Lingerie

History of lingerie style

The history of the lingerie style as clothing for the exit began with Coco Chanel and with her decision to introduce pajama-style suits into beach fashion. They were a simple cut of light fabrics and quickly took root among the girls, who soon began to wear outfits outside the beach - to the park, for a walk, to the store.

The classic lingerie style with shirts and tops appeared much later. In the late 90s and early 2000s, the direction had a noticeable decline. People became more modest and put aside combinations and satin tops, replacing them with more practical and restrained things.

A new growth in the popularity of the lingerie style began in the last 7-10 years - women and girls of all ages began to take to the streets in combinations, add light tops to the business outfit and wear pajama suits to go out. Fashion houses and designers are not far behind – shows often include collections of clothes in the lingerie style.

Over the years, Givenchy, Dolce & Gabbana, Celine, Louis Vuitton and others showed their variants of lingerie outfits.

Varieties of linen style

It cannot be said that this direction has any strict divisions, but for ease of understanding and composing images, you can divide all the outfits of the lingerie style into:

• Classic;
• Pajamas.

Classic linen style implies the use in the everyday wardrobe of tops, dresses-combinations, corsets, sconces, skirts. This is a sexier and more explicit part of the lingerie style, which is embodied only by girls and women.

Pajama outfits are more versatile – suitable for both men and women. The main outfit in this variety is a suit sewn in the manner of pajamas. It can be with trousers or shorts, have a different cut and color, and is also often complemented by prints - check, stripes, peas, flowers.

Pajama style can be attributed to a more democratic interpretation - it is ideal for those who want to dress stylishly, but can not put up with the use of a nightgown in an office or casual outfit.

And another curious feature - for the pajama style, suits "a la pajamas" are usually used, that is, they are sewn like pajamas, but originally intended for going out. For the classic linen style, it is quite normal to use things that are not sewn specifically for the street. For example, it is permissible to take a top from your working pajamas and combine it with a business suit.

Characteristics

• Light tissues. To create things in the linen style, only light, flying, sliding materials are used - satin, silk, batiste, twill. It is the lightness of the fabrics that helps to create a sensual, sexy image - different parts of the dress or suit periodically fit the shape of the girl, while leaving the flight for imagination;

• Plain clothes. This is a traditional trait that has recently often faded into the background. In the classical sense, calm, monochromatic fabrics are used for the linen style - muted tones, pastel, white and black. Modern clothing manufacturers are increasingly creating bright clothes with prints - leopard or zebra print, flowers. Choosing things with a bright print, keep in mind that in this case there is a risk of losing the lightness of the lingerie style and overloading the image;

• Lace and mesh. A frequent guest of linen outfits is lace or mesh trim. Lace or mesh is decorated with a neckline or the lower part of the product. Pajama suits may include trim on sleeves and lapels;

• Minimal or no decor. Clothes in the linen style dictate lightness, so overloading the images with jewelry and accessories is not recommended. Minimalist additions are best suited - simple earrings, a pendant, a light bracelet, an elegant bag.

Wardrobe in lingerie style

The basic wardrobe in linen style includes:

• Top. A silk or satin top on thin straps is a universal thing. It looks great with a business suit, casual skirt, jeans, shorts, palazzo pants;

• The dress is a combination. It is better to choose two models - maxi and something between mini and midi. The dress can be balanced with a jacket, cardigan, oversize sweater or worn as a stand-alone product with sneakers or boats;
• Pajama suit. A pantsuit in the pajama style is suitable when you want to relax a little and create a less attention-grabbing image;

• Sconce. A bra is a lace bra or top. It can be worn under the jacket, leaving the upper buttons unbuttoned, as well as under the sweater or cardigan. The most daring girls wear bras and just like that - with a skirt or shorts;

• Skirt. A light flying skirt below the knee is a great option for a summer outfit. Combined with tops and T-shirts, as well as sweaters, cardigans and jackets.

It is imperative that there are other things in the wardrobe - a jacket or jacket, jeans, shorts. They will help, if necessary, to balance the relaxation of underwear and make the image more restrained and serious. As for the shoes - it all depends on the occasion and the outfit. With dresses, suits, tops are perfectly combined and shoes - on different types of heels, and sneakers - white or black.

With accessories, it is better not to overdo it - minimalism is in fashion and it fits perfectly into a delicate lingerie image. Choose a bag of a small, understandable shape.

Lingerie style for men

Men need to pay attention to costumes stylized as pajamas. As a rule, this is a trouser version of a calm color - beige, gray, blue, black. You can combine a suit with a business jacket and a cardigan.

Looks in linen style

A long dress-combination is perfectly combined with classic trench coats. You can combine both similar in color and contrasting things. A bold and at the same time sexy image is obtained when combining a slip dress with a kosuha. It can be a classic fitted leather jacket, or loose, in the manner of a biker. You don't know what to wear a lace top with – just wear jeans with it. Another stylish combination is a dress combination over a T-shirt. The basic option is a white T-shirt and a black shirt, but if you want experiments, you can create brighter duets. A skirt in a linen style is perfectly combined with a "heavy" top in the form of a sweater or a knitted turtleneck. Do you think there are shirts and lace tops a place in the weekend wardrobe?
