Changeable fashion annually elevates another new product to the peak of popularity. Sometimes the trend of the season turns out to be a well-forgotten old one. A great gift for fashionistas will be the bestseller of 2019 - paperbag trousers.
The concept of “paper bag waist” came to us from the 80s of the last century.
Reference! The literal translation of this English phrase means "waist like a paper bag." It is the tied neck of the paper bag that forms such folds above the ties that we can see above the waistband of fashionable trousers.
Fashion experts predict this model to be incredibly popular. And they even claim that paperbag trousers are quite capable of displacing even the eternal hit of all seasons - universal jeans - in the wardrobe of fashionable and stylish women.
Features of cut and model options
What is so interesting about this style?
Cut
The cut of the trousers provides a high waist, an adjustable waistband, and the top edge of the trousers above the waistband, similar to the edge of a candy wrapper.As well as soft drapery or folds from under the belt, creating volume in the hips.
Concerning pant leg width, then options are possible here: from very wide flying trousers to tapered ones. It all depends on the fabric and the season.
The length also varies. A wide leg cut is usually found on long models. The 7/8 length is also very popular. Moreover, fashion designers claim that the most daring fashionistas will be irresistible in paperbag shorts.
Textile
The choice of fabric in the case of a paperbag is important.
The best choice is fairly soft and drapey fabrics.
- Summer option - viscose, linen, cotton.
- In winter, it is very cozy and comfortable to wear trousers made of soft wool or gabardine with the addition of mixed fibers.
Important! Knitwear of sufficient density is an ideal fabric for the paperbag style.
- An evening out gives room for imagination. Silk, chiffon, suede, velvet and even lace trousers with drapery at the waist and tied with a shiny strap are appropriate here.
Advice! Instead of a strap, you can use a belt stylized as jewelry.
Color
The color scheme is, of course, a woman’s individual choice. But this season, beige and similar shades of peach, sand, cream, and cream are at the peak of popularity.
Who are paperbag trousers intended for?
Believe it or not, stylists claim that the secret to the popularity of this model is precisely that it Suitable for almost all women.
Reference! The accentuated waist and freedom in the hips, as well as the playful gathers above the waistband, look feminine. And at the same time they emphasize the advantages of the figure and disguise a few extra centimeters and kilograms.
- Of course, these trousers would look ideal on girls with an hourglass figure. But the happy owners of such a figure are, in principle, not limited in the choice of styles.
- “Pears” often have complexes when choosing clothes and sometimes refuse to wear trousers altogether. Paperbag in this case is just a godsend! They will emphasize a thin waist and disguise excess assets in the hips.
- Thin little reed girls can safely add a new item to their wardrobe. The main thing is not to forget about heels! You can also emphasize your slender legs with a tapered leg cut.
Important! Unfortunately, there are those for whom this model is contraindicated: these are girls with a short or undefined waist and a massive bust. This is typical for an apple body shape. A highly high-waisted trouser will visually further reduce the distance between the chest and waist lines.
How to wear a fashion model
Paperbag trousers give you the opportunity to combine them in a variety of combinations.
What to wear with
Important! Only one rule should be followed: the upper part must be tucked into the trousers, otherwise the “zest” of the model is simply lost.
Tight-fitting T-shirts, blouses, turtlenecks, shirts, bodysuits are ideal companions for the season's trend.
Those with good physical shape and a perfect stomach can afford a very sexy combination of paperbag trousers and a crop top that reveals a strip of skin above the waist.
How to create a fashionable look
Another advantage of the hit of the season was that the paperbag fits into a wide variety of clothing styles.
To the office
The office option involves a combination with shirt-cut blouses or turtlenecks. At the same time, trousers with a tapered cut look organic. And if the girl also has thin ankles, then the 7/8 length will allow you to create not just a businesslike, but also a very elegant look.
Casual
Casual style is maintained if the companion is knitted thin jumper. It's even possible hand knitted sweater.
Important! The main thing is that the patterns on the sweater are not too embossed, and that the length does not overlap the waistline.
Evening dress
An evening outing allows for elegant tops, expensive silk fabrics and elegant accessories.
How to combine with outerwear
Paperbag trousers can also be combined with outerwear. Fitted jackets up to mid-thigh length, biker jackets or an open cardigan that does not hide the emphasized waist - the choice is yours.
Suitable shoes
In conclusion, a few words about shoes. The trend of the season refers to rather democratic clothes. Combination with wedge sandals, ankle boots, and espadrilles is allowed. And even with sneakers, which, as you know, everyone wears with now. But the ideal win-win option is high-heeled shoes.
