Romantic natures on the note: things from velvet and velor - an indispensable condition for a fashionable wardrobe-2017. Sarafans and dresses from these regal materials are surprisingly practical: they can be combined with knitted sweaters, knitted golfs and chiffon blouses. However, velvet is absolutely self-sufficient - its silky texture allows creating magnificent draperies on laconic outfits.

The coming frosts are not an excuse to give up lace. Weightless tops and dresses with contrasting delicate trim - an excellent basis for multi-layer ensembles. In the current season they are to be supplemented with caches and greatcoats of loose cut, voluminous coats, fur stoles and high boots-"pipes".

And, of course, floral prints. In this season they play the role of a link between all the "romantic" tendencies. Floristic patterns flicker skillfully on velvet, adorn women's coats, jackets and coats, contrast with lush foam of frills and lace. How correctly to wear this magnificence? Stylists recommend a simple rule: minimalist, deliberately massive accessories and shoes.
