How to wear silk items?
Silk products are in demand in any season. They are suitable for women and men, showing the status and dignity of the figure. The main thing is to observe a few points, which this article will tell you about.
General rules
Silk clothing is acceptable to wear at any time of the day, but the weather matters. In hot weather, silk allows air to pass through freely. However, in cold weather this is a disadvantage. Silk quickly absorbs liquid, so it loses its attractiveness in the rain.
It emphasizes the dignity of any figure, if it does not fit, but flows with the help of folds.
For those who are slender, things with a pattern are suitable, and for those who are fat, plain colors are suitable.
Silk items go well with suede and velvet, as well as wool, denim and lace.
It is not recommended to leave holes or kinks. Due to the smooth texture, any damage will be noticeable, just like the seams from the needle.
Shirts and tops
The advantage of women’s silk shirts is that they can be worn in formal settings and on special occasions. They are rarely fitted or tight, but look good on larger busted figures. Especially if you unbutton the top buttons. And for women with graceful figures, a shirt with chest pockets will suit them. They are worn untucked or tucked into trousers, jeans or a skirt.
Accessories will help highlight your look. Most often, mother-of-pearl buttons or silk-covered buttons are added to shirts. You need to carefully select decorations for a plain, smooth fabric. It is preferable to focus on small jewelry. And bright jewelry can add vulgarity.
Men’s shirts look out of place at a business meeting. It is better not to roll up the sleeves, because the soft fabric will not hold well. They go well with suits, tuxedos and tailcoats, especially those made of velvet.
Silk tops are also part of evening and daytime looks. An elegant combination is a jacket over a top, complemented by jeans, trousers or a narrow skirt. A shirt is acceptable instead of a jacket.
When using a top or shirt with trousers, it doesn’t hurt to emphasize your femininity with a handbag and heeled shoes.
Shawls
Not a bad option if you don’t have enough money for a larger item. The advantage is the ability to highlight certain parts of the body without jewelry or makeup. If the fabric is bright or colorful, it is better to choose a neutral color scheme for the rest of the look. But don’t forget about harmonious color combinations.
The scarf can be tied around the neck, the number of options is unlimited. There should be a deep neckline between the scarf and the clothing. Or you can place it closer to the collar to maintain proportionality.
It is also good as an element of a hairstyle if you tie it into a ponytail or make a headband. Small scarves (about 50 x 50 cm or 70 x 70 cm) that match the color type look good close to the face.
To highlight the chest or waist, a scarf is used in the form of a belt. Wide models (90 x 90 cm or 120 x 120 cm) are suitable here.
And if its color doesn’t suit your face or hair, there is another option – a handbag. An elegant knot on the handle or a pinned bow will complement both a business and beach look.
Dresses and suits
Silk dresses are also welcome in daytime and evening wardrobes. For business meetings, medium-length models with a stand-up collar are suitable.
Long or above the knees, especially with straps, will be more appropriate on vacation. The playful mood in such cases is enhanced by lace inserts.
It is important to choose an outfit that suits your figure. For those overweight, the best option would be a loose fit, with drapes around the waist and hips, made of matte silk. For slim people – tight-fitting ones made of shiny fabric.
Dresses are combined with jackets or jackets made of jeans or leather, as well as with shirts. Jewelry, a scarf or a handbag will help make an accent.
Silk suits are also popular. They resemble loose-fitting pajamas with bright patterns. They are more appropriate to wear in the evening or on vacation.
