A stylish blouse is always indispensable in the wardrobe of fashionistas. A blouse with a frill becomes the real treno of this season. Increasingly, they can be seen in the collections of famous fashion designers.
What is it?
Jabot is a French word meaning bird goiter. The detail, located in the neck area in front of the blouse in the form of shuttlecocks of different lengths and volumes, adds romance and elegance to the image.
The first appearance of this type of collar was at the beginning of the 18th century in men's suits. Later, after about a hundred years, the jabot became part of the female dress. And now blouses with a collar of jabot are part of the collections of fashion houses. All thanks to Karl Lagerfeld, the German fashion designer and photographer. It was he who first used the surround decoration in their collections.
How to wear
Who is suitable?
Elegance is inherent in every woman of any age. Therefore, such a detail of decor as a frill should be chosen with extreme caution. It suits not every woman.
For example, a blouse with small flounces (frill) is better suited for girls with curvaceous shapes. Due to the small ruches-flounces that go down almost to the edge of the blouse, your figure will visually appear thinner.
Large large ruffles for women and plus-size girls are not acceptable. They can add extra kilos to your silhouette and make it even more magnificent.
We recommend thin girls to prefer frill with large flounces that reach the breast line. Such decor visually adds volume to your chest and makes the silhouette more attractive.
Types of frill
The jabot is the detail of a collar, called to decorate clothes, adding to it elegance. This element of decor can be sewn or removable, to be of different shapes.
These collars can be composite or solid. They may resemble geometric shapes, such as square. They may be similar to a tie or a volumetric shuttlecock. They can be short or long, arranged as a single element or divided into two parts.
