The English style of clothing represents the epitome of the centuries-old traditions of the classics, which originated from the old medieval England and with some minor changes has reached our days. A vivid example of the English style in women's clothing is, without a doubt, the wardrobe of the current Queen Elizabeth II of Great Britain.
The characteristic features of modern English style of clothes are, first of all, simple, but at the same time elegant forms, practical high-quality finish, high-quality expensive materials and strict restrained colors. Modern bright trends and bold creative in any detail of clothing or image, aimed at emphasizing the individuality here is not welcome. The ball is governed by conservatism and a sense of proportion.
Modern English style in women's clothing involves the following rules:
1. Strict colors - white, black, milky, blue, gray, shades of blue, green, yellow and magenta. In this case, any shade should be cold and to the maximum extent muffled. The lack of any drawings and prints, or low-key figures, for example, the classic "English cage" or the so-called "goose (chicken) foot".
2. Cloaks and coats of a free cut, slightly contiguous to the shape of the body, made of high-quality natural materials without any synthetics and with a minimum amount of leather and fur.
3. Dresses of a rectangular shape and a soft fitted silhouette, emphasizing the beauty of the figure, but not revealing large areas of the body. It is quite enough, for example, one or two incisions on the side or back or a shallow cutout on the chest, slightly opening the decollete. Suppose a truncated sleeve, but no more than three quarters. With a shorter length of sleeves to hide the bare shoulders, you must put on a jacket. The optimal length - from the classics (just above the knee) to the maxi (ankle and floor). To give special refinement, grooves are made along the chest, thighs and waist, collar and cuffs.
4. Skirts long knee or slightly below the knee. According to the shape of the cut: an inverted tulip, a pencil, with a smell, a fold, with cuts and a relief seam.
5. Headdresses - hats of rounded form, decorated with feathers, bows, brooch or finishing tape, but without bright contrasts and causing variegation. Classic berets are also welcome.
6. Shoes - a classic shoes, boats, and in the cold season - elegant boots or high boots with a straight top.
7. Accessories - scarves and neck scarves, jewelry in the form of thin pearl threads, brooches, rings, bracelets, hairpins, but only one of the above is desirable. And less glitz and complexity of forms! Preference here should not be given to the quantity and pretentiousness of the ornaments, but to refinement and delicate taste. Handbags are only strict shapes - rectangular, round, square, oval. A mandatory requirement for them is the preservation of the original form. Therefore, it is best to choose your bags and clutches.
Perfect additions to clothes in the English style will be make-up, made with soft muted tones and without placing noticeable accents and hair with a collection of a neat bundle or snail.
