"Spring soon!" - proclaimed favorite magazine Burda and headed for warming. "Spring is a time of new trends!" - I proclaim and invite you on an exciting journey to the origins of fashion trends.
Today, as part of our new Theme of the Month, let's see where these very fashionable trends come from.
What are long and short trends?
Are fashion trends purely a fantasy of the designer or some kind of general arrangement of a small group of people like the High Fashion Syndicate? I will not tire of repeating that fashion is a reflection of sociocultural changes in society. What the podium offers must meet the needs of the public, reflect their views on what is happening in the world, satisfy the needs and thereby find a response in society. So, for example, the image of a hyper-sexual but helpless woman is no longer quoted in society, expressed in a short low-necked dress, overly tight-fitting figure, coupled with high stilettos, doll curls and bright make-up. Girls no longer want to be an object in the hands of men, but want to be full participants in public life.
All this leads to the emergence of three global trends at once: new feminism, body positivism and the erasure of gender roles. The woman herself decides whether to sit on maternity leave with children or to pursue a career, lose weight or stay with mouth-watering forms. There are no more "model" parameters, since models can be of any size. There is no longer a single “fashionable” style, as a woman can be what she wants to be in her mood today: brutal, dynamic, fragile, feminine. Hence the once unthinkable once-neighborhood of the hyper-feminine work of Dolce Gabbana and the shocking, balancing on the verge of Balenciaga. There is no more age "X", after which you need to somehow specifically dress or taboo mini and bright colors. There are no hard and fast rules!
A sort of fashionable "permissiveness" and gives rise to a variety of stylistic options. For example, in the spring you always want to look feminine. And now femininity can mark not only the combination of “heels + dress”. Let's look at the variety of manifestations of femininity on the example of mini-collection models fromthe February issue of Burda Magazine "Signs of Spring", which became the new Theme of the issue.

Those same "heels + dress" in modern reading look like this. There is no excessive universal fitting and openness, hairpins and flounces, but this image does not leave doubts that we have a girl.

Pants-bananas may well become the basis of a feminine image, because the smooth and rounded lines of the cut of the trousers are very feminine. Complement them with a romantic Victorian blouse and graceful heeled sandals, and the sporty nature of bananas will leave only a slight hint.

You can go to the office not only in a pencil skirt or sheath dress. A great alternative would be a suit with an A-line skirt. Together with shoes with a small steady heel, the image will look dynamic and even a little girlishly perky.

Boho is not always a flyover tunic, jeans, and a suede bag with fringe. You can take as a basis a completely neutral blouse with a shirt collar and a skirt with a touch of safari and “hold out” the image with expressive accessories in the form of Cossacks, a gaucho hat and a saddle bag.

Suede flared trousers, patterned jacket Paisley, an unusual shape bag, large earrings - all the characteristic elements of a bohemian style on the face. But the jacket has such a playful peplum, the ankle boots have a graceful heel, and the trousers seductively encircle the hips, so that even the trouser image is full of femininity.
