Stylists called fashion rules that it's time to break

The main fashion taboos are familiar to everyone, even those who have rather superficial ideas about fashion. And all because most of these prohibitions took years and decades to form, passed down from generation to generation. And now it's time to review the bans. Stylists called 9 rules that are no longer relevant and may well be violated.

1. Before going out on the street, you need to remove the accessory that you put on yourself last

Throughout the past century, this was exactly what was prescribed for a well-educated and self-respecting lady who wants to look elegant and fashionable. Now you don’t need to remove anything, but it’s better to add a couple more to the last accessory, just in case. The latest collections of Chanel, Gucci, Balmain presented confirm this.

2. Do not wear a combination of pink and red

This combination has been associated for many years with women of easy virtue from the red light district. Many considered this combination of colors vulgar and inappropriate for a decent lady. Modern stylists refute this. Even if some prejudices existed before, it was time to boldly part with them.

Today, this combination looks fresh and interesting. And if you remember that both colors have a lot of possible shades, then the flight of fantasy can be unlimited.

3. Do not wear black with navy blue

Today, such a combination is considered not sinister and not funeral, as before, but quite appropriate and even solemn. This mix gives chic and stylish look, even if the things themselves are quite simple, experts say. If the fear of looking ridiculous is still alive, then see how the designers of the collections of the brands Miu Miu, Gucci and Prabal Gurung made such combinations.

4. Do not mix multiple prints.

The rule is no longer valid. And experts are unanimous in this. The more drawings will be in the image, the more interesting and multifaceted will be the image. But when mixing prints, do not forget about the rules of visual perception, and therefore leave the stripes and polka dots with floral prints for later, but two animalistic prints or two different floral prints are just what you need to start with.

5. Sneakers and shoes only for sports

So it was. And for a long time. And now the rule no longer works. Sneakers and sneakers can now be worn with skirts and dresses, with business suits and evening dresses. Sneakers are comfortable and free, and practicality and a sense of comfort are now much more important than the opinions of others about the height of your hairpin.

6. A woman must have a white shirt, a trench coat and a black pencil skirt in her wardrobe

These things have long been associated with the images of successful women, conquering the hearts of handsome men and the heights of business. But is this all important to you? Moreover, both modern office fashion and attitudes towards trench coats are not the same.

7. Dresses and pants must not be worn at the same time.

And modern stylists are sure - it is possible and necessary. A skirt and jeans, if they are successfully selected and make up a single ensemble, this is a very interesting multi-layered solution. Skinny jeans and a shirt dress or a long tunic do not surprise anyone, so why should you be so surprised at a skirt with skinny jeans? Experiment.

8. Red lipstick is appropriate only in the evening

So taught our mothers. And mothers taught us. We are also trying to teach our daughters, but it is no longer possible, because red lipstick, if it goes to a woman, looks equally amazing both in the morning, in the afternoon and in the middle of the night. And everyone understands this very well.

9. A woman should not wear men's clothing

Coco Chanel, who put on trousers, once broke this rule. Now it's your turn. Women admit that men's clothing is very comfortable - the shirts are spacious, the pants are not tight, and the shorts, if they don’t fall off, then they sit perfectly. By the way, Crew, H&M, Zara and Forever 21 - there are things that are sewn for men, but enjoying unprecedented popularity among women.
