Let's go east: stylists noted that modern fashion is increasingly striving for oriental traditions
A unique trend was noted by stylists who analyzed the latest world fashion shows - from Paris Fashion Week to Al Arabia Fashion Days - Arabian motifs in clothes literally burst into everyday life of women.
The mini-skirts are replaced by elongated models, or even skirts to the floor, replaced by tight-fitting dresses - wide and rather loose tunics and hoodies embroidered with ornaments and glass beads or rhinestones. It reminds a fairy tale about Aladdin’s lamp.
Oriental motifs demonstrating luxury persistently knock on everyday women's fashion. The most popular materials this season were silk, velvet and organza - traditional fabrics for oriental beauties. More and more often on dresses you can notice the Persian ikat pattern or its variations.
Increasingly, women wear scarves. At the same time, Muslim women have learned to combine hijab with high-heeled shoes, and traditional abaya with ripped jeans. The rest take into service only certain elements of the eastern fashion - wide scarves from organza, bright and catchy decorations.
Fashion historian Alexander Vasiliev said that Islamization of the entire fashion industry is coming. And Muslim Abayas are already included in the collections of Dolce and Gabbana, and fashion designer Michael Cinco, who is famous for his fabulous outfits in the style of the Arabian night, already dresses Jennifer Lopez, Lady Gaga, Mariah Carey and many other stars.
And experts believe that this is only the very beginning.
In the last century, women's fashion sought to be frank, with every decade women became more naked, and, apparently, the extreme moment of oversaturation came. And now, with short, transparent dresses and skirts and even their absence, you will not surprise anyone or interest anyone.
But some mystery, which does not reveal everything to the public, now, on the contrary, is becoming fashionable.
Fashion experts advise recalling how quickly the eastern turban won women's love, which ladies now combine even with rocker jackets, jackets, feathers and pompons. The next step is for Abaya, experts say. It goes well with sneakers, and shoes, and with jackets.
Abaya is a traditional Arabic women's long dress with sleeves and without belt. In national culture, it is intended to be worn in public places. The dress is often decorated with embroidery, beads, rhinestones.
Already, Abaya is often found on women who are not Muslim, and soon fashion for such a dress will be released on city streetsstylists are sure.
