Beach-2007: high style

 Capricious weather like swinging on a swing - that soars to the heights of tropical heat, it scares northerly winds. But all this did not abolish the fact that we received this summer with all its pleasures, and because it's time to think of a suitable wardrobe. And to start it, of course, be a leotard.

Year after year, we offer a variety of options, and it seems that nothing new at all this, there can not think. In addition, at such small ways to come up with some diversity is extremely difficult, and all that can be original, invented long before us. Breakthroughs difficult to wait.

Often exactly what happens. In actual collections of swimwear is sometimes variation in colors (today, for example, in honor of monochrome colors, and the next year, all the designers are obsessed with floral prints and geometric patterns) or decoration. Designers limits the concise manner, or combined in such a simple article of clothing like finish of different times and eras.

But the general rule that does not change. Such breakthroughs, like, say, the creation of a bikini happen in the subject of ladies' clothes are extremely rare. In general, revolutions do not happen every year. But perhaps no to anything. The main thing is to be comfortable, nice and even with a share of originality.

It seems that this is what can be characterized by fashion season this summer. Recent swimwear this summer differ bright personality, and already for this alone can express gratitude to their creators. Interestingly, in most models there is no frank eroticism, though it seems at first glance, impossible.

It is very open separate bathing suits are still very much in different collections. But most of them are focused more on sports mood current fashion season than sexuality. The girl in a bathing suit from Dsquared2, Just Cavalli, Kenzo and many others - it is rather an athlete (or simply a modern lady, leading a healthy lifestyle, sports) than passionate seductress.

Modern women are too self-sufficient, too self-confident to assert itself with the public exposure of his body. What's in the 60s was a challenge to conservative society and puritanical morality, now transformed into a routine. This is a completely different way of thinking, and designers perfectly adapted to this.

Those who believe sporty style too asexual, can turn its attention to the supply of such fashion houses as Versace, Oscar de la Renta, Michael Kors, Lacroix, Giambattista Valli, who in bathing suits, as in the rest of their models are always feminine elegance. That is why, perhaps, they have so many black swimsuit - with contrasting white trim, embroidery, applique, lace inserts.

In such models are often used quite complex cut bowls, separate bodice literally built, designed for special facilities; lower part of the swimwear, revealing all that is needed, however the shape is far from subtle two triangles, a classic bikini.

And it is with such swimwear blends perfectly still topical beach accessories: wide-brimmed hats, turbans, satin, silk scarves, hand painted, large bags, belts Drogo leather with exquisite and complicated to figure buckles, braided sandals high heels or sandals woven same patrician , chiffon tunics.

Independently of the season among the separate bathing suits are called Bloomer (interesting options can be seen at Blugirl, Moschino and Stella McCartney), which in some sense can be attributed to the style of baby dollars. Top of the leotard is a dense cup on wide straps and low - volume spacious shorts, prisborennye decreased by an elastic band.

These swimsuits appeared in the 40s as the fruit of one of the mistakes of the then fashion, but suddenly began to demand, surprising freshness image. However, mature women are bored pretty quickly (besides they are visually increase the volume of the thighs), so moved into the category girly fashion. And now here is reborn as a proposal for independent and it held the ladies.

However, the retro trend - is the foundation of beach fashion collections this summer. And designers time retreated back very strongly - almost creation date ladies' swimwear as such. Once they were some overalls, hardly fitting shape, with sleeves of different lengths and chaste neckline.

Such unitard by modern high-tech fabrics, there is a current collections (eg, Proenza Schouler, Marni, Fendi). They create a very cute retro image and allow you to feel good at the beach, even owners of not too good figure. Besides hip enough to tie a bright sarongs - and you're ready to secular exit.

Heritage 30-40s - this closed-swimwear cases that were so brilliantly in his time Marilyn Monroe and Jacqueline Kennedy. This swimwear, pretty tight-fitting shape, with the help of modeling complex cut chest with a low cut-through thigh. With the help of these swimsuits create shapes in the form of "hourglass", which, by the way, is clearly in vogue now.

And another feature of the beach season 2007 - a high-waisted panties. By and large, this is also a legacy of the first half of the XX century, when the bare tummy was considered almost obscene. These panties (and they can be combined today as a very frank open lifami, and with quite chaste closed top) due to modern stretch fabrics and perform a purely practical function, slightly utyagivaya your figure. And on the beach is also not hurt anyone.
