The main fashion trends are those that were often repeated on the catwalk in the spring-summer 2017 shows. But not all of them are based on something new, hitherto unseen.

Fashion is changing rapidly, new interpretations of the long-forgotten old appear, and this is perceived as completely new. In the 2017 collections, there are fashion trends that have been repeating for several seasons, and many of them literally swept the catwalk. These are the ones Militta will tell you about.

1. Bulky things Is one of the most important fashion trends of the spring-summer 2017 season.

Designers have shown on the catwalks loose-fitting clothes, which are several sizes larger than the size of their owner. Today, fashion houses are already deliberately making things that look oversized: oversized sweaters, tunics, blazers with wide sleeves, shirts, wide trousers ...

In part, some things can be attributed to the oversized style, when wearing them, you will not get lost in large volumes, but you will feel, perhaps, a relaxed, informal or slightly frivolous image, while many body defects will disappear. However, when you try on such clothes, you should not feel as if they are hanging on you and making a completely shapeless image.

Look at coats, large jeans, oversized and slightly stretched T-shirts, oversized shirts, sweaters from the spring-summer 2017 collections. They should look like your husband's or friend's wardrobe (considering that he is taller than you and wider at the shoulders). Just keep in mind, in this style, your slimness should be emphasized. The contrast in the sizes of different objects is important here, which will make a woman fragile, graceful and attractive.

Fashion trends spring-summer 2017

In addition to oversized style, pay attention to the fact that you can increase the width of the shoulders and sleeves in volume, put on wide trousers, and also add volume to different elements of clothing.

Consider the main fashion trends in increasing volumes.

Broad shoulders

The width of the shoulders can be increased with the appropriate cut. A cut with a low shoulder line is often found. Sometimes the roundness in the cut of the sleeves from the shoulder line contributes to the increase in width. You can find original models in the collections of Balenciaga, C? Line, Kenzo, Isabel Marant, Jil Sander and many other designers.

Puffy sleeves Is a noticeable fashion trend in 2017. The variety of sleeve cuts creates original models and visually increases the width of the shoulders, and therefore the volume of the clothes. This will be done not only by cute and neat sleeves - "flashlights" or "wings", but also by raglan or flared sleeves.

In addition to the named types of cuts, designers use the expansion of the sleeves downward and gathering it along the edge of the cuff. Splendor is given by huge flounces, gathers, puffs, fringe.

Wide pants. Another of the fashion trends to increase the volume. Wide leg pants have become popular for more than just volume. As you know, the lingerie and at the same time pajama style remains trendy in 2017, so wide-leg trousers are becoming the most popular in the new season. Among them are pants different lengths, including culottes.

Features of the cut and the choice of materials allow you to create interesting options. Some of the trousers on the runway were difficult to distinguish from skirts. They are sewn from cotton, silk and satin.

For cooler spring weather, tweed is preferable. Thick fabrics hold their shape well and create warmth and comfort. Wide leg pants can suit almost everyone, excluding overweight women short stature. They will make them squat and wide. However, the designers thought of everyone, so cropped skirt trousers or just culottes remain.

2. Long sleeves- the fashion trend of 2017, which should be discussed separately, although it also increases the volume to some extent.

Designers Vera Wang and Au Jour Le Jour were especially overdone. This trend appeared more than a year ago, and in the new season it has seriously declared itself. The sleeves cover the hands almost completely. More traditional brands are also experimenting with long sleeves, for example, Aquilano Rimondi, Bottega Veneta, Jil Sander.

Designers and ordinary consumers find that such things are not only comfortable, but also elegant, in some cases you can do without gloves, especially in spring, when you really want to lose those extra pounds of clothes.

3. Unusual cuts and cutouts.

This fashionable trend not only does not give up its positions, but continues to gain momentum. Today, one slit, for example, on a skirt, is not enough. You can cut everything, and as much as possible. Designers place cuts and cuts in clothes in the most unexpected places of the body: on the stomach, chest, back, shoulders, etc.

Let's take a look at the cutout clothing models that offer famous brands for summer 2017. The most original cuts and cuts are usually done by the designer David Koma in the brand of the same name and in the Mugler brand.

But this season, you cannot pass by the Balmain collection. The designer of the Balmain brand is known for his original ideas, especially with weaves. This time, he mercilessly cuts silk, satin and suede fabrics, combines them with mesh and snake print on wide belts, creating an incredibly fantastic sight.

Slit trousers and sleeves. This fashion trend for spring-summer 2017 was especially original demonstrated by the designers of Sally LaPointe, where the slits on the trousers are decorated with lacing, and David Koma has decorated them with metal elements - buttons and eyelets.

Shoulder cutouts - a trend that will be relevant in 2017, although they bare their shoulders for a long time. This fashion trend is considered by many designers. Among them there are overly frank models, and there are quite moderate, elegant, but no less erotic ones, which give the image a femininity and make the outfit more effective and stylish. They are used in blouses, dresses, tops, T-shirts, etc.

4. Pants with a skirt or dress- a trend that emphasizes layering. In the warm season of 2017, designers invite us to wear dresses along with trousers. New trend You cannot name it, but it clearly falls into the list of relevant ones for the summer of 2017, since many designers, including Daks, Laura Biagiotti, Mary Katrantzou and others, assure us of the advantage of this tandem.

When in doubt about your taste, start by pairing a dress and pants in the same color scheme or with the same print. You should not choose a tight-fitting dress, let it be loose. A chiffon dress with trousers will look great. Its transparency will create a light airy image.

A dress with trousers offers many options with various additions. It can be a sweater or jacket, shawl or cape. This combination is convenient both as a casual business option and as an attire for a special occasion, as well as as a wedding attire.

5. High waist- a fashion trend that manifests itself quite persistently in the 2017 season. This is especially demonstrated by the famous fashion house Herm? S. The original models of this brand emphasize the femininity of the image. For example, a slightly gathered edge of the belt of a skirt or trousers with a leather belt at the waist.

Although all models look very elegant, trousers and a high-waisted skirt should be chosen carefully. In the 2017 season, there are many options for any type of figure. For slender girls, trousers with pleats at the waist are perfect, and for girls with lush hips, it is better to stop your eyes on wide models, maybe even on those that are better called skirt-trousers.

High-waisted pants can be of any length, the main thing is to make right choice in accordance with the proportions of your figure, so as not to visually shorten your legs. For trousers and skirts with a high waist, you need to choose a top that will accentuate the waist. Blouses and shirts in these trousers must be tucked in, you can wear a cropped and fitted jacket to them.

6. Trench coats. For the spring of 2017, a coat in your wardrobe can be put aside. Trench coats took power in outerwear. Sometimes they repeat old plots of old films or strict classical lines in beige, and sometimes designers propose to change the classics and then original models appear, but all the same, the trench coat in any case remains a trench coat ...

It can be worn with a pencil skirt, jeans, sneakers or ballet flats, it will endure almost everything. Should not only be worn under a trench coat fluffy skirt, so as not to increase itself in width, although in fashion large volumes but this is not the case.

7. Dressing gowns. This is a fairly practical wardrobe item. And in 2017, the robe is one of the most popular models. An elegant dress with buttons or a belt is an elegant piece.

Designers offer a variety of models from light and dense fabrics: denim, viscose, cotton, chiffon. And the original styles make the dress an indispensable piece of summer wardrobe. You can wear it to a summer party or as a daily wear.

8. Overalls. Overalls were once workwear, but today they are versatile and stylish. Among the many different models, designers offer not only a casual look, but also evening options.

Popular jumpsuits with different form trousers: tight-fitting, straight, flared, cropped and tapered. Overalls made of light flowing fabrics and denim look luxurious. It all depends on the case for which the model is purchased.

9. Lingerie style- a fashion trend that repeats from past seasons, which, like cutouts and transparency, exposes the female body.

What was previously worn under a dress, designers wear on a dress or as a dress. And in the 20s and 90s of the last century, fashion became more outspoken, and women more relaxed.

Today, a slip dress is not new to see at social events. Kate Moss and Naomi Campbell and even Princess Diana appeared in such a dress. In addition to the dress, designers suggest wearing a lingerie-style top, skirt or shorts.

There are many variations in linen style. For the summer season, these things are very versatile, they can complement any look. For example, a top can be worn under jeans or with a pencil skirt, it can complement a trouser suit with a jacket. A lingerie-style skirt is an exquisite item, especially when combined with lace.

Lingerie style for modest girls allows you to experiment with layering. Little cute shorts, which previously could only be seen in photographs fashion magazines like underwear, now brave girls will put on for a walk. Clothes in linen style are light, look stylish and graceful, sewn from silk, satin, chiffon and other light fabrics.

10. Grunge style- a long-loved fashion trend. In 2017, you can wear more than just ripped jeans... To dress in grunge style, you need to combine internal and external freedom, become bold and confident, be able to challenge traditional foundations.

They say that the grunge style has no age. Militta disagrees. With age, the grunge style becomes more dangerous. But if there is a desire to stand out from the crowd, then you need to work on your image.

The grunge style can take the most non-standard forms... The most successful looks are obtained with ripped jeans. In general, combine incongruous things, proceed from convenience, baggy, layering and deliberate negligence. Sloppy and unfinished images at the height of their popularity.

11. Grid- the fashion trend for spring-summer 2017 remains from the previous seasons.

It cannot be missed in any way, especially since every season the grid appears in front of us in a new perspective. Yes, it can be large or small, hard and soft, stretched out like a "string bag" of a layman from the Soviet era, and bright glamorous, like Versace.

But it doesn't end there. The mesh can be one of the layers of the dress, where there is not even a hint of nudity, or it can open the body in such a way that it will cause different associations in each half of humanity. It already depends on your culture and upbringing.

12. Lace and transparent fabrics are one of the ageless and at the same time not a new trend.

Is it possible to miss this trend if designers expose the bodies of young models more and more with each show. Lace and sheer fabrics are so beautiful that you can't resist the temptation to buy yourself at least something like that. However, Militta never ceases to convince her readers not to overstep the measure of the possible.

Take advantage of layering, even if your body is perfect. Bandeau bras, high waisted shorts, bodysuits, or slip are a must. In the new season, lace acquires more and more shades of meaning and combinations with various objects and styles. Sheer fabrics can be paired with denim, wool, satin, silk and even vinyl.

13. Stripe- among the main fashion trends for spring-summer 2017.

It would seem that nothing can be invented with a strip, as soon as parallels and diagonals at different angles. Look in the collections of Balmain, Etro, Mary Katrantzou ... Here you will see that striped print is extremely changeable, and not only in color and parallelism. It can create optical illusions, get lost in prints or blurry watercolors.

14. Floral print- fashion trend 2017, which corresponds to the summer season.

Floral print among the prints spring-summer 2017 took the leading positions. It is difficult to say whether he wins the striped print, but clearly - ahead of the predators, who, despite their aggressiveness, are inferior bright colors... Many designers did not miss the opportunity to present outfits with flowers.

Roses and sunflowers, lotuses and lilies and many other flowers of enormous size. If the desire to increase the volume is already in fashion, then why shouldn't flowers grow on the dresses of fashionistas, and perhaps only on dresses? Flowers adorn trouser suits, tops, blouses, sweaters, and coats.

Small floral print. Take a closer look at charming dresses by Tory Burch, Bora Aksu, Alexander McQueen, Lela Rose, Michael Kors. In them you will find wildflowers.

Volumetric flowers. They occupy their niche in fashionable images, and here nothing else can coexist with them, they either occupy the entire surface of the transparent fabric, or scatter over the lilac and blue field, as in the Marchesa collection.

15. Pleating and draping- flickers in the collections of the summer season, and this trend cannot be ignored. The fact is that in the two previous seasons there was pleating, but it took a more modest place.

This time, in the summer of 2017, she shimmers in the silk outfits of models in many collections. Here she is not only in luxurious flowing skirts, but also in individual items of clothing. Pleated ruffles look luxurious. Check out the colorful models Rochas, Emanuel Ungaro, Elie Saab.

16. Ruffles, ruffles and flounces. Is this a trend? How much can you write about this trend? But you have to. Ruffles, ruffles and flounces are presented differently by designers every season. Pay attention to the collections of Giambattista Valli, Johanna Ortiz, Philosophy di Lorenzo Serafini, Christian Siriano, Jenny Packham, Reem Acra, Erdem, Brock Collection and you will agree.

However, not only the quality, but also the number of frills exceeds the possible. In the collections of Delpozo, Rodarte and Emanuel Ungaro, female models are buried in airy ruffles and flounces. It's easier to name brands that don't have frills than the other way around. These beautiful decorative elements will adorn any woman, because the romantic style will suit each of us.

Fringe, tassels, reflective elements such as rhinestones, sequins, crystals and large multi-colored plates play the first role in fashion trends in clothing decor. The merit of the metal elements is also great. Here we can see metal rivets in the form of stars, studs, plates of various shapes, eyelets, chains and piercings.

Philipp Plein, Jeremy Scott, Prabal Gurung, Rodarte

The fringe creates the effect of movement, something fluttering and flowing. It turned out to be appropriate everywhere, and on accessories as well. The most common fringe in the form of thin stripes on leather and suede products. Thin thread fringes and feathers adorn short and long evening dresses.

All this looks erotic and mysterious, a feeling of solemnity is created. Fringe is a sophisticated finish that adds sophistication to the pieces. Feathers are quite an expensive decoration, but you must admit that they create a special charm.

Kenzo, Hermes, Elisabetta Franchi
Etro, Tods, Naeem Khan

Many fringed items can be found in the collections of Giamba, Giorgio Armani, Marco de Vincenzo, Max Mara, Tod’s, Elisabetta Franchi, Naeem Khan, Antonio Berardi, Monique Lhuillier.

18. Mules. Mules are shoes that evoke pictures of the Rococo era, when beauties dressed their feet in velvet or satin shoes, or Hollywood films of the 30s, in which the white-skinned blonde Jean Harlow participated, especially in boudoir scenes.

Mules appeared more than once, but they were in heels, and many came to the conclusion that these shoes were only for the boudoir, otherwise they were useless. It is inconvenient to drive a car in them, to climb the escalator and much more, with the modern rush, is also inconvenient.

Designers have found a way out - for more than one season, and especially in 2017, they offer mules without heels, with flat soles, but for a change they offer mules with small heels.

19. Palette fire rooster and blue clouds. They are red, orange yellow colors... Their combination in one image looks especially impressive. In addition to these tones, a noble blue color is often found, which you can see in the collections of Jason Wu, Hugo Boss, Prabal Gurung and many other designers.

20. Fashion accessories

Huge Bracelets - Every Fashion Week featured female models wearing oversized bangles.

Belt bags

Militta has already written about them. In a sense, this is convenient - hands are free. These bags do not have to look like the bags of tourists or salespeople. Many of them can replace beautiful and graceful clutches for an evening out.

Wide belts , emphasizing the waist, including obi belts, all kinds of belts and huge buckles on them. Experimenting with the number of belts is not forbidden, take a look at the original offer from John Richmond or Alberta Ferretti.

Listed are those trends that are too loudly declare themselves.

Add to all of the above that there are still boho-style dresses. Tassels, braid, rhinestones, floral and ethnic prints, wide-brimmed hats, slippers, sandals, which are inseparable with this style, also remain in demand in the summer season 2017. But to distinguish yourself, wear them with rough boots and suede jackets.

Sundresses as well as swimwear, a must-have for the summer season. Therefore, there are no questions about their purchase. Which one is the best depends on your body shape and personal preference. Almost every brand presented its best options in the new season.

Not only boho or romantic style loves embroidery. This includes many styles. In addition to various satin stitch embroidery, cutwork embroidery often appeared on the catwalk.

Mallet dresses often found in collections, these outfits are especially luxurious in evening versions.

Shirt Dresses and just a shirt of a free cut will be relevant in the spring-summer of 2017. Any girl in this outfit looks perky and attractive. An oversized shirt can be perfectly combined with skirts or trousers.

Leather goods. If in summer leather things are not the most demanded material, then on cool spring days they are irreplaceable. Many famous brands have presented luxury products that can be worn for both casual and evening outings.

Saint Laurent, Hermes, Emanuel Ungaro, Versus

Mixing prints. Prints keep mixing. In many collections, the decoration of the outfit is not sequins or embroidery, but the simplest fabrics, masterfully selected by designers in the same model. Patchwork is also related to the mixing of prints.

Angelo Marani, Atsushi Nakashima, Milly

The original mix of prints can be seen in the collections of Giamb, No. 21, Antonio Marras ... Inscriptions and slogans, drawings and portraits continue to intrigue us with questions - who is this and what is written here? They remain popular, they can be found not only on the walls of houses or fences.

Jeremy Scott

Things with a predatory print. Although the predators have ceded the primacy to the strip and flowers, they will not let us forget about themselves. Spotted animal prints continue to flicker in one or the other collection.

Glossy and metallic shimmering, inspired by the disco era, remains popular in the new season, with a huge variety of shimmery styles that distinguish summer 2017 colors.

Having looked through a huge number of spring-summer 2017 collections, Militta came to the conclusion that volume prevails in fashion, and at all coordinates of our body, the grunge style with all its negligence, transparency to the point of vulgarity. There are designers who in this direction create everything exquisitely, sophisticated and thoughtful.

However, many do not think, and negligence crosses the border, beyond which is already vulgarity, vulgarity and squalor. Others, apparently, want to play a trick on us, offering clothes of circus clowns. It's good if these are bright fantasies, but when the sleeves of the jacket are on the legs, then you might think that they are already laughing at us in earnest.

Remember S. Marshak's children's poem "Absent-minded man":

... I put my hands in my sleeves -
It turned out to be pants….

Instead of a hat on the go
He put on the frying pan.
Instead of boots, gloves
I pulled it on my heels ...

If you want to be in this place, then all the roads are open for you - “freedom”, “democracy” and “tolerance” for everyone, and fashion trends spring-summer 2017 will help in creating a variety of images ...

If you like more elegant accessories, then pay attention to such detail as chokers. Such an accessory will be appropriate even with a business suit. You can emphasize the romantic mood by wearing a bracelet or brooch with a large flower. The material from which the decoration is made can be any, be it silk or leather.

Tops

Crop tops are losing more and more fabric, and it is now suggested to wear bodices in the summer, which can be delicately covered with jackets or shirts. For the correct adaptation of this trend, both courage and taste are needed so as not to overstep the boundaries and not fall into vulgarity.

Miracle in feathers

Feathers, as well as lace and ruffles, are a decor that gives clothes a special character, evoking associations either with the retro theme of the 1920s and 1930s, or with the images of ballet tutus. Feathers are still widely used today, mainly for cocktail dresses.

Expensively ornate: fashionable brocade

Brocade was in vogue many seasons ago, and since then its popularity has slowly faded away. Today, thanks to the resurrected theme of Baroque, Rococo and other eras, brocade has once again become a material for women's dresses, jackets, suits, trousers and skirts. Someone will say that it is noble, others will call it kitsch. However, this is a notable trend for spring-summer 2017.

Blue denim leaves no room for color versions, however it makes denim clothing less interesting and varied. We see a combination of different shades of blue, a patchwork effect, different textures of denim, unusual types of jeans, coats and skirts.
