Courage, fantasy and freedom
Courage and freedom can be seen in the styles of Monse, Giambattista Valli, Elie Saab - open shoulders, high vents, loose-fitting skirts that do not restrict movement. The play of color is also interesting - contrasting details that make up a single whole, and softly transitioning shades of blue. The female figure is contoured correctly, despite the asymmetry of the bodice.
The hot days of spring-summer 2021 dictate their own clothing requirements. Maximum freedom of cut, color, and design were ideally embodied in the bright haven of snails from Temperley London, exotic fruits scattered on the heavenly Altuzarra dress, and cheerful Dolce & Gabbana ice cream cones.
Openness, simplicity, and comfort are also distinguished by the fashionable creations of Cristian Siriano and Celine with their soft, enveloping silhouette and eye-catching large splashes of color.
Another theme is freedom to the point of airiness, no restrictions, tenderness, beauty and grace. Irreal bluish colors, the fabric falls, only outlining the outlines of the figure, even the noticeable yoke on the Monique Lhuillier product seems like a floral cobweb. The creations of Emilio Pucci and Chirstian Siriano are like a summer cloud descending on the catwalk.
For spring coolness
The unstable weather of early spring and the cool summer evening require covering the delicate female body. A whole series of new products with long sleeves, familiar and unusual collars, presented on the catwalks, gives the creators of women's clothing a starting point for creating interesting styles for friendly parties and for everyday wear.
Feminine cut, neat stand-up collar, tight-fitting sleeves, and unobtrusive appliqué make this discreet dark beige Prada dress ideal for a business lady. The outfits of Tibi and Emilio Pucci are also interesting; stylish, elegant, although they have fallen off the fashion pedestal, they are quite suitable for every day.
Boho style dresses
Mostly boho style dresses are long. They are sewn in sun and half-sun styles and the colors are reminiscent of gypsy colorful outfits. Great for everyday wear in summer.

The main component of the style is vintage, so you can choose a dress at a second-hand store
Loose fit that doesn't emphasize the waist
The concept of “boho” comes from the word “bohemian”. Poets and artists without a stable income dress within their means, trying to stand out from the crowd. Therefore, the style is characterized by negligence, asymmetry, stretched top, loose shoulders. The main component of the style is vintage, so you can choose a dress at a second-hand store.
Features of the boho style dress:

- the relaxed look is emphasized by the dress model with a low waistline;
- the model can have straps or a bandeau neckline;
- the neck is usually round, square, or rectangular without a collar;
- the sleeve can be of different lengths, but must be free.

Advice! Boho dress models with layered skirts and a bodice that imitates a vest are suitable for cool summer evenings.
Glitter and shine
Fabric is the most important component of any women's dress. Bright, rich, shimmering in the sun, it creates additional volume and attracts attention. A black dress from Saint Laurent, a tight-fitting at the hips but loose at the shoulders, a red creation by Isabel Marant and a pale blue masterpiece from Kenzo are the hallmarks of the spring-summer 2021 season.
The sparkle can be multi-colored, like an interesting, complex cut Marc Jacobs confetti dress or the embodiment of an Alexander Wang idea that neatly fits a female figure with the glow of a white moon. A win-win golden sparkle is good even on a simple evening dress by Monique Lhuillier.
The noble sparkle of silver is beneficial for any model. A deep-necked evening dress from Marchesa, a short girl's tunic from the Versus Versace workshop or an amazingly beautiful voluminous creation, as if cast from silver, by Carolina Herrera - the color emphasizes the femininity and grace of the products.
Current colors and prints
In the next summer season, designers predict prints in African style will become especially popular. Colorful geometric lines and strict figured motifs will be present on most summer models. The striped pattern, combining shades of white and turquoise, will definitely appeal to lovers of marine themes.
Romantic and feminine natures will be able to choose delicate floral designs, and lovers of non-standard images will definitely like bright abstraction. The monochromatic model range will be no less diverse, but it is recommended to give preference only to certain colors.
Black
The classic shade is always on trend and ideal for an evening out. But if the dress model is light and made of flowing translucent fabrics, a black outfit can easily fit into your everyday style. Psychologists say that strong-willed and passionate people prefer this shade of clothing, which is probably why girls in black dresses often get the corresponding impression.
Red
This season's hottest color will remain popular next year. If you are a domineering, quick-tempered and courageous person, then with a high degree of probability you will choose a dress of this particular shade. A red long dress is ideal as an evening dress and will make your look truly unforgettable. For an everyday look, you can also choose this color, but it is important that the dress has a minimum number of decorative elements, a simple cut and is made from light fabrics.
Blue
Modest lovers of a conservative style often choose dresses in a noble blue color, which makes this shade almost immortal in terms of relevance. Girls who want to diversify their look a little, but categorically do not want to give up the blue tint, can choose a more intrusive shade of sea green, sapphire or ultramarine. Dresses in cobalt, azure and blue shades will help add a touch of romanticism and dreaminess to the look.
Green
This shade can fit favorably into any look, be it formal or casual, but it always attracts attention. Designers strongly recommend choosing dresses in shades of lime, mint and emerald.
Yellow
The shade of the sun is always relevant in the summer, because it is so warm and cheerful. A yellow dress can be one of the brightest things in your wardrobe, so it is best to combine it with more subdued shades of accessories - brown, burgundy, beige and blue.
Pink
A long dress in pink tones will add romanticism and naivety to your look. It can be an ideal addition to both casual and dressy looks and goes perfectly with almost all things in brown, white, olive, gray turquoise and blue and azure shades.
Violet
A dress of this shade will help add a touch of originality and mystery to your look. If you choose a purple dress, remember that it goes best with things in brown, pale yellow, gray, turquoise and orange.
Neckline is always in trend
A bare neck, shoulders, and upper chest always attract attention, framed by an interesting dress, doubly so. In the spring-summer period, the neckline is justified by nature; a deep neckline is an obligatory part of the dress code of ladies' evening wear. Clothing designers often turn to this detail, creating the most interesting, magical styles. David Koma bares the shoulders, focusing on puff sleeves; the classic Saint Laurent school is recognizable by its strict silhouettes and deep narrow necklines.
An amazing flowing dress decorated with embroidery from Temperley London can compete in originality with the unusual creation of Elie Saab. Isabel Marant and Giambattista Valli brought the perky girls who had gathered for the party to the podium. The Altuzarra outfit is for a lady who is busy with important matters in the summer heat.
Fabrics and textures
In the summer, items made from soft and light fabrics become especially popular, so dresses should be chosen from viscose, cotton, voile or lace. Dresses with mesh are now gaining enormous popularity, which can be either very revealing or discreet thanks to the play of textures.
Dresses made from fabrics that are too light may look wrinkled, but this should not scare fashionistas, because materials of exactly this texture are now the most trendy. What other materials do designers recommend choosing dresses for the summer season?
Chiffon
A dress made of chiffon is the most popular for the hot period, because it is incredibly light and perfectly breathable. Dresses made from this translucent material look great on girls with any body type. For young ladies with curvy figures, even evening dresses are sewn from such fabric, which look solemn, but at the same time hide excess weight well. Sundresses made from this material fit well into a beach look and go well with a swimsuit and clogs. For an everyday summer look, a chiffon dress is the most win-win option.
Silk
Silk dresses give a feeling of lightness and weightlessness. They perfectly emphasize the advantages of a sophisticated figure, but even a girl has minor flaws in her silhouette; with the right choice of style, such fabric allows you to perfectly hide them. Silk dresses are often sewn in bright and rich colors, which makes the look unforgettable. Previously, only representatives of royal families could afford such dresses, but now any girl can feel like a queen, dressed in noble silks.
Knitted
A dress made of knitwear is also appropriate in summer, but only if the material is really thin and even slightly glowing. Since knitted fabric is practical and does not wrinkle, it can compete favorably even with dresses made from almost weightless chiffon and silk. Such dresses are also good because they go perfectly with almost all elements of the wardrobe.
With the right style and size, a knit dress will show off even the most disproportionate figure.
Fashionable play of colors and contrasts
High fashion presents completely unrealistic, but amazingly beautiful models that amaze with the combination of colors and the play of contrasts. Dresses by Proenza Schouler, Christopher Kane, Yohji Yamamoto incredibly combine modesty and promiscuity, nudity and secrecy, classic and modern.
Dresses in one color attract attention with their details - puff sleeves, vertical ruching, a combination of corrugated and smooth fabric, eyelets and bows. The colors chosen are juicy and saturated - deep purple, bright blue, muted turquoise.
Bordeaux, blood red, scarlet - all shades of red paraded on the stage, exciting minds and feelings. The femme fatale from Celine, the strict and unyielding one from Emporio Armani, the seemingly transparent, airy girl from Cristian Dior.
Cute floral print
Floral patterns, fabrics, all over painted with large and small buds, leaves, flowers, twirling in a round dance - a characteristic feature of the spring-summer 2021 season. Cute youth dresses from Marc Jacobs and Philosophy, light, with wide fluttering sleeves, bringing coolness on a hot day, aroused interest among representatives of the fashion industry. A very summer light long Erdem robe can be worn by a lady over 20 years old.
Satin, silk, poplin are ideal in warm weather. Fendi, Carolina Herrera, Victoria Backham presented a fashionable line of dresses made from natural fabrics, quite naturally, with floral prints. The styles are diverse, multifunctional, suitable for a country walk, a picnic in the park, shopping, the colors are also suitable for business and office clothing.
Flowers are also good for elegant clothes. On the fashion catwalks there are creations by Michael Kors, Philosophy for quiet summer evenings and a playful model by Giambattista Valli for meeting friends or a cocktail party.

The eternal intrigue of the female body
Mystery, modest nudity, the eternal intrigue of the female body - the theme of the line of models made of transparent and translucent fabrics. They play on the theme of Christian Dior and Temperley London, enveloping young girls and older ladies in a translucent white cloud. Even the thick black tone does not seem so sad in Carolina Herrera's performance.
Candid outfits from Giambattista Valli, Fendy, which do not hide, but highlight underwear, do not shock; the unspoken rules of reasonable modesty are observed here. The styles are quite complex, with well-developed details. Of particular interest is the asymmetrical semi-open dress from Simone Rocha, with a closed, even puritanical bodice and a completely different continuation of it - a multi-level transparent skirt with advantageous embroidery trim.
Variations on the shirt theme
The spring-summer 2021 season has returned interest in the shirt, but not the usual office attire, but a shirt-dress, a shirt-tunic, a shirt in which you are not ashamed to go to a party. The latest version is presented by the Altuzarra workshop in blue, with an original knot at the waist. The youthful interpretation of the Monse tunic shirt is complemented by a red belt, and office versions are worn by DKNY and Fendi models.
The same cut, the familiar striped fabric, but the Ermanno Scervino suit is designed for a youth party, a beach walk, a picnic, like the top with a long skirt from Adam Selman.

Fashionable tartan brotherhood
The banal checkered pattern at Fashion Weeks takes on a new interpretation and claims first place in the ratings, while remaining the same cute, familiar, homely checkered pattern. A girlish outfit from the Peter Pilotto workshop, decorated with funny appliqués and a wide pretentious belt, is suitable for students on vacation, and a serious outfit from Carolina Herrera is suitable for older girls. The playful cut of the House of Holland model makes you smile - frills, flares, open summer shoulders and the same checkered tie.
Endless prints
Mysterious circles, triangles, zodiac signs and other images that defy description - a collection of clothes on the fashion catwalks of the world's fashion capitals. The model from the Creatures of the Wind workshop was indeed created by the wind, which mixed up the colors white-gray-black in cabalistic circles. Scalloped Emilio Pucci rings hug the figure beautifully, while shoes and handbag complete the look. A trouser suit from Mary Kartantzo, where a huge stylized zodiac circle successfully outlines the waist, is also not for everyone.
It’s as if hand-knitted circles from Alexander McQueen are folded into an openwork composition. The work by Missoni echoes this, now a truly knitted set, a multi-colored summer suit with clear stripes. Balmain also chose stripes, but vertical ones, giving grace and slimness to the lady.
Little black dress
This outfit, which went down in fashion history with the light hand of Coco Chanel, has not lost its relevance today. Almost all fashion designers turn to this topic, regardless of whether it is really small or a full-fledged evening outfit. The Carolilna Herrera open-necked model with a clear waistline and wide cascading skirt is universal. The work of Alberta Ferretti is also ambiguous; open shoulders and discreet decoration of the bodice allow you to wear it both in connection with a sad event and to shine in it at a reception. More definitely a dress from Celine, leaving little doubt about the reasons for sadness.

The classic combination of black and red, complemented by dropped sleeves, is elegant, like all Versace models. The Proenza Schouler little black dress flows around the silhouette, surprising with unexpected windows on the left. Proenza Schouler's solution is equally original - a wide asymmetrical striped skirt is interestingly combined with a plain blue bodice, decorated with slits in the form of leaves.
