The floor-length skirt is universal. It was worn at all times. From the very day when women decided to exchange skins for fabrics. For the last few seasons, this part of the wardrobe has been a must-have at fashion shows around the world. In a wide variety of designs and colors. Not surprising. After all, she looks good on any figure. The main thing is to be able to correctly find the remaining components of the image.
Features of combining a long skirt with a blouse
To find the right combinations, there are some aspects to consider:
- colors;
- what it is made of;
- cut;
- the presence of pockets and decor;
- type of belt (narrow or wide elastic, a row of several thin rows), for belts of different thicknesses, with a button and zipper, with slots.
Differences in cut:
- tight-fitting;
- tight knitted;
- expanding from the hips (for example, “gode”);
- wedges;
- "Sun";
- gathered in lush folds;
- “flowing”;
- straight with slits (one or two, at the back or on the sides);
- translucent with a stretch mini petticoat and so on.
Reference! Depending on this, we look for an element that complements the outfit. This is one of the main principles of creating a bow.
What blouses are suitable for a long skirt
With a long skirt you can wear:
- To go with the “pencil” they buy voluminous translucent and airy ones, say: chiffon. They can be played beautifully. If the skirt is not multi-colored, you should wear something with bright patterns or a futuristic print underneath it. Definitely the same color scheme. Let’s say a blouse in beige, sand, khaki, and white color combinations goes with brown;
- The bottom is silk or satin, reminiscent of flowing water, complemented by a tight blouse;
- “Flare” options include shirts and formal blouses without knots at the waist. The flared model is already a spectacular element in itself. There is no need to weigh it down;
- If the material contains patterns, it is better not to overdo it with accessories and jewelry. Gypsy style is not for everyone;
- Warm winter styles with large checks look great with plain sweatshirts. Fitted denim jackets, short leather jackets. A short coat with a fur hood is also a wonderful choice. A sheepskin coat up to the hips will do;
- Shirts that make the shoulders appear narrower are tucked in. It looks feminine;
- Denim vests can be worn with a ribbed pleated maxi.
Which blouses should be excluded from an image with a long skirt?
The recommendations are as follows:
- If the skirt or top has patterns, then you should leave one. A simple rule: the bottom is colored, the top is plain. And vice versa;
- Even single-color items (turtlenecks, sweaters, sweaters) without patterns cannot be combined with clothes that do not match the color scheme. Just imagine: green and red, blue and pink, raspberry-emerald, silver and gold. Etc. Such flashy “unions” look extremely ridiculous;
- You cannot add a voluminous jacket to a fluffy maxi.This makes you look very fat and gives your figure unnecessary extra volume.
Things should be selected in the same style: business, evening, classic, etc. A playful colorful skirt for warm seasons with a sweater or a formal jacket is a terrifying bad manners.
