Casual, Simple Style To Be Trendy

Casual wear has stepped into the spotlight at the ongoing China International Fashion Week. This follows a number of shows featuring luxurious furs and wedding gowns. But annual event is not only about what to wear.

 

Jeans are never out of date. But Chinese designers are trying to make the classic attire more diversified. And their designs show jeans can also be feminine. The solution seems unique, and impressive: jeans with chiffon, a canvas jacket with a silk vest, and bold color choices all-around. The sharp contrast in textures and colors also create striking visual impact.

 

Accessories are always necessary for a bit of a rocker look. Steel chains are common. But smarter choice options, including the integration of traditional Chinese patterns in designs of feminine skirts, are available. Sportive and simple styles, inspired by Italian fashion shows for men, are also on display. Linen shirts and tight-fitting cotton suits will help soften the rigid look of formal suits. And ties can also be colorful and bright. The geometric designs and stripes appear to preview next year's trend. And Italian trade authorities say these brands will enter the Chinese market very soon.

 

For some, fashion is a way of living, including what to wear in daily life. Asian designers know this very well.
