Experts predicted the emergence of a trend to the “new elegance” after the pandemic.
Two months of isolation affected the perception of their appearance each. And the inability to get a haircut at anything: people, it didn’t matter what they look like. Fashion historians and stylists suggest two scenarios of exit from the quarantine.
What we read in the material “Газеты.Ru”.
Two months of isolation have changed our everyday habits affect our attitude to their appearance, clothing, hair styles and makeup. However, restrictive measures to gradually weaken Russia — the hope is that soon everyone will have to get out of pajamas and stretched t-shirts and to dress up not only to walk the dog and take out the rubbish. Here only we will come out of quarantine very different people, I think stylists and fashion historians insulation will not be in vain.
After the plague, people were forbidden to wash, just water bore infection. The result is a wigs, cosmetics and perfume, which masked the unpleasant odors, the dirt on the skin and hair. Prospects for such changes in our life fashion historians not see. Even the masks that we probably have worn all summer, call for no more than a symptom of a time that will not survive and will fall into Oblivion as soon as the pandemic.
the Expert believes that after the quarantine begins the era of the “new elegance” — after the Second world war to replace a brutal style came to lightness and femininity, as articulated in the direction of the new look by designer Christian Dior, who preferred skirts and a thin waist. “Given the cycles of fashion that always go on the principle of antagonism, we must come to the idea of a new elegance and new glamour — says Tim Ilyasov. — Due to the fact that the last five years was a popular idea of antimody, of glamour, “ugly fashion” — ugly fashion — now style will prevail the elegance and elegance”.
However, the expert notes that the feminist agenda and the theme of gender diversity — diversity — are still relevant, so the new aesthetics will not resemble the glamorous excess is zero or an exaggerated femininity of the style of the 50s.
“It will be a new aesthetics, which doesn’t make women solely as a sexual object in the world that accepts diversity, where women dress up not to please man, but to feel great and above all comfortable, says Tim Ilyasov. Such elegance n�� is anyone, and is part of the human identity”.
the Idea of a “new elegance” also shares Olga Antonova Johnston, stylist, researcher of fashion, which is now in Berlin. She is sure that beauty will no longer require sacrifice, and people would like to be beautiful. “The trend for naturalness and convenience has long existed in fashion, and now will only intensify, — said the expert. Many people will not care about clothes — even go naked if you want. Connection with nature, with the world laid bare during the quarantine, calling in the world of fashion serious transformation. Right now, no limits and restrictions, ostentatious outfits and show-off will not be relevant, roughly speaking, the naked people will run to hug the trees.”
— People miss each other, men miss women, it is noticeable, — said Olga Johnston Antonova, looking at released from quarantine Berliners. — Now it is possible to be beautiful without a reason, just because you want to please yourself and others. I went to a beauty salon in an extravagant red shoes from Gucci — I wouldn’t do that in usual time, here it is as bad form, but forgivable now.
According to Johnston Antonova, fashion has returned to its roots — to be a decoration of life. Now don’t we serve her, and she us, making the world around a little more colorful and brighter. Makeup will primarily be valued a healthy complexion and in clothing — convenience and its ability to protect from damage and exposure — that is, the primary function of clothing. The mask on her face — a foreign element, the reason for the inconvenience that you will want to cover up a beautiful scarf or scarf.
According to Olga Antonova Johnston, now in Berlin already weakened quarantine and opened beauty salons, hairdresser’s, but allowed to be strictly in the mask, and remove it is impossible, even when the master is engaged in cutting and coloring hair, then it should be removed from the ears and hold a hand over your mouth. On the street to wear a mask when you do this is optional.
“Some residents of Berlin, especially the Eastern part, where there was always a lot of artists and creative citizens who oppose the wearing of masks, I think this is an attack on personal freedom — she said “Газете.Ru”. But at the same time respect the safety of others and honor the laws, therefore, the majority of Berliners rule still compliant”.
the Prospect of wearing the mask creates difficulties in relation to make — up- if half face mask, then paint the lips and apply blush is meaningless. The emphasis in so��case is put on the eye makeup. While makeup artists can draw inspiration from the makeup Arab women who wear the burqa on her face and paint only the eyes making them more expressive.
“makeup Artists from Taiwan, where a mask to wear now sure, told me that there were a lot of women want to learn eye makeup”, — said Antonov.
Tim Ilyasov believes that now the makeup is popular queer aesthetics and camp, decorative shadows and lipsticks, bright sequins and glitter. “A certain elegance, redundancy, vintage, glamour and brightness of the image will appear in the next year because people are tired of the crisis and stay at home too; the monotony of the style, want to dress up,” said the fashion historian.
According to him, social networks have already appeared discuss bows that will embrace the users after the quarantine.
that just may come vintage, unique design solutions, suggested by analysis of the mother’s wardrobe in quarantine. As will now be appreciated individuality and rational approach to consumption, in fashion will surely include homemade outfits made from old things.
He argues with the fact that people will tend to dress comfortably first and foremost. “Elegant doesn’t mean uncomfortable — says the expert. — When we talk about glamour, we have the stereotypes of the past — skinny jeans, shiny form-fitting dress… But elegance can take different shape and different silhouette. We have ten years of sitting in my pajamas, the world was one of infinite softness, and the absence of oversize dress code, which must now appear.” He admits that oversized will have an impact on the silhouette, but gradually we will move away from the hoodies and sweat pants in favor of fitted, yet comfortable and elegant models.
According to the historian of a fashion, despite the absence of mass events and festivals this year, “little festival in the soul” will apply to the image as a whole, which will arise in everyday circumstances, going from the external to the internal quality. Invisible, sudovy makeup will remain as the base beauty trend but loud makeup will also be one of the trends.
