Several thousands
years ago, in ancient Rome, the tunic as the baggy clothing of the simplest tailoring,
with cut outs for hands and the head, equally appropriate for men and women.
The designer tunics of today are not like the old versions of tunics in regards
to length. Today trendy tunics successfully complement the ensembles in casual
style and the business-like wear as well finding its place in seasonal
collections of fashion houses. Light and feminine tunics in boho style are the
best for warm spring and summers season, though by the collections of
autumn-winter 2010-2011 show, fashion designers do not plan to refuse this
garment of women wear when creating collections for the autumn wear.
The coming spring season
2011 will be exclusively varied from design offered by fashiondesigners and from the point of view of trendy accessories.

variety of designer handbags for the coming spring season, the new collections
show some general trends. So, one of the trendy accessories of the coming season
is clutch, and the key parameter when choosing stylish handbags is the color. Many
fashion designers have turned the clutch into the perfect alternative for

Some time ago
the rubber boots were the accessories we used to wear in summer to autumn seasons
when working in gardens or going to pick up mushrooms in the woods or going
fishing. You see, the function of rubber boots was quite practical: to protect
feet from soaking. Today rubber boots is the other fashion trend among footwear.
The fashion is changeable, the world favors today for rubber boots considering
them as the wholly functional footwear.
When a bride looks for the wedding gown,
everyone cost to her are involved in this seriousand important activity since everyone realizes the meaning of the gown.
And yet, choosing the dress for
bride’s mother is far more substantial and crucial thing to realize to this solemn
event. This is a real problem that takes several months to opt for the
appropriate dress and this is quite logical. Most reputed and unknown brands offer
bridal gowns for every taste, preference and budget, whereas only some of them
take care of the ensemble for the most important guest at his function –
bride’s mother. Moreover, most brands still hesitate to launch collections for mature
women and thus, the hunt for the apt dress for the formal and ceremonial event
is spaced out for weeks for reasonable excuses.
Today, fashion brands welcome children as their customers
as much as adults. The majority of celebrated fashion designers are to some
extent involved in the production of children's clothing; from Stella
McCartney, whose collection of children's clothes for the Gap was so stylish
that it became popular with older customers, to Dolce&Gabbana, Prada, Ralph
Lauren, and Dior among many others.
Tunic today
is the most popular and comfortable wear for summer time. This is too light and
sexual to attract attention to women and this is one of reasons why it is so
highly demanded for many seasons. A tunic is perfect clothing for the heat and
on the top of it, it is the best wear to visually correct the shapes if not
ideal. Presently we face with various styles and fabric for tunics and to some
particular extent they are all drawn towards the roots – the ancient civilizations
where they originated from.
The fashion
collections of the pending autumn-winter 2010-2011 season celebrated the departure
of several trends at once being in favor before. First, fashion designers in
the majority of them refused from military style. Two seasons were given the
chance to wear army jackets with intentionally high shoulders and militarized
furniture elements, though the new season is completely free from military
spirit. Second, the other trend almost forgotten
in the autumn season was borrowing some elements of men’s style presented in various
manly jackets offered by fashion designers to enjoy this spring matched with
frivolous shorts or skirts. The new autumn collections have nothing to do with
the above-said trends.
The period of
60s of the previous century were crucial for most spheres of life, that was the
period of social revolutions to affect people considerably. The society was overwhelmed
with new achievements in fashion industry, cosmetology and hairstyle. The
style shaped to be so trendy in 60s and so innovative is called retro today.
The coming autumn-winter
season 2010-2011 turned to be the mature and at the same time the most realistic
from the point of view of the basic tendencies of the women’s apparel presented

fashion is the mature femininity and elegance of the classic style which is
used by fashion designers deciding against the extravagant designer solutions
in favor of strict and laconic style. And therefore, most fashion collections
demonstrate the dominance of classic shoes without any extraordinary shapes and
fascinating heels, with least of decorative elements and the middle height of
heels.
About a hundred years ago the fashion for women experienced
the revolutionary trend- trousers which almost replaced dresses. Till then the
image of a woman was kept stale since only dresses fit tightly. Today dresses are not used that much
preferring practical approach to romantic style. However, apparel of today is
nothing without the previous experience, both benefits and failure. Classic dresses
related to particular historical events and epochs regularly come into our life
in full extent or in some details, which is more logical, that accentuate
femininity and traditions as they were in the past.

high socks and thigh high socks which are trendy today, though stockings is the
only garment of women’s wardrobe which still excites men and evokes strong emotions.
Many artists, poets and photographers glorified stockings in their works. The art
of modern erotic photography provides the special tendency that sings for beautiful
wmen’s legs in alluring stockings.
Lingerie for women was just the plain underwear until the 20th century when it became the mean self-expression, as the subject of esthetic admiration. A piece of lingerie seen in between the women wear looked quite shocking to be shame and no one thought of designing luxury items based on lingerie, leaving alone works of art.

back it was something different.

Six years later, in 1996, the Chopard House presented its Mira-Bai, the fragrance which is still in favor among women keen on oriental scents. Mira-Bai shows no intentions to compete with such a fashion-setter in the sphere of oriental compositions as Guerlain Shalimar, though the fragrance by Chopard takes its niche among the classic perfumes in the market of oriental perfume.
Perfume launched y the Japanese brands or the one inspired by the Japanese culture is something so special in the international market of perfume. Unlike the other fragrances produced in bulk, such perfume with the traces of Japanese inspiration and life surely exert attention and this is reasonable: it is not only the perfume to market and ear money but the whole philosophy, covert but absolute. So, most perfume launched by the famous Japanese culture followers take their niches in the global market, like Kenzo and Issey Miyake. Issey Miyake launched the genially iconic fragrance of the 90s with such a simple and unpretentious name as Issey Miyake L'Eau D'Issey.
