Summer is the perfect time of the year when you can and should experiment, and try on different looks. You can be a romantic girl one day, and a bold and daring fashionista the next morning, use a variety of prints, play with volumes (flounces, frills, puff sleeves), colors (blue, fuchsia, red, yellow), materials (linen, eco-leather, knitwear). There is such a variety of trends that you can get lost in this abundance.
Let’s focus on the prints of this season this time. After watching the spring-summer shows of Alexander McQueen, Stella McCartney, Dolce & Gabbana, Christian Dior, Oscar de la Renta, Michael Kors Collection and other famous brands, we can conclude that they have one thing in common – it’s a print.
Therefore, we have prepared a selection of the top most fashionable patterns of this summer. Go!
FLOWERS
The print that remains on the catwalks year after year is floral motifs. Perhaps this is the most favorite pattern on dresses among women and young girls. And what is the summer without floral motifs? In the 2020 season, the small delicate wild flowers, such as cornflowers, daisies, bluebells, buttercups and others rule the catwalks.
At the shows, you can find whole flower arrangements with large and sweeping buds or twigs as if painted by the artist’s brush onto the fabric.
ANIMAL PRINT
You can’t step into the same river twice, but the animal print has clearly refuted this statement. Lovers of daring and bright looks can safely take out their favorite leopard dress.
The trend of this summer gave us a wide variety of prints: zebra, giraffe, snake. It is worth noting that these prints can be non-standard colors.
CHECKS
If the animal print tends to be cyclical, then the checks are eternal. This is the print that will always be appropriate. Previously, the plaid print was perceived as something serious, official. Obviously, such outfit is not for a social event.
The first association that comes to mind is a quilt or a school skirt, but not an evening dress. Summer trends interpret the exact opposite and prove that the checks can be gentle and romantic.
POLKA DOT
One of the romantic, elegant and airy looks can be obtained with a polka dot print. The popularity of this print was brought by the Christian Dior show in the 50s and it has become a true classics. The polka dot print has won the hearts of designers. It is used in dresses, skirts, blouses and even socks. The only thing that changes in it is the size and, of course, the colors.
TIE DYE
The Tie Dye print originates from the early 70s, when the hippie movement was popular. This print was made by hand on T-shirts, sweaters, dresses, in a word, on any element of the wardrobe. The thing was tied in a bundle and dipped in paint. After drying, the clothes acquired an unusual and bright pattern with stains.
The famous fashion houses like Isabel Marant, Versace paid tribute and revived the tie dye trend.
Be bold and don’t be afraid to experiment. Combine prints and find your style.
