Flying Chiffon Tunics

While we have not yet reviewed the fashionable tunics of 2017, we confidently declare that this is one of the most comfortable things in a woman's wardrobe. If you have never encountered the choice of a tunic before (which, of course, is impossible in itself), let's define together what it is.




Season novelties

So, a tunic is a spacious women's blouse, similar to a long shirt that covers the buttocks. It is usually of a simple cut. Can be decorated with ruffled sleeves or a belt to accent the waist. It also resembles a short dress, but as an independent wardrobe item, a tunic can only be worn on the beach. What clothes to combine it with in everyday life and how to choose a style that is relevant for this season? Let's figure it out together.

Spring Fashion Features:

  • cotton or blended fabrics;
  • colors - aquamarine, mint, hot pink, azure;
  • the difference from last year is the coldness of shades and clarity of drawings.

The girls will have to warm up in early spring. In March, tunics made of dense fabrics with 3/4 sleeves are relevant. The color also changes slightly: the beginning of the month is indicated by blue, mustard and dark pink.

The trendy style of this year is minimalist cut and ethnic motives. Elongated loose-fitting tunics are the favorites of the season. The product with variable length looks original. That is, the front can be shorter than the back.




There are no specific selection criteria for everyday wear. The tunic can be elongated, cropped, fitted, loose, plain or with a print. The main thing is that the model looks good on your body type. You can combine the product with leggings, jeggings, jeans, trousers.

If you prefer a discreet style of clothing, designers offer tunic models that look like elongated shirts. They can be masculine and feminine. The paradox of minimalism tunics is that they go well with pumps and demi-season boots.

You can stand out from the crowd with the help of asymmetric tunics, which slender girls can wear even with nylon tights. The main thing is that the length allows.


Advice! Pay attention to the grunge tunics. Photos of fashion shows are full of a variety of asymmetric models with raw seams, torn edges and a deep neckline.

What's trending this summer?

To feel comfortable in the summer and not constantly hide from the heat, choose tunics made of lightweight fabrics. They allow the body to breathe and help avoid sunburn.




When choosing a fashionable model, you need to consider the following characteristics:

  • actual length - mini;
  • perfect combination with floor-length skirts and loose trousers;
  • all shades of green are in fashion (especially aqua and turquoise);
    purple looks great;
  • tunic material - silk or chiffon;
  • decorative elements - flounces, bows, small draperies;
  • prints in oriental style.

The main feature of the completed summer style of a modern girl is that the upper and lower parts of the outfit should be in the same color scheme.

Tunics from natural fabrics are at the peak of popularity. They are comfortable and allow the body to breathe. Among the advantages of the material is also the ability to absorb moisture and create the necessary conditions for ventilation.

At the latest fashion shows, designers presented summer tunics made of weightless silk and exquisite lace. One of the conditions for choosing is a free fit.




The slits on the side seams are tempting, revealing the thigh line.
A worthy version of a tunic from a democratic price category is linen and cotton. The material is able to maintain the optimum temperature.

Cotton tunic should be thin trapezoidal cut. Cut-out and lace inserts will remind you of femininity and sensuality, which is more relevant in summer than ever.

Openwork knitting will become one-piece styles worthy of competitors. But it is more suitable for relaxing on the beach, which we will talk about later.

Advice! When choosing the length of the tunic, give preference to the long version. Loose fit combined with flowing fabrics create a divine image. Well, who doesn't want to become a Goddess?

Autumn style

In 2017, stylists and designers suggest choosing a tunic not only for practical reasons, but also for aesthetic reasons. A detail of the wardrobe must certainly emphasize the smoothness of the curves of the female body, despite the fact that the weather becomes changeable and moody.



For the autumn onion of 2017, it is characteristic:

  • synthetic materials, merino wool, cotton inserts;
  • large coarse knitting and openwork knitting;
  • pastel shades of clothing, ash pink, turquoise, gray, blue, cream;
  • inserts of leather, lace and guipure;
  • sleeves-lanterns.

Long, loose-fitting tunics are comfortable for daily wear. If you add a belt to an elongated model made of warm fabric, you get a neat and original dress. You can combine the product with leggings, jeans, straight-cut trousers.


The assortment of fabrics for tunics is striking in variety. You can choose satin, knitwear, cotton, tulle mesh, leather, silk, linen, quilting and other types of fabric. Do not refuse shiny products, they add festivity and elegance to the image.

Advice! Choose an animal print. The most relevant in 2017 are leopard print, imitation of reptile skin and imitation of plumage of exotic birds. Abstract art and geometry are used in ethnic style.

How to keep warm in winter

As we can see, the tunic is really a versatile item in the wardrobe. You can choose a model for any time of the year and at the same time look stylish and sophisticated. Winter options are no exception. Designers care about women, so they offer warm, comfortable tunics for everyday wear.





Features of winter models:

  • classic products are sewn on the basis of wool, but this is not the only fabric option;
  • bat sleeves will hide the flaws of full arms;
  • Choose a V-neck if nature has endowed you with narrow shoulders and wide hips, so the silhouette is visually balanced;
  • oval neckline is a great solution for wide shoulders and narrow hips;
  • a neat collar emphasizes the gracefulness and fragility of petite girls.

Warm tunic dresses occupy an honorable place on the fashion catwalks in 2017. They are suitable for office style. Tunic-shirts also contribute to creating a working mood. Most often they are made from cotton and viscose. The model goes well with a woolen cardigan or vest.




Be careful when choosing a box tunic. A straight cut can both hide figure flaws and visually add volume where it is not needed. In turn, voluminous models are suitable only for slender tall girls. Petite and plump women can look ridiculous in such an outfit.

Advice! If you are a slim girl, look for tight tunics or mini models. For overweight girls, loose fit or high-waisted products are suitable.

Fashion for obese women

If, nevertheless, you did not have time to lose a few extra pounds, do not despair, tunics are created just for you! Initially, this wardrobe element was created by designers as a model of a light shirt that hides figure flaws.
When choosing a tunic, pay attention to the elongated models of mustard or dark blue. Vertical stripes or patterns will perfectly complement the image and make it bright.




Regardless of weight, plus size girls can look amazing. Let's take a closer look at the tips of stylists who claim that the fashion for naturalness has returned:

  • emphasize curvy breast shapes with an original neckline;
  • mask large hips and belly with a voluminous tunic with a thin belt;
  • avoid bulky embroidery and other massive details.

Geometric shapes are at their peak in 2017, so do not neglect the check pattern. By the way, the vertical strip is slimming. If you are tired of geometry and want to make the image brighter, choose an abstraction or a floral drawing. However, be careful, large intricate ornaments can turn you into a shapeless incomprehensible panel. Small, low-contrast prints such as watercolor patterns are ideal for women of fashion.



Advice! Designers offer curvy women a large selection of tunics in different styles, colors and prints. Don't be afraid to try on the model you like. 2017's motto is experiment!

How to look stunning on the beach?

For a whole year we have been waiting for summer to go to the sea, relax there and sunbathe. Therefore, it is important that your vacation is perfect. Choosing the right wardrobe will improve your mood.


If you are overweight, purchase elongated models. The choice of a beach tunic depends on the individual characteristics of a woman's appearance. If you are overweight, but you want to look amazing in the photo, get elongated models. If your legs are slender without a gram of cellulite, pay attention to mini-tunics.

Monochromaticity is back in vogue. A white or black tunic dress will help to emphasize your tan. But if you are tired of the gray everyday life and want to make your life brighter, choose models in pastel colors. Stretching colors in the form of a gradient looks beautiful on a light fabric. If you are a fan of prints, animalistic colors are relevant in 2018. Also, the fashion for flowers has not faded away since the last beach season.

The highlight is the tunic, made of thick knit lace material.


Tunic in a nautical style

The bodices are presented by fashion houses in different versions, but the strap thrown over one shoulder becomes a bright hit of this year. Lace fabric will add sexuality to the image. A wide top looks less defiant. You can decorate it with fringes, rhinestones and sequins, which are back in fashion.

Advice! You can hide problem areas of the body as much as possible with a tunic dress. Choose products made from lightweight materials. Another plus of the product is that it is great for girls whose skin burns easily in the sun.

The sleeves are slightly shortened and the neckline is shallow. Suitable for walking with friends, romantic date and shopping. The cut can be either loose or tight.

Fashion ideas 2018: tunics on video

It is difficult to imagine a summer wardrobe without a light tunic that does not fit the figure, but flows freely, hiding all the visible flaws in the figure. Tunics traditionally become a salvation for women with an "apple" figure, as well as for pregnant women who do not want to focus on their interesting position. Tunics are always in fashion, but if you want to fit into the fashion trends of the current season, you should familiarize yourself with what new designers have to offer.

Lace tunics

Lace makes any outfit look festive and, in some cases, quite seductive. In the case of a tunic, you definitely do not overdo it with the second quality, because this wardrobe item has a spacious cut by default. The tunic can be completely lace or have partly lace decoration, for example, a trim.

Fringed tunics

Fringe became a real hit in 2016, so it would be extremely surprising not to see this decorative element on tunics, for which it is more than typical in their original form. Fringe can be traditionally located along the border of the tunic or decorate it on the front shelves.

Slouchy tunics

The slouchy tunic has either a sewn-in elastic band or a drawstring to adjust the width. Slouching has always been and remains a great technique to mask a prominent belly. If this is your problem, then be sure to choose tunics with a printed pattern and slouch. A slouchy tunic made of solid fabric is reminiscent of the motives of Greek silhouettes, so choose this model if you want to try on the Greek style.

Batwing Sleeve Tunics

Bat sleeves were common in the 1980s, and today summer tunics are a good way to go back to that time. For girls with a good figure, it is recommended to stay on tunics of standard length or slightly shortened, if the figure requires correction not only in the area of \u200b\u200bfull arms, then stop at long tunics with wide sleeves.

Floral tunics

Floral designs adorn fashionable women's tunics in the most variegated versions. These are small flowers in the chest area, and in the area of \u200b\u200bthe edge of the tunic and on the sleeves, and large floral arrangements stretched over the entire area of \u200b\u200bthe tunic.

Tunics with embroidery

Embroidery with floral designs and other folk motifs is another classic that is characteristic of a summer tunic. Do not be embarrassed by the bright embroidery that makes the tunic authentic - it is very relevant today.

Tunics with bright prints

Palm leaves, large tropical flowers, mixed exotic plants, psychedelic and futuristic motives, urbanism and animalism - all this is a great decoration for a summer tunic made of light chiffon.

Long tunic dresses

In 2016, oversized dresses are in fashion, and for the summer you can look for a cute long tunic - to the floor or midi length. These tunics do not require a bottom, and they are great for vacation style, for a look on the beach with Roman sandals, flip flops. It is very easy to wear them in the city in the summer, combined with simple flat ballerinas or open clogs.

Light summer chiffon tunics

A chiffon tunic is an irreplaceable thing for a woman of any age in hot summer. This is especially true for women with a problem figure who cannot afford to wear sleeveless tops or fitted blouses. In addition, chiffon tunics are most often produced with bright fashionable prints, which additionally disguises the figure and allows you to create a cheerful summer style.

Tunics in ethnic or folk style

The tunic came to us from the times of Antiquity, and modern tunics are nothing more than new interpretations of those very ancient Roman and Greek tunics. And today the models closest to them are in fashion, simple, unpretentious, straight cut, with clean lines and light shades.

In summer, our wardrobe is always brighter and more varied than in other seasons. And every year, as an alternative to T-shirts, stylish and fashionable tunics are becoming more and more popular, as well as sports-style shirts that can be worn as summer jackets. What models do designers offer to full girls and women for the 2016 summer season?

Summer tunics and T-shirts made of cotton, silk, viscose or fine knitwear - usually a semi-fitted silhouette. Therefore, they look beautiful on full figures, do not add volume and make you feel comfortable. And they are suitable even for very full girls, if you successfully choose the style, color scheme and print.

And tunics of original styles, like the model on the first collage, made of chiffon, silk or viscose, will make it possible to create a harmonious ensemble or jeans, for work or leisure, for women over 35. Layering and asymmetrical bottom will successfully hide lush hips.

The summer trend is bare shoulders.

The most fashionable T-shirts and tunics of 2016 - with a lowered shoulder line, more precisely - with a scoop neckline that gracefully exposes the shoulders. Indeed, many overweight women and girls are embarrassed to choose sundresses and dresses, tops and sleeveless tunics. So such models are a good and stylish solution.

Sleeves can be long or short, narrow or loose. The main thing is that such models are suitable for everyone, regardless of size - from 50 to 58. The scooped neckline on the sleeves visually reduces the volume of the top and adjusts the silhouette.

Another fashionable style of blouses - with a horizontal line of the bodice and back, with narrow or wide straps .. These models can be feminine silhouette, if made of plastic fabrics, or sporty, if made of denim, cotton or linen.

You may also choose a model of a blouse or tunic with a deep boat neckline that also reveals the shoulders. The emphasis in such a model can be placed on the original style of the back. In an elegant blouse, the cutouts on the sleeves can be decorated with lace or crystals.

Fashionable styles.

As well as, there will be fashionable tunics, T-shirts and blouses with an asymmetrical bottom. The most popular are diagonal, semicircle, or contrasting lengths.

In these two graceful summer blouses made of viscose or silk chiffon, the asymmetry of the bodice or bottom is complemented by the successful shape of the neckline of the front. Both the curly vertical neckline and the collar-collar, falling down in soft folds, visually lengthen the neck.

Usually, overweight women are not recommended to choose things of a free silhouette, especially those with numerous folds. But summer tunics and blouses are an exception. Their length - to the line of the hips or slightly below, does not allow the folds to create additional volume. These blouse models are suitable for girls who prefer a feminine or romantic style.

Sports shirts.

Sports style shirts will help you to create a summer ensemble with a top. One of the interesting prints of the season for blouses, T-shirts and tunics is abstract vertical stripes in bright colors or in black and white.

A more restrained and elegant ensemble will be a linen or cotton shirt in gray and white tones, a gray or black top, with black trousers.

Since the style of the 70s returned to fashion, the technique of dyeing fabric - "boiled", with the help of which interesting patterns on the fabric are created, also returned. You can choose T-shirts with a pattern in the form of circles or stripes.

Girls with clothing sizes 54 - 58, with neat fullness, can choose a sports style blouse made of cotton, linen or thin denim of a semi-adjacent silhouette. They can also be worn as a summer blazer. A more feminine option is a blouse made of translucent fabric combined with a white top and bright trousers.

The trendiest colors are white, cream and pale blue. A fashionable detail is the long sleeves that allow you to fold them up in style.

If the figure is not quite perfect, then models of a semi-adjacent silhouette with a drawstring or wide elastic band, gently accentuating the waist or hip line, are more suitable. The most successful example from the summer 2016 collections is these 2 stylish linen blouses in sizes 54 - 56.

For girls with a short neck, a light blue model with a triangular neckline is more suitable. The bottom of the semicircular shape will help to adjust the volume of the hips.

This summer, you can opt for sporty plaid shirts as a contrast to striped blouses. High side slits allow you to wear these knotted models on vacation. They blend harmoniously with jeans, capri pants and shorts.

The optimal size of the cage, both in the models of shirts without sleeves and with long sleeves, is average, 5 - 8 cm. Things from a cage of this size do not make the figure fat.

Tunics in a nautical style.

Every summer is not complete without tunics, tops and blouses in a nautical style - with bright stripes. Narrow transverse stripes in semi-fitted silhouette models - do not increase the volume of the hips, if the chosen length is good.

For girls with a pear figure, it is better to choose models of tunics and T-shirts with stripes on the bodice and a monochromatic bottom in a dark color - the emphasis from the hips to move to the chest area.

For girls and women with an "apple" silhouette, especially with clothing sizes 54 - 60, blouses made of fabric with diagonal stripes and a triangular neckline are suitable.

Fashionable summer prints.

The most relevant are floral motifs, geometric and abstract. Color accents are orange, crimson, aqua and emerald. You can compensate for this bright palette with monochrome trousers and capri pants, in both neutral and saturated colors.


For several years in a row, tunics have taken pride of place in women's wardrobe. And this is not surprising, because tunics are quite versatile, comfortable, practical, stylish and fashionable clothes. Tunics can be worn by women of different ages. They can be matched to any type of figure, hide flaws and emphasize advantages. According to the tunic model, these are cropped dresses. They can be worn with jeans, trousers, leggings and skirts. And the most daring girls wear a tunic just like a dress.

The standard length of tunics reaches mid-thigh, but well-known brands offer elongated options for fashionistas. Elongated items are practical and comfortable. They can be combined with leggings, jeans, or can be worn as a summer dress.


FASHION PRINTS

Floral prints are still in vogue, especially in red and black. It is worth paying attention to beach tunics of opaque texture with imitation of silk fabric. They look very beautiful on girls with an oriental appearance or fair skin, as well as on bright blondes.



Complex geometry, clear graphics or abstract bright curly lines - the choice is yours. Paul and Joe, Tommy Hilfiger, Suno, Moschino and many other brands call for tunics with original geometric patterns. It should be noted that the modern interpretation of fashionable stripes and checks allows these prints to be applied not only to casual and business clothes, but also to wardrobe items related to glamorous and evening style.



FASHION COLORS

The classics of all times and peoples remain unchanged - black and white (both colors are allowed in the design of one tunic), cream, blue, red, peach and pink. These are the main fashionable colors of tunics for 2016, which are not only widely demanded by all design houses in Europe, but are also perfectly complemented by all shades of the rainbow, since they are neutral.




Tunic was originally called straight garment with a one-piece front. As a rule, this type of clothing does not have a collar, although modern interpretations do not always meet this condition. Due to its practicality and versatility, this wardrobe item is one of the most popular in everyday life, especially when it comes to the warm season. Tunics go well with leggings, a variety of T-shirts and tops. They can also be worn as a stand-alone garment. What tunics have eminent designers pampered us with in the spring-summer 2016 season?

The grunge style has been in demand for decades. This phenomenon has a completely understandable explanation - this direction does not tolerate being tied to some fashion trends. This only means that women of fashion who prefer grunge can wear things without worrying about their compatibility or appearance. On the contrary, torn areas, rough edges, "coughs", etc. are now actively used by designers to create modern images (Acne Studios, Ashish, Acne Studios, Marques Almeida). In addition, this style can be attributed to asymmetrical disproportionate things, casually thrown over one shoulder, models with a defiantly deep neckline, which are best worn over other things, as well as a manner of combining completely different styles. Striking examples of tunics in the grunge style were products from the latest collections of Marques Almeida, Barbara Bui, Damir Doma, 6397, Creatures of Comfort, BCBG Max Azria.

Tunics can be made in a variety of styles, which is why this wardrobe item is in such demand. For those who prefer clothes in restrained masculine tones, you can pay attention to models that in appearance resemble elongated shirts, which can have both classic male and female features. Examples of such tunics were offered by Diesel Black Gold, Chalayan, Maiyet, Aquilano, Milly, Tia Cibani.

Initially, all tunics were made in a loose cut, which does not hinder freedom of movement. It is enough to remember what the ancient Romans and Greeks wore to imagine what the first models looked like. Only later, with the development of fashion trends, the cut of these wardrobe items began to constantly change - from incredibly wide to fitted. While some designers are trying to give tunics a strict masculine features, others have turned to the original sources - wide and free lines. Similar options are found in the collections of Ulla Johnson, Sportmax, Rick Owens, Chalayan, Maison Rabih Kayrouz, Raquel Allegra, Hellessy.

Fashionable tunics in the style of minimalism

The minimalism style is also in no hurry to leave the fashion catwalk. Such tunics are distinguished by a strict, restrained cut, mainly achromatic and monochromatic tones, the absence of any decorative elements. Some models are more suitable for ascetic-minded women of fashion, who tend to reject all the pleasures of life. If you also don't like unnecessary jewelry, bright colors and numerous explicit cutouts, pay attention to the lines of Nili Lotan, APC, Brock Collection, Anthony Thomas Melillo, Valentino, Vionnet. These tunics can be worn both as an independent wardrobe item and in combination with classic jeans. It’s a paradox, but such things get along well with pumps, and with “soldier's” boots.

The asymmetrical cut is also still in vogue. It seems that women of fashion are not at all tired of disproportionate lines, cuts and color. Despite the fact that asymmetry has dominated fashion shows for many seasons in a row, this does not diminish its popularity in the least. The asymmetrical cut has touched almost all wardrobe items, including tunics (Ports 1961, Whit, J. Mendel, Lacoste, Isabel Marant, Dsquared). You can feel free to experiment with the cut, adding or reducing the amount of fabric in the right places, combining completely opposite fabrics in texture, making cutouts in the most unexpected areas.

Tunics in sporty style spring-summer 2016

Lacoste, Hunter Original, Bottega Veneta and some other brands delighted their fans with sports tunics, which are often complemented by laces, ties, hoods, zippers - any details that can simplify the life of a sports-oriented girl in her everyday life. Such things are great for jogging, going outdoors and any other active pastime. In addition, tunics in a sporty style are suitable for grunge and casual styles.

The new spring-summer season has pleased us with a huge selection of fashionable fabrics that designers have used for their tunics. For cool summer evenings and late spring, brands have released a whole series of knitted tunics that can keep you warm in bad weather. In addition, due to their porous structure, such fabrics perfectly allow air to pass through, so even in the conditions of the brightly warming sun, the fashionista will not feel discomfort. Knitted tunics were suggested to be worn by Anrealage, Arthur Arbesser, Derek Lam, Tommy Hilfiger, Sonia Rykiel, Pringle of Scotland, Sibling. Moreover, all types of knitting can be used - from manual to machine.

Chloe, Alexander McQueen, Sportmax, Issa, Anna Sui, Diesel Black Gold, Tracy Reese, Clover Canyon, Pringle of Scotland, Tracy Reese, Marco de Vincenzo, Nanette Lepore used the Richelieu technique, lace, perforations, giving their products an unprecedented romance and mystery ...

Philipp Plein, Marcelo Burlon, Chloe, Philosophy di Lorenzo Serafini, DKNY, Babyghost, Felder Felder, Marques Almeida have included in their clothing lines numerous variations of sheer models that can be used both as beach tunics and as casual wear. Well, as you would expect, most brands have decided that transparent fabrics should be worn over the naked body, without using underwear. Whether you dare to repeat such a feat is up to you!

In addition, designers have replenished their collections with a number of pleated (Vanessa Seward, Tracy Reese, Maison Margiela), leather (Au Jour Le Jour, Gareth Pugh, Anthony Vaccarello, Barbara Bui) tunics, as well as models made of large sequins and round plastic elements (Marni, Jeremy Scott, KTZ, Gareth Pugh, Au Jour Le Jour). Christopher Raeburn, Christopher Kane preferred to use multi-texture elements. Quite often there are products in the patchwork style.

If we talk about the fashionable length, then the designers did not put forward any special requirements. The only thing to consider is that the length of the tunics cannot be shorter than the hip line, otherwise such items of clothing are called T-shirts. If you like long clothes, pay attention to the collections of Missoni, Mara Hoffman, Junya Watanabe, Orley, Kaelen, Talbot Runhof. Mini and midi tunics were suggested to be worn by Ellery, Cedric Charlier, Trina Turk, See by Chloe, etc.

As for the choice of fashionable colors, brands also offered a fairly wide range in this matter. So, Moschino, Costume National, Tamara Mellon, Iceberg preferred achromatic and beige tones, Acne Studios used green and blue fur, Betsey Johnson, Michael Kors, Sonia by Sonia Rykiel, Lyn Devon, Clover Canyon, Tess Giberson pleased with sunny warm tones ( brick red, sand, yellow, orange, orange), and some brands decided to use several trendy colors in one product at once (Betsey Johnson, Arthur Arbesser).

Fashionable prints almost exactly repeat the fashionable designs of previous seasons. However, it should be noted that in the spring-summer period of 2016 the stripes became the indisputable leader. In addition to them, in the collections you can find floral, animal motifs, paisley, military, ethnic, abstraction, prints reminiscent of rich and bright oil paintings (Missoni, Tommy Hilfiger, J Mendel, Versace, Dolce & Gabbana, Juicy Couture, Betsey Johnson, Apiece Apart ).

I was also pleased with the fashionable decor. Fringe, sequins (Polo Ralph Lauren, Gareth Pugh), embroidery and appliqués (Giambattista Valli, Carolina Herrera, House of Holland, Tracy Reese, Versace) are the most common.

These are the tunic models for spring-summer 2016 that the most titled brands of the world have delighted admirers of fashion traditions. As you can see, not a single style, not a single fashion trend was left without attention. Fans of minimalism will find an outlet in ascetic models, lovers of novelty and shocking - in bright asymmetrical versions. Among all the variety, you can also find classics, grunge, tunics in masculine and even glamorous style.
