"100,000 Why" didn't tell you the cold knowledge of fashion Vol.5
I once chatted with Ahua and talked about the names of tea break skirt and platycodon grandiflorum skirt, which made people confused. We always think that we love fashion and are familiar with these names, but we can't tell the historical origin and the origin of the names.

Instead of counting how to wear it every day, it is better to study fashionable items with names.

Tea break skirt

It's really a tea suit.

Tea break skirt is a literal translation from English "Tea Dress", which originated in Europe and is a dress worn by aristocratic ladies in afternoon tea.

She is not as formal as an evening dress, and can give consideration to comfort and elegance. Dressing in tea is a quiet leisure time, so it translates into a tea break skirt.

This kind of skirt is not as big as the traditional one in Europe, so it is more convenient and comfortable to wear. Also pay attention to the length of the hem, so as to better set off the waist.

Medieval Europe wore a very tight waist, which made it impossible to swallow enough food at a formal dinner. Tea time is not only a time for them to relax, but also a time for them to eat. A tea break skirt that exposes the waist without being too tight is the source of happiness for these girls.

At that time, the tea break skirt was not completely in its present state, much like the suit collar dress popular in recent years. The length of the skirt is not as convenient as it is now, but it still needs to be at the ankle. The reason why the tea break skirt looks so elegant is because this single product has a history of 100 years and exists in the fashion circle with a retro attitude.

The improved tea break skirt actually draws lessons from the wrap skirt.

The tea break skirt we are talking about now is more similar to the tea break wrap skirt designed and launched by Diane von Furstenberg, the founder of DVF, in 1974. Keep the collar and shorten the hem length.

Once the wrap skirt was introduced, it was very popular and became a symbol of women's potential and independence in the whole era. Now it seems that this kind of skirt is actually very suitable for commuting, the design of the suit collar has its own sense of formality, and the V-line is not as deep as it is now.

At first, the tea break skirt was not famous for its broken flowers and retro colors, but for its knitted fabrics and elegant prints. 1976, DVF sold millions of tea break skirts and became the cover of Newsweek magazine.

Diane von Furstenberg also said that many clothes are very strict with women, and you must lose weight before you can wear them. But tea break clothes are very tolerant of a woman's figure. No matter what your figure is, she can present beauty.

French tea break skirts are very popular now.

The popular tea break skirt is actually an improved French version or an improved South French version.

For girls in South France, floral and retro colors can always express their demands for fashion. Different from chic in Paris, Nanfa has a sense of leisure on holiday.

Jenny Damace prefers the double-breasted waist style in the choice of tea break skirt, which is very convenient to wear and can also depict the waistline more charming.

This kind of skirt is more suitable for girls with less waist and abdomen fat, and ordinary lace is more convenient to adjust the waistline.

Be friendly to big breasts and small breasts

The tea-break skirt is loved by everyone, because it can describe any body as sexy and charming.

For friends with big breasts, it is recommended to choose the same dress as Jenny Damace. The deep V design does not show a big chest, but also shows a slender neck.

Girls with small breasts are suitable for choosing flounces, and the swelling feeling on the chest can weaken the feeling of thinness.

Similarly, if you want to decorate the arm lines, you can choose straight sleeves or bubble sleeves. The tea break skirt, which covers the thigh and waist fat, can adjust your figure to the most charming appearance.

"Platycodon grandiflorum skirt"

French platycodon grandiflorum skirt is named after the day.

Although the skirt of Platycodon grandiflorum is full of French retro feeling, it is named after a Japanese cartoon character-Platycodon grandiflorum (named after China, but there is no such name abroad).

Platycodon grandiflorum is a character in the Japanese cartoon Inuyasha. He usually dresses up as a witch, wears a white coat with a red kimono skirt, and looks like rya.

The characteristic of Platycodon grandiflorum skirt is high waist A-line skirt. Visually slim, it can show the slender figure of girls.

The popular platycodon grandiflorum skirt in real life is definitely different from rya, and most of them are romantic, retro and elegant.

Platycodon skirt is also a derivative of tea break skirt.

The platycodon grandiflorum skirt is actually a derivative version of the tea break skirt. High waist design, V-neck cut, similar to a tea break skirt.

The only difference is that the cuffs of the platycodon grandiflorum skirt are mostly trumpet-shaped, and the thigh skin can't be seen in the lower part.

Platycodon grandiflorum skirt VS tea break skirt

Two sets of development of a skirt

Platycodon grandiflorum skirt and tea-rest skirt have chosen two different States in their development. Although they all originated from the traditional tea break skirt, the platycodon grandiflorum skirt paid more attention to height and length and evolved into a more casual state.

Platycodon skirt is suitable for festivals, and it can also cover up the lack of figure. Both she and the tea break skirt have maintained a V-neck design, in order to better highlight the neck and slim waist of the show.

At present, the platycodon grandiflorum skirt refers to a high waist skirt, and the upper body can be called a platycodon grandiflorum skirt regardless of any design.

Car wash skirt

It's not for car washing.

"Car wash skirt" must have a place in the confusing naming list of fashion circles, and most people will think it is a car wash skirt.

The naming principle of car wash skirt is actually because the cloth strip at the skirt hem is very similar to the cleaning roller of automatic car wash, which makes people feel very surprised.

Small history of car wash skirt

Car wash skirt was once considered as the ugliest fashion item in 20 15, but the history of this skirt has actually been a century.

In the 1920s, the most fashionable female group in the West was flapper girls (the Great Gatsby Age). They listen to jazz, have short hair and wear low-waisted sleeveless dresses.

The car wash skirt evolved from the low-waisted pleated skirt at that time.

You will find that the pleats of pleated skirts have been cut open and become the skirts of car wash skirts, because late-night parties were very popular in the United States at that time.

Nobles and upstarts like dancing very much. The folds of the car wash skirt are easier to disperse than the pleated skirt, and swing more gracefully with the dance.

Development of car wash skirt

Until the 1990s, car wash skirts were still the first choice for fashionistas. Although the style has changed from low waist to high waist, the loose pleats of the skirt have not changed.

Car wash skirts are really a 30-year cycle. As long as the time is up, major brands will let car wash skirts meet with you one after another.

Feather skirt-an upgraded version of car wash skirt

The car wash skirt was originally created to make women show the greatest beauty when dancing.

Because modern dance is different from social dance in the past, disco can't turn around even in a car wash skirt.

In modern fashion circles, car wash skirts are more similar to feather skirts. You can also achieve elegant results when dancing, and it will look better when you turn around.

However, both the car wash skirt and the feather skirt feel bloated, so it is best to choose a miniskirt or choose a dress directly.

"wrap skirt"

The dress born in the church?

The biggest difference between wrap skirt and wrap skirt here is a dress that is an outer skirt. Wrapped skirts first appeared in churches, and were prepared for people who were naked or dressed out of line.

Generally brown or black, it can cover all the lower body before entering the church without affecting the solemnity of the church.

This kind of skirt was very convenient to wear at that time, and it was mostly composed of a lace and a square cloth. Because there are other pants or skirts in the lower part of the skirt, there are not many requirements for her style.

However, after wrapping, the square cloth is shaped into an irregular design. The looming skin can set off the leg lines and is loved by fashionistas.

Birth control pills

It is worth mentioning that the wrap skirt and the birth control pill were born together in 1970, which both mean the liberation of women's freedom.

In the past, western women were not allowed to have abortions or show their thighs. But after 1970, women began to be truly liberated.

The wrap skirt has no zipper and buttons, and it only tightens the clothes by the wrap design of the belt. Seemingly simple design, but very close-fitting and comfortable, perfectly showing the charming and graceful figure of women.

Failed again because of deconstructive design.

By 20 17 and 18, deconstructive design was very popular in the fashion world. Asymmetric coats and shirts emerge one after another, and wrapped skirts are turned over again.

The wrap skirt is no longer to show the thighs gracefully, but to add a lot of shirts to wear.

This elegant single item began to be injected with neutral elements and began to become more full and complete.

"grandma skirt"

Why doesn't my grandmother wear it?

Grandma's skirt is actually a high-necked printed skirt. The official name is grassland skirt, which is also grassland skirt.

This kind of skirt also originated in Europe and belongs to the skirts that working-class women often wear.

As for why it is called grandma's skirt, it may be because the design of not exposing meat from neck to heel is very popular with grandma.

The combination of Bohemia and Victoria.

Bohemia belongs to the category of national style, while Victoria is the combination of court style.

Because of the print design, this skirt has a sense of national romance, and because of the bubble sleeves and Victoria circle, it has a sense of retro.

Bubble sleeves can also widen the shoulder line at the same time, which is more gorgeous and retro.

More upgraded versions

Because grandma's skirt is too long, it is a minefield for many petite girls. The upgraded version of grandma's skirt goes to the middle of the knee, which can better show the essence of long legs.

Now grandma's coat has been developed, and the design of bubble sleeves is very temperament, which is also welcomed by fashion circles.

Compared with fashion itself, the cold knowledge behind fashion is more thought-provoking. Every fashion change always hides the liberation of human nature or the yearning for freedom, but also hides colorful and interesting knowledge.

So the next time you see fashionable clothes, speak out the interesting philosophy behind them.
