jour Le Jour sew individual flowers onto their dresses.

Delicate outfits and unusual floral patterns will please Alberta Ferretti and Brock Collection. With such dresses it is definitely difficult to be sad.

Polka dot dresses

Even women in the 80s and 90s appreciated polka dot dresses. And we can't forget them. Fashion designers this season did not experiment much with color, but left the black and white gamut. Only the size of the peas can change a lot.

Fashion designers Andrew Gn and Zimmermann found the traditional pattern too simple. Therefore, they decided to add flounces with ruffles to the outfits and combined peas of different sizes.

Dresses with metallic effect

The designers decided to create a little holiday for the female half and showed dresses of cold silver shades and noble gold colors. "Metal" outfits were presented for the most part in classic styles.

Single fashion designers presented something extraordinary. The Saint Lauren collection has models with a traditional club mini. These are outfits with a non-standard cut or with bright sequins. These outfits do not require any additional accessories.

Silver is most often associated with winter, and gold outfits are closer to autumn. If you add additional elements to the cut, then dresses in the color of noble metal will look beautiful on a girl. Picking up shoes for such an outfit is not difficult.

Leather dresses

Various shades, colors and interpretations of leather are now in fashion. Outfits from this material were presented by such fashion designers: Alexander Makvin, David Koma and Michael Kors.

In this category, the designers decided to experiment a bit with the material. Leather dresses have become a bit provocative and grunge. Saint Laurent in his outfits relied more on form than performance. Balmain presented a gley chic model with rough lace-up high boots.

Dresses in thick jersey and tweed

Since autumn can be very cold, the designers made sure that their clients were always warm. Fashion designers presented warm dresses made of thick knitwear and tweed. The color schemes of the outfits were not limited to any one color. In order not to look old-fashioned, you just need to choose the right accessories.

Asymmetrical fit

Dresses with an asymmetrical cut help hide figure flaws. Only the main thing is to choose the right model for the figure. Fashion designers made sure that women had plenty to choose from.

Uneven hemlines, one-shoulder harnesses or the transition from long sleeves to thin straps are the favorite tricks of designers. David Coma, DennisBasso, Elisabetta Franchi and Mugle presented a large selection of asymmetrical cut outfits.

In the autumn of 2017, new trends will appear (open and nude dresses, dresses with fur trim, dresses with trousers, etc.) and those that do not lose their positions (dresses with floral motifs, dresses with peas, dresses with predatory motifs, etc. .).

Being feminine and beautiful without sacrificing health and comfort in the cold season is one of the main postulates of the modern fashion industry. Many brands adhered to it, creating a variety of dresses for autumn-winter 2017-2018. Fashion trends, photos from the shows will show the beauties how to have a stunning look, even if the temperature outside the window has dropped below zero.

It is impossible to say that oversize leaves the podium. have taken root in women's wardrobes, and most likely because many of those who prefer such clothes just want to hide in wide robes, and even sometimes ugly robes. Everyone has different reasons for this, but we will not discuss them now. Let's just say, oversight and negligence remain.

But still, some designers seem to be tired of excessive shoulders and long sleeves. Feminine retro lines in the Victorian and also in the Art Nouveau in the eternally young 1960s were again in the spotlight. Models of dresses are offered with a straight, tight, trapezoidal silhouette, with puffy skirts, with empire lines, with Victorian closeness in the neckline, ....

The focus remains on volume and asymmetrical cut. It seems to have always been, and still is. A neckline or a collar can be asymmetrical, shelves of different sizes, the absence of one sleeve ... There are silhouettes in which clear constructive lines contrast with soft ones, fit - with volume, etc.

Along with fantasy, there is also its complete absence or minimalism.

Sundress dresses, which are comfortably combined with turtlenecks, tops, blouses and jackets, are demonstrated by many designers in the new season. These models are made from different materials, and the good thing is that such a sundress can be combined with various items of clothing every day.

In the new autumn-winter season, many designers turned to the distant past, and in addition to cardigans, boleros and shawls, they began to add a cape to the dress. In previous seasons, Zang Toi has always shown a similar combination. His collections usually ended with an evening dress with elements similar to the cape of a medieval beauty. In the new collections, this idea was picked up by many designers. And what came of it? Let's see.

The silhouettes of dresses that open the shoulders are undoubtedly elegant and romantic. It is these silhouettes that are particularly elegant - as if slightly natural negligence. But Militta considers it her duty to warn fashionistas about respecting the boundaries of exposure - not to go beyond elegance.

Layering, created by thin flowing fabrics, plays an important role in the autumn-winter season. This technique of creating gorgeous dresses is especially suitable for a girl with principles - NO to excessive exposure of the body. This style solution is also very useful for women of a serious age who want to use light transparent fabrics.

And finally, the stunning cut of the sleeves, which gives us access to all the fashionable styles we know. The sleeves of the new season should be discussed separately. In this discussion of new dress trends for the 2017-2018 season, it’s better to just look.

Dresses length. This is an absolutely democratic question. The answer is simple - different.

Fashionable dresses 2017-2018 - fabrics

Metallic sheen and molten lava are not going to leave the podium. Fabrics with a metallic sheen emphasize the plasticity of the figure, repeating every movement of the lady. The shine of fabrics resembles molten non-ferrous metals and alloys.

Despite the cool weather, voile, lace, organza, etamine, chiffon, silk are offered as light and transparent fabrics. After all, no one cancels holidays in winter, and therefore such fabrics will always be in demand. And yet, tweed, any kind of wool, knitwear, brocade, velvet, taffeta can be considered the best. All of them are good in cold winter time.

Some fabrics, such as lamé or light silk, can over-emphasize the figure, so tight-fitting silhouettes should be approached with care.

Dresses look luxurious in the Tadashi Shoji collection, which uses a combination of fabrics, such as lace with colored jacquard, or in the Balmain collection, where leather is combined with materials of various textures - a stunning sight with real Amazons.

Leather- undoubtedly the material that is simply necessary in the autumn-winter season. It not only creates comfort, but, of course, is one of the noblest materials.

In cool weather, it will be cozy in a denim dress, the best set can be in combination with a turtleneck or a thin jumper. Despite the winter cold, the net is still in the wardrobe. Not only beautiful, but also warm in knitted or tweed dresses.

Decor of fashionable dresses autumn-winter 2017-2018

The variety of decor techniques for designers knows no bounds. And it all starts with the artistic design of fabrics. It can be a variety of textures, exquisite printed designs, embroideries and appliqués. And some fabrics are embroidered entirely with sequins or beads. But these are, of course, dresses for a gala event.

Volumetric applications remain relevant - mostly flowers. They are made from finishing fabrics - chiffon, organza, lace, and a cord or braid is also used. In the decor, a considerable place belongs to metal elements, including eyelets and zippers.

Spectacular finishing details accentuate the line of the shoulders, graceful flounces flutter, pleats open like a fan, shiny fringe flutters and flutters, the shine of luminous and sparkling elements on fabrics delights ... In the decor, as in the choice of silhouette, there is a very thin line that separates impeccable taste from bad taste.

Dresses with drapes and pleats. If you remember the models of the 30s or 40s, then a draped dress will come in handy. And there are many such models in the new collections.

A worthy addition and decoration of the dress in the 2017-2018 season can be collars, belts, scarves or fur stoles.

Embroidery- This is a completely separate conversation. Dresses with handmade embroidery are very expensive, and where machines are used, of course, the cost drops many times over. But machine embroidery also has its downsides. Depending on what thread you catch on, or even all the embroidery will instantly “fly away” from the dress. Therefore, when buying a dress with embroidery, treat it with care.

Beautiful dresses 2017-2018 - prints and palette

It is difficult to consider prints and a palette separately, except that if there is no print at all, then the conversation can be about the palette. And the prints in the new one are whimsical and catchy, with asymmetric graphics or with a futuristic direction, sometimes the imagination of designers is so rampant that even incongruous prints are mixed ...

Antonio Marras, Alberta Ferretti

Printed designs with floral or spot motifs, and sometimes both, patterns in the form of spots, splashes or brush strokes, abstract painting or reminiscent of surreal canvases.

Many designers continue to use the degraded effect, explaining that this technique of dyeing fabrics allows you to make the figure more slender, and also mainly natural fabrics are used to create this effect. As a print on the fabrics, various plant motifs are placed. These can be flowers, carelessly scattered on the surface or in the form of separate bouquets, and landscapes with flora and fauna.

Strip- this ancient ornament, which has been used in clothing since time immemorial, is repeated over and over again. The stripes this season are different, but not boring at all. They fall not only on dresses of a marine style, but also on evening dresses. Most often, striped dresses do not require additional decor. The strip is already a decorative fantasy.

Peas- a print that has been slowly gaining the podium lately. In the same season, we can say that he won his place.

The palette includes exquisite shades of soft lilac, soft vanilla, vysvetennyy lemon, contrasting with rich bright shades. Bright colors are also welcome in winter.

In addition to rich, bright, as well as muted shades, a palette of pastel shades occupies its own niche: blue, menthol, lavender, lemon, creamy, powdery, lilac, sand, peach ...

Jenny Packham, Ryan Roche, Tomas Maier

Ethnic style and boho style the question of leaving behind the scenes is not considered. These, to some extent similar to each other, styles remain, because designers still turn to the origins of the national heritage in order to consider certain ideas that were once sown on popular soil.

Powerful chords of saturated bright colors attracted and still attract the enthusiastic eyes of the audience. Valentino has always strived to make a woman beautiful, his work has always been a hymn to beauty, but today many designers fail to do this.

And the most beautiful models of fashionable dresses 2017-2018, which testify to exquisite taste and are the embodiment of boundless imagination, can be considered a work of art.
