Among the huge variety of trends in 2020, many designers chose the nomad style. It is characterized by long dresses and skirts, striped ponchos, robes, and loose trousers. And today I'll tell you how to wear them correctly to create an authentic traveler look.
Main rules
The nomad style is mainly characterized by a loose fit. Since in recent years women and men prefer comfort and convenience to beauty, designers have adopted the rules of the game. That is why models in traveler style outfits are increasingly appearing on catwalks.
The color scheme of this trend is dominated by milky white, brown and gray shades. Oddly enough, black is not typical for him. But bright stripes, patch pockets, fringe and other decorative elements can be found in abundance on the catwalks.
Species diversity
Modern designers distinguish several nomad styles. Four of them were especially pronounced in 2020:
- urban;
- South American;
- Central Asian;
- safari.
The first one has more strict lines, but still the clothes are trimmed with various inserts made of contrasting material. It includes long dresses and skirts in the boho style, sandals and platform sandals. Among other things, numerous decorations are relevant.
South American style features bright striped ponchos, wide hats and fringe. As an addition, suede bags and moccasins, a variety of eye-catching accessories. The shades in it are often brighter than in other variations.
Central Asian style is expressed in leather and fur details, ethnic jewelry made of feathers and stones, wicker necklaces and bracelets.
Safari is a formal shirt, trousers or shorts. It is characterized by light brown, olive or gray shades. It comes pretty close to business casual.
However, models often appear on the catwalks in mixed styles. A poncho will go well with fringed jeans, and elegant khaki shorts with a fur bag. The nomad style itself is diverse. Its main theme is the spirit of freedom and the era of geographical discoveries.
Things characteristic of the style
The tunic dress of a steppe nomad would be an excellent base for the look. It should be as loose as possible, with wide sleeves and a collar, made of light fabrics. The spirit of tranquility of the spacious steppes is important in these clothes. The collar, trimmed with suede, adds chic to the model and makes it, if not luxurious, then certainly stand out. Along with the dress, you should wear a voluminous necklace made of natural stones, wooden parts or feathers.
For South American style, a bold knitted dress in bright colors is suitable.Candid lines are typical of urban fashionistas, but colorful stripes and fringe are typical of Mexican culture. This dress is not a shame to wear to the beach, a party or even a simple summer walk. If it's cold outside, you can throw a poncho on top.
Loose cropped trousers in light shades, decorated with inserts of a different material with various floral prints, are quite popular. They should be combined with an asymmetrical belt and matching patch pockets.
A real South American poncho goes well with loose light gray trousers. Bright vertical and diagonal stripes add a festive touch to it. The cut is fashionable for 2020: the front is shorter than the back, lots of laces and a loose silhouette. Volumetric jewelry will perfectly complement this look.
