HOW TO WEAR AND COMBINE PRINTED CLOTHES: FASHION TIPS

It seems to me that no women’s wardrobe can do without printed clothes. Even if you are a fan of strict minimalism in clothes and prefer monochromatic looks and sets, you can still find a checkered woolen jacket, a blouse with polka dots or a dress with small flowers somewhere. Well, for girls who do not have prejudices about noticeable prints and bright clothes, there are much more things with various patterns in the closet. And this, in turn, gives much more opportunities to come up with more noticeable looks and elegant combinations.

What prints has spring fashion 2022 prepared for us, what to wear with a print and how to combine different patterns with each other not to overload the look?

TRENDY PATTERNS FOR SPRING-SUMMER

Along with the usual floral prints, checkered patterns, stripes and polka dots, not quite ordinary prints have also gained popularity. This season I advise you to get a couple of things in the houndstooth (by the way, did you know that the houndstooth can also be different?), consider natural dresses and blouses with prints with small objects (stars, crescents, planes, little men, drops and hearts), and also pick up an item with a shiny coating, reminiscent of stardust.

 

BASIC COMBINATIONS WITH PRINTS

It’s no secret that printed women’s clothing is best paired with solid colors. As for the color content, you can combine the basic shades with each other: for example, a black dress with silk straps and a caramel checkered jacket, or dark gray jeans, a striped longsleeve and a black oversized jacket made of eco-leather, or a milky blouse with puff sleeves in a small flowers with a sandy leather pencil skirt. You can also combine bright shades with pastels, choosing both a bright print background and a noticeable pattern color. In this concept, you can buy a layered dress in flowers on a lavender or coral background, choose a red sundress with white polka dots or a wrap dress with a colorful vertical stripe. If you want to use several bright shades in the look, check the color wheel rules for combining bright shades to avoid stylistic failures.

HOW TO COMBINE DIFFERENT PRINTS IN ONE LOOK?

The main rule is not to make a total look out of printed clothes. It is also desirable to select patterns with similar geometry so that they complement each other unobtrusively. If, for example, you have a dress with polka dots or small round flowers, then you can complement it with a denim jacket with hand-drawn graffiti (letters should be rounded). A set of striped turtleneck and jeans can be diluted with a raincoat with an abstract watercolor print. And a plaid jacket can be confidently worn with striped trousers and a plain top.
