Asian style of dress and its features


It is worth starting with the fact that the Asian style really has its own characteristics and differs from the usual Western or European ones. Even the items of some mass-market brands are created taking into account the preferences of local residents.

What features can be distinguished in the Asian style?

freedom


Here is both freedom of expression and freedom in clothing in the literal sense. Oversize is popular in China like nowhere else. Asian fashionistas skillfully create sets of several voluminous items without creating a baggy effect. The images look harmonious and, despite their volume, emphasize the dignity of the figure.

To whom and how you can wear oversized.
The biggest misconception is that oversized clothes are only suitable for tall and slender girls. In fact, everyone can wear bulky clothes, regardless of body size.

Try to follow these guidelines:

  • Open the thinnest parts of the body: wrists, ankles, neck
  • Shift accents to the part of the body that you want to emphasize - a belt to highlight the waist;
    trousers or a skirt with a print to emphasize the legs;
    bright top - for the opposite effect.

  • And most importantly, find your balance between being too snug and too baggy to make things work for you.

Imperial layering


Ever since the time of imperial rule, the wealthy Japanese and Chinese had the custom of wearing 7 or more robes one on top of the other. This trend has continued to this day. On the streets of Shanghai, every now and then there are guys and girls, on which you can count several layers. And even the hot summer season is no exception.

How to combine

The best thing is to play on contrasts:

  • Textures. Combine embossed and smooth fabrics, thick and light, matte and glossy, etc.
  • Prints. A layered but monochrome kit can look a little boring. Try adding a printed item to this look. In addition, you can combine 2 or more items with different prints. However, you need to be careful with this so as not to overdo it.
  • Colors. This is another pretty simple yet beautiful way to combine things. In addition to adding a bright accent to your look in the form of a single piece of color, it is possible to achieve mastery by combining several colors or shades in one set. The diagram of harmonious combinations of colors on Itten's circle can help you with this.

Mini trend


The trend for mini skirts this season has been seen at the shows of many famous brands. Is this a trend in Asia? For a long time! Mini skirts and shorts have become a completely common wardrobe item and are not a way to emphasize sexuality.



How to wear a mini and not look vulgar.

There must be balance in the image. Therefore, you can wear a mini skirt and look stylish using the following style techniques:

  • The mini skirt can be balanced with the top, wearing a bulky sweater, shirt, or using layering.
  • An elongated oversized jacket in a masculine style is also perfect.
  • For simple looks that are not intended for an evening out or a stylized event, straight or trapezoidal skirts are suitable. It is better to give preference to fabrics of dense or medium density: leather, suede, denim, etc.




Why are we talking about these trends? After all, they are popular not only in Asia, but all over the world. However, it should be borne in mind that it all began back in the distant 13th century, when the Polo brothers made their journey across Asia and took many ideas with them. Not everything is a copy made in China. Today, countries such as South Korea, Japan and China have a great influence on the formation of world fashion trends. So if you want to be trendy, take a closer look at the Asian style.
