New Look Style in Clothes

New Look style in clothes is an expression of femininity and fragility. He appeared as a salvation from eternal haste and bored unisex clothing, in which comfort was the focus. In addition to convenience, a woman always wants to feel irresistible, so the collections of the great Christian Dior have become a real find for every woman, yearned for her true nature.

In translation, New Look means “new look”, “new look”. The impetuous and active rhythm of the life of a woman who had passed through the war reflected in the dressing style. Strict lines, men's garments, products that resemble military uniforms.

Christian Dior, despite the criticism of such a vision of fashion, offered women a different image, in which accent became luxury, beauty and elegance. He was able to give them a dream, returning the status of his wife, mother, fragile and refined nature. The woman was compared to a delicate flower that the maestro tried to emphasize in her collections.

In addition to the favorite hourglass style, the leading silhouettes in the collections are oval, straight and flared. Dior returned to fashion femininity, dresses with lush skirts, hats, accessories (gloves, scarves, bracelets, clips, jewelry). The style was different from street fashion and demanded a more careful selection of the elements of the image.

Many ideas of style were taken from the era of romanticism. He meant sloping shoulders, narrow waists and lush hips. Each created image emphasizes the fragility and femininity of nature. Since its inception and more than 15 years, “New Onion” has been considered a fashion for aristocrats and select sections of society. By the end of the 50s of the last century, it became accessible to a wide audience.

Clothing styles were distinguished by a cut that created different forms of a “flower” (bell, bud, opened):

• Hourglass: accent neckline, narrow waist, corset and puffy skirt. It was not practical, but came to taste, as a new standard of femininity. The skirt was made on the basis of crinoline and multi-layered taffeta.
• Straight silhouette, more resembling a pyramid. It is based on narrow shoulders, thin waist, and the shape of the skirt is more like a trapeze, slightly flared bottom. This silhouette is inherent in light and outerwear.
• Fitted style. Knitwear was not used at that time, so the silhouette was a form-fitting top and an oval-shaped skirt. The style of the skirt was narrow at the waist, wide at the hips and narrowed towards the calf.

Characteristic features of the New Look style:

• The length of the product should slightly cover the knees, creating the illusion of elongation and slimness of the silhouette.
• The shift of the waistline is 3-5 cm above the natural level, which allows you to adjust the proportions of the figure and visually lengthen the legs.
• Fitted bodice and sloping shoulders, emphasizing femininity.
• Open seductive neckline.

• Sloping shoulder line.

The collections of Kristan Dior were often performed in combinations of two shades. It could be a combination of white and pink, black and brown, pink and gray. Pink color for the couturier was a special tone, symbolizing the tenderness of the female image. Less often collections were diluted with green, yellow, red, blue and saturated pink dresses. Then prints became fashionable: cage, polka dots and strip.

The attractive image of a fragile and desirable woman beckons every woman of the fair sex.
