Stylish dresses - a naughty playful look

In the late 40s, Western fashion came to the Soviet Union, where it was welcomed by most of the youth and condemned by the older audience. But in spite of everything, many young people wore bright clothes, danced their dances and created their own slang language.

Their clothes were ripped at discos, ridiculed at meetings and even expelled from parties. Thanks to the rebellious behavior and perseverance from the distant 50s, dresses in the style of dudes are returning to us. The style gained particular popularity after the release of the film "Hipsters". Let's find out a little more about them.

What's the style?
Hipsters are a new image of the post-war period. In the 50s and 60s, young girls preferred colorful, open or small-sleeved dresses that emphasized femininity:
- Some resembled a tulip in shape, since they had a fitted top and a fluffy skirt.
- The second had the appearance of an hourglass - these are tight-fitting dresses, slightly flared at the bottom. They came into fashion later.




Bright colors, catchy accessories, a high hairstyle together with a cropped length were a rebellion against the established norms of morality.

Length
In the Soviet Union, any hint of vulgarity was eradicated, and clothes were restrained.
If the tops of the dresses were designed in a wide variety of ways, then when choosing the length, they adhered to several options: knee-deep and ankle-deep.



Girls of that time played with the length, putting on or not putting on a petticoat under a fluffy dress.

Styles
Puffy dresses
A fitted top, a graceful waist, a wide belt, a flowing skirt and a multi-layered petticoat are integral parts of a dress called a sun-flared or simply A-line silhouette.

These dresses can be combined with a wide variety of necklines and sleeves.
The bodice is decorated with a rounded, round and V-shaped neckline or in the form of a bandeau; bows, lapels and collars are also used.




As for the sleeves, there are plenty to choose from here too:
- short flashlight;
- straight;
- semicircular;
- slightly covering the shoulders;
- straps are thin, wide and of medium width.




Direct
In vogue in the 60s, straight dresses hugged the hips and tapered to the knees, but there were also loose models. Nothing has changed over the years. They also use pockets and a slender belt at the waist, which makes it more sophisticated, and a variety of cutouts add zest.

As in the previous style, straight dresses are decorated with different cutout shapes. The neckline can be decorated with a round and V-neck, lapel, collar.
Sleeves - straight, short, flashlight, wide shoulder straps or over the neck.






Colour
If you are going to a prom, wedding or a party with a corresponding theme from the 50s and 60s, then the outfit should be bright, regardless of whether it is solid or colored.
In a word, screaming that their owner has an idea of style and is not afraid to stand out from the gray mass.

There are no restrictions on the choice of color. The main thing is that the color scheme suits you.
Contemporaries fell in love with models that combine different colors, striped, checked, and also very popular polka dot dress.






The dandies expressed their cheerful mood with the help of contrasts. They weren't afraid to mix yellow with red, blue, black and white.


This style is also characterized by large, catchy flowers and a floral print.



In everyday life, stylish dresses can be used. As a rule, they are monochromatic and discreet in color.



The color of the multilayer petticoat plays an important role. It is matched to a dress of the same or a different color. Looks seductive when the petticoat frames the legs and peeks out from under the skirt.


Cocktail and evening
Retaining the classic silhouette, designers are experimenting with the shapes of stylish dresses. An unusual cut of the skirt, American shape, feathers and asymmetry allow you to look stylish and creative at a party.






Graduation
Often at the prom we cannot decide on the choice of the model, and since the style of the dandies is back in fashion, now it will become a little easier.

Modern retro clothing stores will provide you with a huge selection of models, and if the outfits do not seem interesting, you can find a suitable dress in any evening dress store.

Now the designers have refreshed the old models and gave them glamor and shine with the help of stones, rhinestones, sparkles. These dresses are made of satin and satin crepe, which shimmer under the rays of the sun or artificial lighting and will help you look great.






Wedding
Wedding dresses of this style combine femininity and perkiness.
The cut will emphasize the dignity and hide the existing flaws in the figure:
- The top in the open version - refined arms, pretty shoulders and a graceful young neck.
- A cut with a narrowed waist will visually make the bride slimmer, and a multi-layered skirt of medium length will hide the imperfections of the hips and emphasize the slimness of the legs.

Wedding dresses are sewn from satin and silk in different color variations and with different prints, such as polka dots, checkered ones.

Models of classic white color with bright trimming (with colored petticoats, complemented by a belt, bow or flowers) also remain popular.



A harmonious image will develop if the groom's outfit contains elements in the style of dandies.



What to wear with
As always and invariably, the main rule is not to overdo it. Everything should be combined according to the pattern and color scheme.
Completeness will give your image:
- large brooch or beads;
- round or small earrings;
- a scarf made of lightweight fabrics;
- belt;
- gloves to match the dress.



Lacquer shoes and a handbag look advantageous. You can tie a scarf on your head.

Makeup
Bright makeup corresponds to a bright image:
- black arrows;
- shadows to match;
- blush;
- red lips.

Hairstyle
Stylish dresses are successfully combined with:
- lush hairstyles;
- seashells;
- different curls and styling;
- do not neglect the puff with volume on the top of the head, decorated with curled strands on the sides.
A variety of headbands, headbands, hairpins, bows and small hats are suitable for such hairstyles.

Dresses in the style of dandies breathe rebelliousness and playfulness, enthusiasm and risk, but at the same time emphasize the femininity and tenderness of the owner of the outfit.
Wear, experiment and remember the golden rule "You need to know when to stop in everything."
How I love these dresses! I don’t dare to buy, but I dream of making a birthday in this style. It's fun!
