Avant-gardism - a new trend-2016

In this season, fashion houses derive their inspiration from avant-garde architecture - a complex and multifaceted cultural trend of the 20th century. The ambiguity and fantasy of symbolism, the colorfulness of expressionism, the strict geometry of Suprematism and the relaxed laconism of Futurism are reflected in the collections of haute couture. In the favor, clear lines and rigid designs, shiny and metallic fabrics, rich color accents - yellow, blue and scarlet, minimalistic prints, supplemented by massive decorations, low-speed footwear and dotted make-up.

However, podium abstract art is not so simple and unambiguous as it may seem. In it there is a place and elegant flowing dresses in the floor, and strict office twos, and a flirty mini. True, avant-garde motives are an indisputable rule without exceptions. Evening outfits from metal plates, translucent skirts-cases with Suprematist ornaments, satin dresses with geometric cut, sarafans and shirts with the effect of degradation - for fashionistas, keeping pace with the times.
