Dear Coco Chanel, you forgive us, women, for the windiness and impermanence, but to whom, no matter how best you know the feminine soul that craves experiments and strives for excellence, just like you tried to achieve it in your time, creating your small black dress!
And now, after a century, we all also bow to this unique model, which has more than once rescued us in any life situations, while remaining incredibly elegant and feminine. We unanimously made him an icon of style and elevated to the rank of universal attire, which simply must be in the wardrobe of every fair sex. But now.
... Now everything has changed a little and we wanted something fresh, new, white. Fashion designers, as if reading our bright thoughts, succumbed to the general excitement and presented to the general public a small white dress, which immediately subdued the entire fashion world and us, ordinary women. No, do not you think a small white dress is not an alternative to black, but rather its addition, a peculiar play of contrasts, which, despite the age-old struggle, always go hand in hand.
So, whether you like it or not, a small white dress is at the peak of its fame and popularity in the new fashionable season of 2014. What makes it so demanded is definitely hard to say, because white color is pretty whimsical and foppy in toes. In addition, not every young lady will dare to dress him, remembering the truth of the truth, that light colors are full (although not everyone knows that a couple of kilograms of excess weight is attached not to the color, but to the style of the clothes). But the fact that total white is incredibly effective is an indisputable fact. Especially when it comes to translucent lace or a dazzling atlas. But about this a little later.
Having brought to the podium a white color, many couturiers, who had not previously worked in monochrome, were surprised by its complexity and ambiguity. As it turned out, the abundance of white can transform the outfit into a completely impersonal blank sheet, which is transformed into an amazing piece, almost a masterpiece of model art, with the help of complex cuts, decorations, accessories, combinations of materials and textures, appliqués, laces and embroideries. A striking example of this can be simple straight cut dresses, suspiciously reminiscent of a hospital gown. But add to them a couple of bright colorful accessories and ... Voila - the situation is fundamentally changing! Before us is no longer a uniform, but a sexy outfit of a high quality mark. Well, if you remove jewelry and slightly "pinch" the hem, you can get a completely different model with a tulip-shaped skirt. It is original, is not it? Or here: clear lines of a dress-trapezium, a small round neckline without a collar and sleeves in the same laconically white color. Well this is boring, you will say and will be completely wrong. The secret of such small white dresses in multilayeredness and the interaction of various incongruous, seemingly, materials. Well, and finally, lace. This season, his skate was the baby-dollar style, which changed the usual caramel-pink tones to an innocent white color. Lush flounces of short playful snow-white skirts of doll dresses, are abundantly decorated with chic lace, silk roses, bows and other vanilla paraphernalia typical for this style. By the way, white lace in a small floral ornament, fashion designers borrowed for classical collections. Here, however, as always, everything is exquisite and without excess: direct silhouettes, thin straps, moderate draperies, lightweight fabrics in a noble pearly white color.
All these little white dresses are insanely beautiful, do you agree, Madame Coco? Let them not so practical and not as versatile as their legendary prototype, but they are more than worthy to occupy in the ladies' wardrobe a place next to your little black dress.
