It's time to identify the main trends of the spring-summer 2019 season, and perhaps rejoice at some of them, or maybe try to understand their need for modern fashion.

It should be noted that the return of past eras in the modern interpretation continues. And do not approach this with irony - after all, "you cannot enter the same river twice." On the contrary, the recollection of the past can lead to discoveries of the new today.

So, what can we expect for spring-summer 2019? Which tendencies are already working in full force, which are not going to give up their positions, and which are just emerging timidly? In the new season, silhouettes are found both free and tight, straight minimalism and lush flounces, frills and ruffles. In other words, we have been given freedom of expression.



There are also no restrictions in the choice of style, however, now we are interested in exactly those that the designers have shown the most preference for. What styles did the designers find the most in demand? Which fashionistas should pay special attention to in order to emphasize not only their awareness of fashion, but also their merits.

Boho style, in which you can fully show your creative energy and hide figure flaws.



Victorian style... Feminine and romantic image of a beautiful lady. Sleeves, gathered around the shoulder, puff sleeves, stand-up collars, lantern sleeves, ribbons, lace and frills are returning. All this and more can be seen in the collections of Philosophy di Lorenzo Serafini, John Galliano, Erdem, Ulla Johnson and many others.



Military style... Designers see a girl in military style each in their own way. Dsquared2 offers quite aggressive looks that a brave girl will agree to, which, however, should be a warrior girl.

Talbot Runhof looks with military elements - for a more romantic person. Here the designer focuses on wide shoulders with a clear line, camouflage print, numerous pockets with metal rivets, shiny metallic fabric. However, in each image, a feminine and delicate nature is visible.



The style of dark aesthetics and romance... Black remains among fashion trends and for spring-summer... However, no one is surprised by black outfits in the summer. So in the warm season of 2019, the gothic style and dark aesthetics are offered by many designers, among them Alberta Ferretti, Akris, Alexis Mabille, Christian Dior, Ryan Lo, Chanel, Ann Demeulemeester, Christian Dior and many others.



1980s style trends. The 80s brought the image of a strong and business woman to our wardrobe. Acid prints appeared in combination with animal prints, neon leggings and short skirts, in our case they can be vinyl. Take note of the voluminous shoulders of jackets, jackets and even blouses, crazy colors and prints, a mix of both. From the 80s, you must definitely take a jacket with wide shoulders to demonstrate your strength and unyielding character.



The list goes on, because each designer prefers his own style, but more and more often there is a mixture of styles in one image. And if we take into account also our peculiarities and individual style, the list will grow even larger.

Men’s style, sporty, underwear, futuristic, grunge style, fantasy options will certainly remain among the leading ones ...



However, embodying a particular style in an image, what general trends should you pay the most attention to in the 2019 season?

Layering is currently at the peak of its popularity, and even in the spring-summer, despite the warm season, it declares itself in many collections. If you put on a skirt and dress, and then also a sundress, it won't seem like much, especially if the fabrics are thin and transparent. So feel free to put on whatever you have. However, stop and think ... because you want to look not only bright and unusual, but also beautiful. Take a look at some of the models suggested by the designers and compare.



For layering, you can create a great look if a lingerie-style dress and transparent fabrics, including mesh, take part in it.

Deconstructivism and asymmetry in women's fashion 2019

Asymmetry does not leave the catwalk. And already it would be possible to take it for granted or a necessity in modern fashion, and therefore not focus attention on it. Is it surprising for us - one sleeve or one shelf above the other, etc.



However, out of asymmetry, for several seasons in a row, a new trend has arisen - deconstructivism, which will certainly arouse the interest of many of us. Already in previous seasons, outfits began to appear, created from separate fragments of various objects.

Modern fashion is pushing the trend towards this kind of thing. On the catwalk, they are already in almost every collection - sets, as if created from two different dresses or from a dress and a trench coat, a dress and a suit. And the mix of prints does not surprise us at all. For some designers, the outfit turns out to be monstrous, like a nightmare. And there are elegant and even glamorous models.

1. Cargo pants

Pay special attention to cargo pants. Cargo Pants took a leading position among all models of trousers. They differ from other models with their sporty or military character, as well as a large number of pockets that are fastened with zippers, buttons, buttons and Velcro. These pockets are made with set-in and patch pockets, in the new season - with portfolio pockets.

Trousers look good not only in military or sporty style, with them you can create an image of a business lady.

2. Pants with elastic at the bottom

Unusually comfortable trousers - harem pants. This is usually emphasized by an elastic band, drawstring with a drawstring or a narrow cuff with a fastener. Unlike cargo pants, these models do not have as many pockets. They can be made from any fabric, both dense and light, airy, transparent, of any shade and print. Models made of fabrics such as chiffon or satin are especially interesting.

3. Cycling shorts

Not a new trend, but quite noticeable in the summer season. Therefore, it should be called. Everyone who has not yet put them on last summer, feel free to purchase, but carefully evaluate your figure... And if, despite all the shortcomings, you really want to wear it, take a look at the Blumarine collection for how to do it. Layering will help.

4. The dress is loose, very wide and fluffy.

Everyone knows that a free silhouette has long been popular - both those who are interested in fashion trends, and those who, looking at others, without hesitation, pick up innovations in their wardrobe. However, the dresses offered by Carolina Herrera and Marc Jacobs are unusual. Take a look at them to be sure.

5. Dresses with pants

This trend has been on the way for quite some time during the past seasons. She became one of the leaders on the podium in 2019. Dress with trousers can be suit version. With them, you can create a business or sporty style, wear dresses with jeans or dress pants. The set can be in one color, as well as in a contrasting combination. Evening options are of course possible.

6. Jackets and vests with large volume pockets

Jackets and vests with large pockets have become popular in many collections. How will women of fashion look at this? The youngest generation has already chosen them.Many girls like the military style, and therefore such items of clothing can be suitable elements in a military outfit. True, not all designers create a militant style, there are models in which pockets take on more sophisticated outlines, and a feminine style is obtained.

1. Broad shoulders

In the new season, a trend for the 1980s is proposed, and therefore coats and jackets will be with wide shoulders, for example, as in the collections of Balenciaga, Chanel ... and many others.

2. Patch pockets

I must say, the trend for patch pockets continues, however, for spring-summer 2019, unusual pockets are offered, both in form of execution and in quantity.

You should pay special attention to the patch pocket - a portfolio that is distinguished by its large volume. It really looks very much like a briefcase. And where to put such pockets - our designers will help you find out. Very often, these pockets adorn military-style clothing.

3. Bulky sleeves

You will say that it happened more than once. Yes, and it continues. Here are just among the familiar to us voluminous sleeves such as a flashlight or sleeves-hams, now we will meet sleeves-shells, sleeves with a sloping shoulder line and extended to the bottom. Now take a look and see how they differ from those that we already know.

4. Sleeves at the waist

Sleeves at the waist accentuate the waist. It is not easy to say how elegant it is, but the fact that this trend continues to live in the new season is already certain. And besides this, in parallel with the sleeves on the belt, sleeves that tighten the arms are getting into fashion.




Many trends from past seasons remain with us for the spring-summer period of 2019. For example, lingerie style, shirts, and shirt dresses. Dressing gowns, sundresses, ripped jeans do not leave the catwalk ...

But all this is offered in new interpretations.



High waist in trousers fell in love with both designers and fashionistas, because it visually emphasizes harmony and lengthens the legs.

Pantaloons a very convenient thing in a woman's wardrobe, to some extent they will replace both a skirt and trousers, and not only in light summer sets, but also in strict suits of dark romance.



Bare shoulders, slits on trousers, sleeves, along the line of the legs - all this makes it possible to demonstrate certain parts of your body, and there are many such fashionistas among us.



Sportswear practical and comfortable, and therefore stripes, which look more familiar on sports trousers, will adorn trousers of any model and even jeans for a long time.

1. Grid

If in the last season, the net was shown on the podium occasionally, then in the new one it occurs quite often. The designers decided to present it in the form of a fishing net, for which they use various techniques of its execution, including those made by hand using the macrame technique, tatting, crocheting, ...

To be on trend, weave a small mesh and throw it over your favorite dress. You can add a second layer of mesh fabric to a lingerie-style dress. The nets are made from a variety of materials such as cotton and nylon cords, ropes, leather, jute, beaded threads, and even plastic.



You can see many interesting models in the collections of Altuzarra, Christian Dior, Ports 1961, Louis Vuitton, J. W. Anderson, M Missoni.

2. Washed denim

Bleached denim, or as it is also called - boiled denim, will be one of the most popular materials in spring-summer 2019. Designers presented a variety of things on the catwalk - jackets and jeans, overalls and shirts, vests and sundresses, shorts, skirts ...

Among the many models, you can see painted jeans, with stickers and patches, with patches and embroidery, with scuffs and faded spots (like Tie Dye). There is denim presented in the patchwork technique. Styles of denim dresses repeat the most fashionable trends.And it's all in bleached denim.

3. Header Cloth

There are many brands in the collection of which designers have paid attention to the reaper fabric. Lightweight and weightless fabrics, reminiscent of 70-80s gauze, will appeal to many fashionistas, especially on hot days.

However, it should be noted that the header fabric is of different types. The best of these are natural crepes. Good and crinkled viscose (crash) made of artificial fibers. Mixed and synthetic headers are popular. The fabric of the header is soft, and lends itself well to drapery, and also products from it do not need to be ironed.

4. Crochet

Summer dresses, sundresses, trousers, shorts and other garments are gaining another trend - they are made using the crochet technique. One of the most feminine trends with intricate weaving, you will certainly love it. Most often cotton threads are used as yarn, so such dresses will not only be beautiful, but also comfortable on a hot day.

5. Transparent fabrics

They can be not only chiffon, organza, guipure, lace, but ... and vinyl. Vinyl comes in a variety of forms, and until recently has been used in products other than clothing. Now its popularity among designers has grown tremendously. And how will women of fashion respond to this? After all, the material is not convenient and practical, except in heavy summer rain.

6. Leather

For spring-summer, do not limit yourself to leather goods. If you look at the collections of Longchamp, Fendi, Burberry, Tom Ford and many others, you will not think about the need for such a purchase.

1. Tie Dye

Spatter print, faded fabrics are one of the main trends. If earlier a stain on a dress from paint or ink was perceived as a disaster, now the designers propose to do this on purpose, but it is better to apply blots, spots and light strokes on the fabric in advance, as if your baby had drawn his first drawings on the dress or skirt with a felt-tip pen.

If you recall the 80s, then you will say - this has already happened. In the new season, some brands have gone even further. For example, designer Balmain offers craquelure, and Issey Miyake imitates apartment walls on a dress during renovation, where old wallpaper or paint is removed layer by layer. MSGM designers did it even easier, they imitated clothes that had faded during washing.

2. Pop art

Pop art print is becoming more and more popular, so this trend can be called among the first. Clothes with pictures and bright colors constantly flashed on the catwalk. But, despite this, this trend should be called the trend of the younger generation. They are allowed to wear bright frenzy, although celebrities of different ages wear such things with pleasure, because they need to attract attention to themselves. And for those over 30, you can wear something similar, for example, modest inscriptions on a T-shirt.

3. Shawl print and patchwork technique

The scarf print continues its life on the catwalk and is improved. In some collections, this print played a major role. Many outfits were dedicated to him by the brands Chloe, Oscar de la Renta, Alice + Olivia ...



To some extent, patchwork helped the existence of the scarf print. Anyway, this patchwork technique prompted the designers to have many different ideas. For example, the denim in the Junya Watanabe collection, Coach also turned out to be patchwork.



4. Floral prints... You cannot pass by the floral print, there are always a lot of flowers, and we are already used to it. However, it is simply necessary to remind, because it is flowers, like nothing else, that can decorate a woman in this way.

5. Architectural prints... In the new season, designers have paid much more attention to the architectural print. Cityscapes and landscapes come to life with models' dresses, skirts and trousers.





These prints remain. Among the animals, leopards and reptiles are especially popular. Butterflies flutter on the dresses of Mary Katrantzou and Zang Toi, and designer Naeem Khan "blinded" his models from the wings of exotic butterflies.



No print can create the charm of polka dots, especially in black and white.



The cage and the strip conquered the podium and are not going to leave it. It remains only for us to choose the best options from the whole variety.

Camouflage prints. These prints are for warrior girls. This is not to say that with the popularity of the military style, they filled the catwalk, but they are.



A mix of prints can be called a parade of prints, where everything mixed up, and for some designers it turned into monstrous chaos, while for others it turned into original models.

Fashion trends spring-summer 2019 - a palette of shades

We have already considered which colors were identified among the most fashionable by the Pantone color institute. Now let's look at those that the designers themselves preferred.

In the coming season, many brands turned their attention to delicate pink shades, light beige, sand, peach, cream, creamy, yellow. There are incredibly many shades of pink and yellow, because the year of the yellow boar. It is to these colors that most designers expressed their preference.



The red color, which Pantone called - fiesta, as well as a delicate coral shade, were not overlooked.



Black. If the trends turned out to be the style of gloomy aesthetics and romance, then everyone, of course, understands that black is in summer fashion.

White. There can be no summer in which there is no white. On the catwalk there were collections that contained up to 70% of the outfits in white. And this color, as you know, has different shades. For example, you can dress in cream, milk and cream colors from head to toe.



Shine. Since there will always be futurism, because everyone thinks about the future, silver and metallic shades remain. However, do not forget that the brilliance of guests from the future can be accentuated by sequins and other reflective elements.



Gradient. Finally, will there be a gradient? Certainly. The effect of color overflows is back in trend. Smooth transitions on Oscar de la Renta, Christian Dior, Giada outfits look especially beautiful.



However, green and blue colors can make your look no less luxurious, and the designers have not forgotten about this. These colors remain and not only in monochrome, they are perfectly combined with other colors, especially the popular yellow.

Earthy shades will certainly be relevant in the summer as well, because most designers listen to what the oriental calendars say, therefore, “the owner of 2019 is a yellow boar,” who loves to lie in the ground, or even better in the mud, must be please. Since the military style remains, shades of earthy green, brown and khaki will certainly be required.

Decorative items and fashionable clothes

1. Draperies. Perhaps someone will say that this is no longer worth talking about for a long time, and it is so clear that draperies have been and remain. However, please note that they undergo different changes from season to season.

Cross draperies, which gather in folds and fit the entire female figure, emphasizing the seductive curves, have appeared for 2 - 3 seasons in a row. But design fantasies are inexhaustible. Some of them, taking advantage of the style of sloppy fashion, decided to simply "bandage" the girl's figure.



2. Huge roses and bows made of fabric. Roses and bows on dresses and suits. Instead of a scarf, scarf or jewelry, you can decorate your outfit with a huge rose or a fabric bow. See how the designers Marc Jacobs, Miu Miu, Manish Arora did it.



3. Lush frills, ruffles and flounces. And here, some designers also worked a little excessively. It turns out that you can dress in such a way that you will not be seen behind a lush cloud of frills and flounces. Do you want that? Then go urgently to the Marc Jacobs collection. But there are models that are unusually beautiful, and at the same time, spectacular.



4. Fringe and feathers remain.



5. Pleats. Pleats create an extraordinarily beautiful and feminine look. And in the new season, they will become one of the main trends. Pleats are especially beautiful in the evening version.It seems that it is no longer worth inventing anything for an elegant dress - it is enough to use pleating in a light flowing fabric. If you haven’t bought a pleated outfit yet, this is a must for the new season.



6. Embroidery. Tats, tatting, cutwork, English and artistic satin, lace - all this can be done in separate outfits, or all in one.

Trends that do not show themselves so significantly today, but may gain momentum and become the most popular in the future:

Polo dress.



Patchwork denim.

Fabulous images, the use of photochromic, thermochromic and luminescent materials.

However, when choosing outfits for yourself, do not forget that “... luxury should be comfortable. Otherwise it is not a luxury. " And also know that "... fashion dictators are sometimes wrong too ...".
