 | Retro has become fashionable again. Surprisingly, but this trend has been holding its position for already 5 years, since the Dior design house first shocked fashionable women, having offered them retro-fashion – 70s nostalgia. Design schools of 2006 offered models, worn by our parents in their youth age. For example, original-looking handbags, which were commonly called “Good-buy, youth”.That, what Dior brought into fashion, can be called returning to the past. Bright colors, riotous fantasy, audacious decisions – nothing is repeated, but at the same time everything is greatly familiar. Lace has again come into fashion. Lacy tops, camisoles with ruffles, mantelets in crochet, open-work knitted blouses. It’s just the time for going to a flea market and looking for… mm… a new dress there. Browse through your grandma’s clothes: probably a hit of the season hangs on a hanger and waits for its time. For women, virtuoso at knotting or crocheting, it’s time to open their own business this season.
Barbie style is returning. Actually it didn’t leave. Pink tantalizing mouth, dark eyeliner, blue eyeshadow. It’s Britney Spears who started introducing this style in due time. There appeared many followers of hers: Jessica Simpson, the most popular “Legally Blonde” Reese Witherspoon, as well as all our tennis players and figure skaters blond.
A leader among hairdos in 2006 year is long hair a bit past shoulders. Hair highlighting has fixedly come into fashion. This season it’s fashionable to wear natural hair: even though you had highlighting, your hair should look natural. Colors vary within one color row, no harsh and flashy tints, everything should be quite sweet and naïve.
