Bolero - for a spectacular finish image

The current bolero is a “hello” from the Spanish bullfighters, which has reached our time with almost no changes. Then this part of the men's suit was an open vest or short sleeveless jacket.

The main feature of this wardrobe detail is the absence of a fastener, sleeves and a shortened cut. Of course, women could not miss such a variation of clothes and gladly moved the bolero into their wardrobes.

In the women's wardrobe, the bolero has undergone some changes: there were options with sleeves, with lacing, clasps, and even options that were extended at the back, some “tails-boleros”.

But their advantages have remained unchanged - still the bolero is an element of clothing that can hide a lot of flaws and emphasize its advantages.

So, wearing a bolero, the girl visually lengthens the figure and emphasizes the bust. In addition, choosing a bolero with sleeves, you can hide full arms or excessively large shoulders, giving the image more grace.

You can pick up a bolero for almost any dress that will bring a zest to the image. This is a unique piece of wardrobe, which can change the whole image. If the dress or top looks too simple - the bolero will fix it.

If you need to add a bit of femininity and coquetry - the bolero is again at your service. In addition, it is an indispensable option to keep warm in cool weather without compromising comfort and the image created.

Thanks to the designers, the bolero can be chosen for any occasion. There are a dozen styles, which are united only by one common feature - a shortened cut. Conventionally, they can be divided into several categories:

• Bolero as outerwear. Jackets, fur coats, and even coats, made in the bolero style, have been waiting for their owners in stores for years. The option, of course, is somewhat extreme for those who live in cold climates, but even where the temperature drops to a deep minus in winter, if their lovers of winter boleros. First of all, the shortened outerwear is liked by young ladies who spend a lot of time behind the wheel - then the bolero becomes indispensable.

• Bolero as part of everyday wardrobe. Variations on the theme of short jeans, sweaters and sweatshirts, as well as sweatshirts and sweatshirts with or without a hood, are ideal for creating a city image. This is the case when the bolero is an independent part of the image, beloved by many girls, and designers sew such things in casual or even sporty style.

• Bolero as a special element. Often, festive, evening dresses are immediately sold with a bolero made of partner fabric or, on the contrary, in a contrasting color. This item of clothing has always been popular since the days of balls, and to this day, girls coquettishly cover their shoulders, if the outfit allows it or even requires it. The bolero is combined not only with bustier dresses or without sleeves, but also with tops that open the décolleté area, many designers also offer two-piece trouser suits, where the jacket is successfully replaced with a bolero with a long or short sleeve.

Also, the bolero is divided into two variants “according to the season” - winter and summer. Winter models can be knitted, cashmere or leather, as well as made from fur.Perhaps this option is not so practical, but it allows you to look elegant and still not freeze, if you do not mean a long stay on the street.

Summer options are indispensable for office employees - in hot weather I want to choose a dress easier, and a bolero will perfectly complement even the most open sundress, if the need arises. Thus, you can always be ready for a business meeting at the expense of comfort.

Curiously, in the wardrobe of a modern woman, the bolero took place twice - both as an independent element and as an accessory. In the first case we are talking about the bolero, which are self-sufficient. Consider their types in more detail.

Bolero as an element of evening dress can simultaneously become a highlight of the image, and a functional thing. Throwed on the shoulders, the bolero does not make the image heavier, but it will warm its owner if the event takes place in a cool room or in the cold season.

Lace, satin bolero, as well as decorated with embroidery, rhinestones or sequins in a state of "pull" a modest outfit and forgive even the absence of other accessories. In this case, the bolero can be both more classic, decorating an evening dress, and hooligan, ultrashort - for a party at the club.

Another version of the "independent" bolero is an option for a wedding or wedding. In the first case, the bolero is useful in the registry office to create a more rigorous image, it will save during the photo shoot if the bride shudder, help diversify the outfit in the photos.

In addition, the bolero will help to hide the flaws of the figure or skin - if the bride has problem skin in the back or shoulder zone, this item of clothing will come in handy.

At the wedding the bolero will also play an important role - depending on the model, the bolero will help cover the neckline, arms and open back, the model with the hood can eliminate the veil.

Also, the bolero "penetrated" into such a sphere of life as sports. The girls choose this detail for training - in particular, to protect the shoulders and neck during warm-ups.

The bolero does not constrain movements, but at the same time warms the shoulder girdle, helping to avoid injuries and sprains of muscles. Also, the bolero is part of the costume, for example, at the performance of gymnasts. He does not interfere with the athlete to perform the necessary elements of the room, while making her image spectacular and spectacular.

Bright bolero tops are used as a form for training in fitness, while practicing on a pole or canvas, dancers like this detail of the wardrobe. Such boleros are sewn from a fabric that is easy to wash and dry quickly, which allows you to wear them comfortably every day.

Despite the fact that the bolero is initially a sleeveless jacket, today designers sew them with any sleeve length or traditionally without it at all. Bolero with long sleeves can be used to warm up, hide some hand flaws, or simply make an image of mystery.

Now you can choose any style of sleeves of such length - fitting or flared, options with a "loop" for the thumb or with a cuff, fastened with a button.

There are also shortened sleeves, they are also called "three quarters". With their help, you can create an image of a fairy-tale princess, if it is a fur bolero, or just bring convenience and comfort to a casual look.

Variants with a short sleeve or without it - summer or "on a special occasion". These can be denim sleeveless jackets decorated with rivets or bold leather options, or lightweight bolero t-shirts for every day.

As for the length of the bolero, this is a subjective option.Regarding the classic jacket or cardigan, of course, the bolero is a shortened version, but its length is always the decision of the designers.

It can be a virtually weightless product that ends in the armpits and looks more like an accessory than an item of clothing. But, at the same time, the bolero can reach almost to the trouser belt, and if the options are shortened in the front, and in the back, they go down to the knees.

Knitted bolero is a trend with which designers do not part from season to season. And they knit this element of the wardrobe and so that it warms its owner, and so as to preserve the texture of the knitting, in fact allowing him to wear a bolero even on a hot day.

Knitted options can be office or everyday, smart or sporty, modest or sexy.

Openwork bolero made of cotton or silk will perfectly fit into the summer wardrobe, and models made of mohair or “grass” are universal - they can be put on in a cool July evening, and in the office during the cold season.

Knitted patterns that imply large “gaps” in the pattern are well suited to the dress - they are not too warm, but they give complement alongside. Depending on the material from which it is made, such a bolero will decorate both a sundress and an evening toilet.

Girls with magnificent forms for some reason often underestimate the bolero and completely in vain. But it is precisely this part of the wardrobe that is capable of appealingly raising the bust, while visually reducing hands. In this case, the bolero will not look cumbersome.

The main rule is to choose a bolero with sleeves - “three quarters” or long, and it is also reasonable to approach the choice of size. The bolero should “stick” into the body, but at the same time it should not hang, giving extra volume.

It seems that all fashion trends are applicable to the bolero at once. In the new season at the peak of popularity and denim models - both calmer and decorated with studs and rhinestones, and options from satin and guipure, and knitted bolero, which designers offer for every taste and color.

New trend - bolero-vests that have an open back. Designers have made this part of the wardrobe independent, balancing on the verge of evening and office style. Another popular version of the bolero - made from fine yarn, but in a large knitting.

Sable, arctic fox, fox or rabbit, as well as mink boleros - all this designers offer both in a classic version and in all sorts of variations and combinations. You can choose, starting from your own taste and financial capabilities.

Another “fundamental” version of the bolero is leather. Shortened leather jackets do not go out of fashion that season, and the variety of models allow you to wear them as fans of rebellious style, and lovers to feel the reliability and comfort in everyday life.

Designers did their best so that girls of any color type could choose a shade necessary for them - a bolero, nevertheless, this is a thing that is worn close to the face and the color is very important in this case.

Delicate shades are relevant for light, lace or openwork products - they are natural, golden or sandy tones, shades of gray. Variations that can replace outerwear are more juicy - here you can find both purple and purple boleros, variations of a deep red color.

First of all, the bolero is the perfect complement to the dress of almost any cut. Bolero can cover bare shoulders or emphasize the chest, become a frame for a chic outfit, or act independently in the foreground.

At the same time, the bolero does not require any special shoes - in the case of evening dress, these can be heeled shoes or oxfords, closed boots or half boots.
