The effect of parallel lines on garments
The striped clothes belong to one of the most common patterns in various fashion trends. The key to it belong to one or the other are the colors that converge on a single design , the line width and position.
The latter represents a whole strategy to provoke a specific volume effect of who the carrier.
It is known that vertical stripes in a dress makes the body appear longer and thinner than with a plain fabric dress , while those that accommodate the horizontal lines will cause an effect of higher volume, ie, make you look wider waist, arms, etc.. (An alternative is that both positions are combined into a single design, or that the lines are placed in diagonal )
However, there are designers who are not afraid to use both positions in his creations, and perhaps have found a better option using them horizontally in extremely tight clothing to the body, as in the case of clothing Lerga Herve .
A good idea is that combining two color lines, but contrasting or not, reflect more dynamics to the garments.
What you should avoid at all costs to include two items stripes (different colors) on a single outfit . For example, for every line blouse beige, yellow and army green, wearing a jacket or vest in full color is beige. That way, you bring the color of all lines and give opportunity to complement clothing that does not clash.
