Initially, English fashion developed not without the participation of French. It was France that dictated its own rules of style, and this continued until the fashionable revolution. After that, English fashion trends gained independence and ceased to depend on French ones.

Soon after these events, fashion in England began to develop and change rapidly. In the first half of the 19th century, the main features of the style were identified, which we can observe today.
At that time, ladies who wanted to look perfect had to work not only on their wardrobe, but also on their manners.
In the distant past and today, the English style is distinguished by its main characteristics: it is very simple, elegant, comfortable and strict. All things from this direction are made of high-quality materials and fit perfectly on the figure.

Although historians and experts talk about the turning point of the 19th century, in fact, the style began to emerge much earlier. Its beginnings appeared in the XV-XVI centuries. This was the time of the English aristocracy, which had a significant influence on the fashion of that period.
The aristocrats had their own life characteristics and moral principles. In those days, men and women spent a huge amount of time choosing toilets. People tried to look as elegant and fashionable as possible.

Lush and colorful things were put in the farthest corner. The appearance of fashionistas and fashionistas has always turned out to be strict, laconic and restrained.
The main features of the English style have survived to this day, but the fashion trend itself does not stop developing over time. This fact allows us to call this direction a permanent classic.

Hipster
In the forties, a youth subculture appeared in the United States, to which hipsters belonged. At first, this was the name given to fans of jazz music and those people who were connoisseurs of art.
Today, hipsters are young people (15-30 years old) who are constantly looking for something new in music and film industry and cannot imagine life without modern culture and art. Such fashionistas and women of fashion prefer to follow a special style of dress.
The foundation of this fashion trend is the timeless vintage intertwined with modernity. In the wardrobe of hipsters, there are always skinny jeans and bright sneakers. Their youthful looks do not do without platform shoes, a variety of scarves, large-frame glasses, various hats, plaid shirts, shorts and T-shirts.

Vanguard
The famous Vivienne Westwood introduced the avant-garde to the English classics. She wanted to push boring gray into the background, adding bright colors and original accessories to stylish looks.
Today, the avant-garde is the real embodiment of the rebellious spirit. This fashionable trend knows no frames or boundaries. Vivienne added non-trivial decorative elements to the already established style: pins, rivets and embroidery.

clothing
The style of the Queen of England is the real standard of this fashion trend. Ladies from all over the world believe that the resemblance to royalty makes them perfect. But reincarnating as a true lady is not so easy.
To do this, you must follow some rules.
- It is recommended to dress up in clothes that have a fitted or tight cut. This applies to jackets that fit a woman's body, knee-length skirts and laconic dresses with a minimum amount of decorative details.
- There must be a classic-cut suit in the wardrobe. A similar outfit was designed by the famous Coco Chanel about a hundred years ago. At that time, on the catwalk, ladies showed tapered trousers, tight-fitting skirts and solid jackets. The strict suits were borrowed from the men's wardrobe and fit perfectly into the elegant feminine outfits.
- Be careful with accessories. Every English lady has leather gloves and charming scarves in her fashionable arsenal.
