A CONTRADICTORY COMBINATION OF THE 1980s’ REBELLIOUS STYLES AND THE 1990s’ GROUNGE WITH FEMININE AND VINTAGE IMAGES BECAME A SOURCE OF INSPIRATION IN THE COLLECTION POUSTOVIT AW16-17

Fashion shifts like a spring breeze; in the blink of an eye your fashionable wardrobe becomes outdated, and the contemporary trend constitutes of entirely different styles and colors. Ukrainian Fashion Week, which has Den/ The Day as a long-term information partner, prepares fashionistas for the next season in advance.

For seven days the main podium of the country, Mystetsky Arsenal, had staged a competition of fashion forecasts for the next season by 86 designers in 56 shows. The Day was there. And here’s what we can tell people who follow the fashion trends.

Nearly all Ukrainian designers had abandoned bright, acid colors and chose moderate, but equally interesting shades for the season ahead. Creating an image of the 2016-17 autumn-winter season, they suggest using light – the colors are blue and gray, pastel beige, beige and sand, burgundy, steel, “coffee and chocolate,” “caramel.”

THE PRINCIPAL MOTIF OF THE ELENAREVA BRAND’S WINTER COLLECTION WAS TIME AND NATURE’S CYCLE

The fabrics of choice of the winter season are the following: artificial and natural fur, suede, cotton, velveteen, velvet, and wool.

The main idea featured in the forecast for the upcoming 2016 autumn-winter fashion season was layered cut and layering: imagine a combination of lace with a voluminous wool sweater and narrow beige skinny jeans (even if these things seem absolutely irreconcilable at the first glance).

The style of the autumn and winter clothing is loose cut. Robes, pencil dresses with bulky pockets, flared pants, and below-the-knee skirts should certainly fill up your wardrobe in the coming season.
