Classic images for girls. Classic clothes, photo-examples and stylish tips

Recently I went to the subway and saw an elderly woman dressed in a classic style. To see this was unusual, and I began to observe her and the reaction of people to her appearance.

Despite the simplicity of her clothes, men and women did not take her eyes off her. Do not get me wrong, she was not dressed festively. Nothing superfluous, special or old-fashioned, but in everything was elegance, restraint and beauty. A monotonous dress of calm color, simple cut, and on top a straight woolen coat. A small silk handkerchief, a handbag of medium size. Neat pearly carnations, not catchy, but remarkably matched to clothes. She looked everyday, not theatrically.

The whole evening I thought about her and about how we do not have enough classics in everyday life. You say that it is uncomfortable? I'll bet. What is the simple dress of the classic cut, a straight monophonic thick coat, a minimum of ornaments, neat gloves - in convenience - are different from the hoodies that some women after forty try to wear for themselves? I do not know.

But first things first.

Often, when you talk about the classical style, modern people imagine a business office style. Although it is from the classical style of clothes that the business style developed, and not the other way around. And the fact is that the classic is taken as the basis for success, good taste and elegance.

Restrained, impeccable and simple, the classic style has won the love of millions of women around the world. The standard of this style became many celebrities - such as: Coco Chanel, Audrey Hepburn, Margaret Thatcher, Jacqueline Kennedy and many other elegant ladies.

In Latin, classicus is an exemplary and exemplary one. The highest category and first-class without excesses are the mottos of the classical style. And it's not for nothing that the first lady of different countries chooses the classics. This is a standard, choosing which, it is difficult to make a mistake.

Classic is something that never goes out of style. It can be called boring, pedantic, strict, but the classical style is always a victory and success. No wonder they say that if you do not know what to wear, choose a classic style.

What is the secret of the classical style? Probably, first of all, in the integrity of the image, in harmony, in the sharp lines. The classical image is tactful, but it is not pedantic until boredom; restrained, sustained, but not arrogant. In the classical style, we feel the traditions and fundamentalism that are so necessary for man in this world.

On the one hand, the classical style is time-tested, and on the other hand, it exists as if out of time. It is relevant almost always and everywhere, has no age restrictions, it is great for any type of figure. A woman in a classic suit always looks slimmer, looks elegant and collected.

History of classical style of clothes

The classical style comes from England around the 17th century. It is considered to be one of the oldest style trends. Originally, strangely enough, it was a man's style of clothing. It is the strict English men's suit that is considered the progenitor of the classical style.

The roots of the classical style go deep into English Puritanism, with its conservatism, rigor and rejection of excesses in everything. That is, the classic (like any other style) is, in addition to clothing, an inner component, a life philosophy. Smartness, neatness, elegance, inner core are the basic qualities of a woman dressed in classics (she is such in fact or wants to appear).

I must say that the very process of "settling" the classic elements of the men's wardrobe in the women's closet went quite slowly and was resisting. On the one hand, women actively sought to borrow elements of the male costume. It was at the beginning of the 18th century that a feminist movement for equal rights with men arose, so clothing, as a means of achieving the goal, was a suitable topic. On the other hand, the process was very long and found many opponents. Only Coco Chanel managed to finally reassure the world community by revealing to the world its stunning collection of classic clothes. Clothing in the classical style was not only very beautiful, but also functional, comfortable and elegant.

Talking about the classic style, of course, you can not forget about the great fashion designer Coco Chanel. We owe it to her "hits" of classical style: a small black dress, a trouser suit, a straight skirt below the knee, tweed straight jackets and much more.

Features of classical style of clothes

The main features of the classic style of clothes are minimalism, quality, elegance in simplicity, moderation: in color, decoration, silhouette.

Classic style combines rigor, restraint and femininity. Fabrics are good, colors are not flashy. Basically, clothes are monophonic, but the figure is also appropriate: a herringbone, a foot, a strip, a cage.

Silhouette of clothes in classic style straight, contiguous or semi-adjacent. Minimum trim and openness, elegant shoes. Laconism and severity in everything.

The classical length of the skirt is just below or slightly above the knees. In the classics you can see maxi, but mini never.

Fabrics: tweed, silk, velvet, jersey, wool.

The classics do not tolerate catchy and extravagant jewelry. Accessories are restrained, simple, but elegant: laconic jewelry, pearls, brooches. According to the rules of the classics it is believed that wearing more than three elements of jewelry is a bad taste.

Classical style has another useful property - all things in the classical style are perfectly combined. It's convenient and practical.

Clothes in classic style

Classics and modernity

The classical style, being the most conservative, underwent very small changes in the history of fashion. Changing colors, the shape of pockets, the type of fabric, the length of sleeves and jackets, some other elements, but in general the classic style remained itself. We know that a suit in the classical style can be worn for years, and it does not go out of fashion, as it happens with clothes of other styles.

There are things that are not subject to time. They are eternal, they exist outside of change and fashion, they do not change themselves ever and under no circumstances. One such "pillar" is the classic style. Classics are music, poetry, architecture, traditions, etc. In this publication we will discuss classic style of clothes. A little earlier I told you about the style. Classic styleand absolutely different, but each of them has its own raisins, its own beauty and uniqueness. Every person is free

Make your choice of what to wear and how to look.

Originated classic style of clothes  English Puritans. The basis of classical style  those ancient times lay the mandatory female modesty. Fashion was strict, not allowed any kind of ryushechki, bows and jewelry.

Its main line is restraint - classic style of clothes  holds today. Robes in this style are elegant, you can feel the sense of proportion in everything, there are no unnecessary non-functional details. Having worn classical things, a person even becomes inwardly stricter and stronger, more restrained and more elegant. With dignity, everything that is connected with the classical style is impregnated. If you like stability and stability - this style is for you!

Jacket

The main thing in a classic wardrobe is, of course, a suit. It can be a trouser suit or with a skirt, but it is necessarily fitted and emphasizes the shoulder line of the Jacket with rounded or straight lapels, its length varies and depends on the fashion.

Skirt

The length of the skirt can vary according to the fashion trend, but it is never too short or too long. Its usual length is up to the knee. Cut straight. High quality fabrics - as one of the unshakable rules of style. Classics - it's a smooth, low-key fabric, a strip, a cage or a small background picture is possible.

Shoes

Without trinkets, strict, the boat lies at the base. Heel medium or stiletto, high-quality leather, natural, expensive. Cape shoes can be a color contrasting with the main one. The female leg in the shoe with a sharp classic nose is simply gorgeous! Impeccable look and image of a business woman will emphasize only classic shoes. This is the key to the success of any modern lady.

Dress

Very beautiful looks strict evening dress with straps, tight fitting figure and reaching to the ankles. Complemented with a short ballero, this classic combination, despite its lack of brightness, will simply shine! Believe me, not a single newfangled dress (be it golden though), does not compare with the classical one. Classics provides for different lengths, but they are all fitted and a bit strict.

Fashion comes and goes, and these things remain in the women's wardrobe!

No matter how noble the word "classic" sounded, for many it is synonymous with "boring" and "banal", especially when it comes to women's wardrobe, and not just about literature and music. Stylish girlfriends of "classic" ladies often try to dress them up in something more extravagant and fashionable.

But is the classic so unoriginal and dull as it is "painted"? We do not think so! Especially when it comes to some wardrobe items that have adequately passed the test of time and changing fashion, but still remain relevant. They help to "assemble" the image into a single whole and give it elegance and charm.

Take note!

Modern classic

Why is the classic eternal? Because with the right approach it is difficult to outdo even the most trendy outfit. But under one condition: if it is a classic in modern execution.

The costume from Chanel 50 years ago will look elegant, but vintage, but not relevant. The suit of the same brand, executed in the same traditions, but from the recent collection, whatever one may say, will look more "advanced".

It's all about the details of cuts, accessories, material and colors. Pay attention to the time-tested models, but in a modern version, to look actual and fashionable.

Basic things of classical style

Modern classical clothing can not be imagined without the following wardrobe items.

How many times did the stylists repeat this, but we will repeat it again: a white shirt - as it is now fashionable to express itself, an absolute "masthev" of any wardrobe, both female and male. It is more difficult to imagine a more universal thing. It blends perfectly with everything, whether it's a romantic sumptuous skirt, ragged jeans or office pants.

Gives elegance to everyday clothes and "brings down from heaven to earth" smart.

Focus on the same cult jacket from Chanel without a collar or riding jackets.

The choice of style depends on the type of the figure. To classical carry trousers of a direct cut or flare with an average height of landing.

Let the statement that the "pencils" color all types of female figures without exception, and filled with nausea, but it really is. A win-win model is a skirt with a high waist just below the knee.

Of course, it's not about a striped T-shirt from the department of men's underwear, but about a quality Breton sweatshirt. The tellyashka should evoke thoughts about Paris, and not about the airborne forces.

Hello to the cult style of Audrey Hepburn. If you are "afraid" of black color, choose any dark shade that suits you.

Preferably a pastel or beige shade. The traditional model has a V-neck, but the choice of neckline depends on the length of the neck, the shape of the face and the type of figure.

Choose dark-colored flared jeans with medium or high fit. They not only look very stylish, but also are at the peak of fashion this season.

Such dresses were worn and continue to be worn by many first ladies of the world. And this is not surprising: the one-piece dress of midi without sleeves looks at the same time vintage, classically and modern.

It is difficult to imagine a more universal model of clothes in the style of unisex. It adorns both men and women.

Note the single-breasted trench coat. As a rule, they look better unbuttoned and visually pull out the silhouette.

Especially camel shades. Classics for all time.

Initially, men's slippers, this kind of shoes fits perfectly into the women's wardrobe and obviously does not intend to take positions.

15. Oxford and the buggies.  Another type of men's shoes, which is ideal for any woman, regardless of age and complexion.

For the appearance of ballet shoes in our shoe arsenal it is worth to say thanks to Brigitte Bardot. The more elegant the material and the richer the decoration of the ballet, the more classically and stylishly they look.

Two classic shades: beige and black.

These high boots at low speed are comfortable to wear and look expensive and elegant. They can be worn with both dresses and jeans.

19. Diamond and pearl carnations.  This kind of jewelry never goes out of fashion and looks appropriate in any situation, except, perhaps, the pool and sports hall.

A few strings of pearls of different lengths (remember, how they wore Coco Chanel) will be a perfect addition to any wardrobe item from this list.

Classic with a twist

• Combine things from this list with "hooligan" wardrobe items like ragged jeans and simple t-shirts or ultra-trendy things to create a modern look.
• It is possible to emphasize the classic message of these things by choosing fabrics and materials of neutral, calm shades (beige, white, black, dark blue, gray) and traditional prints (cage, strip, paisley, Turkish cucumber, etc.).
• Bright classical, unusual shades (for example, metallic, neon or ultramarine) will help to make the classical ensemble more dynamic, as well as an active print (graphic, large, animalistic).

To add along a note of elegance, complete it with at least one thing from the classic list and you will always look stylish!

You are forced to go to the store for another white blouse, because to wear something else does not allow the rules? Or maybe you just love the classic style in clothes? In any case, the classic is not boring!)) In my publication, I will present you with a few black and white images that are suitable for work, school, walks with a girlfriend and even a date. Let's get going.
  Such a blouse will look great if you put it in a black pencil skirt of any length. You can wear it with a bow, and without, but personally I like it more with him. So, in my opinion, more stylish.

Look for those who are not afraid of admiring looks. It's true that you do not have to go to work or school, but with a friend in a cafe ... If someone looks like an open dress, then the lower part can be replaced by black narrow trousers. Look will not be worse.

I really like this image. He is bright, captures a look. The handbag sets off the black kit. Hmm ... and so come to work is even possible. Rise not far off, fashionista))

It seems that it's easier nowhere. Normal, white, romantic. Well, who does not wear it? But with well-chosen accessories and shoes, it will play with new colors.

Such a skirt does not necessarily carry a white strict blouse. Sometimes you can afford an open white T-shirt or a beautiful blouse. And let the teacher say that this is not a school dress, you are today a queen.

But this kind of thing can be mastered in half an hour. You buy a white T-shirt / soccer, you make a bow for five minutes and ... op!))

Very cute office style. Simple and tasteful. And that would not be so simple, the kit can be diluted with accessories.

Accessories dilute the severity of black and white scales.

Watch what) By the way, these can be bought. It seems that somewhere around 2000 are worth.))

As for shoes, you should always be on top. In the literal and figurative sense)
