Treggings
Modern fashion has presented girls with clothing hybrids unimaginable even a few decades ago. Treggins can rightfully be attributed to these. This name is derived from two English words: "trousers" and "leggins", that is, "trousers" and "leggings". In the very way this name is formed, the idea of these pants is hidden. In fact, treggings are a symbiosis of the most characteristic features of two once independent wardrobe elements.
However, the idea of such a hybrid is not new - back in the 12th century, very specific stocking pants designed exclusively for a male audience became widespread in Europe. The concept of leggings originates from these ancient models, followed by treggins and their closest "relatives" in the face of the so-called jeggings. The revival of interest in unusual clothes of this format took place in the 80s of the last century, and already in the 2000s, treggins appeared on the catwalks.
Peculiarities
Among the many advantages of treggins, there are five absolute advantages:
- The versatility of treggins is that they will easily become the basis for creating any image - from a sports option for a fitness room to a secular outfit, in which it is not a sin to attend the loudest premiere of the season. This became possible thanks to the combination of youthful, in some ways even street aesthetics inherent in leggings, and the refined respectability of classic women's trousers.
- Firming effect is achieved due to the fact that the material from which the treggings are sewn is denser than that used to make leggings. A girl wearing treggings can be sure that her figure visually looks slimmer and her legs are longer. The soft waistband of this hybrid of leggings and trousers does not cut into the skin.
- The convenience of treggins cannot be felt from the very first seconds - they sit very tightly on the body, in no way hindering movements... Treggins are very unpretentious in operation and storage, they practically do not wrinkle. Some models are made using technologies used to create thermal underwear.
- Much wider than leggings and jeggings, the range includes various color variations and a wider variety of materials.
- Recognition by true icons of modern style - Jennifer Lopez and Lady Gaga, Victoria Beckham and Rihanna, Kim Kardashian and Drew Barrymore like to appear in treggins.
How are they different from leggings and jeggings?
In order to thoroughly understand what is the fundamental difference between treggings from both jeggings and leggings, you must first determine the "degree of kinship". So, both jeggings and treggings are modifications of leggings, combined with different options for other clothes. Treggings are a hybrid of pants and leggings, while Jeggings are a symbiosis of leggings and jeans.
Unlike leggings, treggings can differ in decorative and functional elements., which are inherent, first of all, in trousers - arrows, pockets, stitching, rivets and fasteners. At the same time, just like leggings, they tightly fit the figure due to the elasticity of the material from which they are made.
The key difference between jeggings and treggins lies precisely in the material. A hybrid of jeans and leggings is sewn, which is logical, from thin denim or its close imitation, while cotton with an admixture of lycra is used for the manufacture of treggings, which gives the final product a visual resemblance to leather trousers.
The texture of jeggings allows for the decor inherent in classic jeans models, while treggings tend to imitate the appearance of tight trousers.
Models
Due to the fact that treggings can be made from different materials, they can mimic both the shiny texture of glamorous leather pants and retro-silhouettes of pants, as if straight from Woodstock - hippie aesthetics in recent years has consistently been among the main trends.
The design feature of treggins is that the soft belt does not cut into the belly, makes them ideal for ladies who are in any month of pregnancy. Such models are distinguished by a high knitted garter that covers the tummy and does not put pressure on it. It is noteworthy that treggings for pregnant women can be worn even after the birth of a child - after all, their tight-fitting texture continues to wrap very tightly but neatly around the figure.
Practicality combined with a stylish look makes treggings one of the most favorite things for young fashionistas. Children's treggings, which any girl will be crazy about, are decorated with decorative elements, prints and appliques.
