Women's classic suit
A classic suit is sure to be in every woman's wardrobe. It can be a set of a jacket with a skirt or a jacket and trousers. A classic suit is a basic thing that will allow you to look stylish, fashionable and expensive in any situation. By changing jewelry or adding accessories, you can create a new, bright and memorable image every time.
Peculiarities
A suit is a set of clothing, usually consisting of a vest, jacket (jacket) and trousers (skirt). All elements of the costume are made from the same material. The costumes differ from each other in terms of configuration, material, colors, style, length, etc.
Women's classic costume appeared around the middle of the 17th century. At first it was a set of clothes for riding, later the suit migrated to the everyday wardrobe of women. Initially, the jacket was made in a straight free silhouette, and only at the beginning of the 20th century, more feminine fitted models began to appear.
Long skirts were gradually shortened, revealing first the calves, and then the entire leg to the knee. Largely, thanks to Coco Chanel, feminine silhouettes of suits came into fashion. Today such models have become classic.
Styles
Pantsuit. A very practical and stylish option, equally well suited for the office, and for everyday life, and for celebrations.
When choosing a suitable style, you should build on your own physique. For example, girls with wide hips are shown flared or straight models of trousers and jackets up to the waist or slightly lower. Longer models will widen your hips.
Pantsuits are quite practical and comfortable to wear.They perfectly correct the figure, visually stretching it and making it slimmer.
Classic trousers - a model tightly fitted at the waist and hips, straight or slightly flared from the hip, length - to the middle of the heel.
A suit with a skirt is no less popular than a trouser set. A skirt for a classic suit can be made in several styles. Among the most common: straight, pencil skirt, trapeze, tulip, sun, pleated skirt, pleated, yoke. The ideal length is around the knee, slightly above or below.
The jacket can be made in a variety of variations: with flounces, a peplum, an original form of a collar and lapels, fitted or straight. The length of a classic jacket also varies. This is a shortened model, barely reaching the waistline, and elongated, below the hips.
A business suit involves a combination of items of one or two contrasting colors. Most often this is a combination of light top - dark bottom or vice versa.
It is a delusion to believe that a classic suit looks perfect only on a slender, tall woman. A variety of styles of jackets, trousers and skirts allows you to easily choose a harmonious set for plump ladies with curvaceous shapes.
Large suits fit the figure no less perfectly, and look no less elegant. It all depends on the type of physique of the woman. It is enough to choose the right length of trousers or a skirt, play on the merits of the figure correctly and hide small flaws, so that the silhouette looks much more graceful and slimmer than it really is.
Business suit, made in the English style, is distinguished by simplicity of design, clear lines, comfort to wear and elegance of form. English conservatism presupposes restraint in colors, perfection in a cut, traditional lengths and natural materials.
Textile
The material chosen for sewing a suit must meet several requirements.
- Crease resistance. A classic suit should always look perfect.
- The ability to quickly regain its original shape after stretching. The material should not deform.
- The material must have good hygroscopic properties.
Most often, natural materials are chosen for sewing (cotton, tweed, cambric, wool, silk, cashmere, crepe). Synthetic materials or fabrics with a large amount of synthetics are not recommended for sewing. In such a suit it will be hot, uncomfortable, in addition, such a fabric does not allow moisture to pass through well.
Soft, delicate velvet is very often used for sewing evening dresses and suits for a special occasion. A velvet suit in dark blue, deep wine, emerald green, purple or black looks very elegant and noble.
Colour
Traditional colors for a classic suit are black, brown, gray or white. A black or white suit looks appropriate in any setting and is ideally combined with other clothes, shoes and accessories. A combination of contrasting colors looks very stylish and unusual, for example, a black jacket - a white skirt or vice versa.
Today, designers propose to deviate from generally accepted norms and turn their attention to costumes in brighter and more juicy shades. Intense red, deep blue, beautiful emerald color are ideal for combination with a classic cut.
One of the trends in recent seasons is pink. Not flashy or poisonous, but gentle or completely pale. This costume looks very sophisticated.
How to choose?
When choosing a model of a classic suit, you should, first of all, start from your body type. For example, an overly thin top and narrow shoulders will help to visually transform a fitted jacket with shoulder pads. Visually balancing the narrow top and wide bottom will help and wide lapels on the jacket. It is advisable to pick up the jacket short, in any case, its length should not go along the widest line of the hips.
Women with a "triangle" body type are advised to pay attention to sets of dark trousers or a skirt and a light jacket or jacket. This combination visually evens out the proportions, making the figure more harmonious.
For owners of a "rectangle" type, we can recommend jackets of a straight or slightly adjacent cut. Pants can also be straight or tapered. Small decorative details such as patch pockets are acceptable.
Tiny girls can be advised suits with a vertical thin stripe. Such a print visually "stretches" the figure.
Holders of an "apple" figure can try on jackets with a deep enough V-neck. The length of the jacket can be up to the thigh line or slightly below. It is advisable to choose a dark color scheme that significantly stretches and slims the figure. And correctly placed bright accents (a scarf, a beautiful brooch, an elegant clutch, etc.) will help to beautifully beat the restrained colors. Pants should fit snugly around the hips and abdomen. The model can be straight or slightly flared.
Fashion trends 2021
One of the trends of the new season, of course, is the refinement of the silhouette and clear geometry of the lines. No blurry shapes or avant-garde designs. Only a strict, laconic silhouette, beautiful shoulder line, classic length.
A pencil skirt and trousers that fit tightly on the hips and are flared from the hip line are very relevant. Free flying silhouette. At the same time, trousers should almost completely hide the shoes. Only the toe of the shoe and part of the heel remain in sight.
Monochrome is in fashion. Suits designed in a single color scheme will be very fashionable and relevant. Steel gray and deep blue are very popular. And also pastel, delicate range of shades (mint, coral, caramel, champagne, pearl pink).
What to wear with?
A blouse is one of the most popular companion pieces for a classic suit. Blouses can be very different: men's cut, stylized as shirts, romantic with flounces and ruffles, low-cut and closed. Blouses can be plain or made in a combination of several colors, decorated with embroidery, an elegant frill, a bow, an original form of a collar and cuffs, etc.
Instead of a blouse, a shirt, top, T-shirt, turtleneck, thin jumper, etc. can be used.
In order for the image to look as harmonious and effective as possible, you need to choose the right accessories and shoes for a classic suit. No rough boots or oversized bags: an elegant clutch, neat pumps or closed heels. Laconic jewelry - chain, earrings, rings will complement the look.
Despite the fact that the traditional option for shoes that match a classic suit are shoes or ankle boots, modern designers suggest expanding this line by combining the suit with different options for sports shoes, for example, with sneakers or sneakers. Usually this image is typical for a youth or informal style. The jacket can be worn on a naked body, trousers are shortened, various decorative elements and unusual decorations are permissible.
An elegant straight-cut coat made of cashmere, wool or other material is perfect as outerwear for a classic suit. It can be an elegant raincoat, a luxurious fur coat, and a stylish sheepskin coat and other clothes that match the style of the suit.
Beautiful and stylish looks
A surprisingly feminine option: a graphite-colored fitted jacket and pencil skirt. The trim of the collar and pockets, buttons and a belt in black are in perfect harmony with gray.
A snow-white suit always looks very elegant and fresh. Especially when white is presented in such an elegant and feminine suit design. Laconic jewelry and a black bag complete the look.
