I can still remember that back in school our teachers used to ask us to tuck our clothes in and wear the shirt neatly. And unexpectedly, “asymmetry” has become one of the top fashion trends today. In most cultures, symmetry presents as perfection. However, this concept seems to be broken in the era of uncertainty that we are living in right now.
On catwalks of well-known fashion brands, we can find asymmetric tailoring, dislocation of fabrics, collage of different materials, and large-scale destruction and cutouts in their designs. These imperfect elements are like codes that echo the chaos and uneasiness of the society under the pandemic. At the same time, they are refined into powerful visual effects through design and create a new fashion that subverts the general aesthetics in this troubled time.
Dislocation of Fabrics:
Break the Conventional Aesthetic This month, we will bring you several low-key items with asymmetrical and fashionable details to make your outfits more layered and interesting.
This asymmetrical cardigan has one side of the placket fixed on the other side. Through the dislocation of the silhouette, it becomes visually more playful and casual. And this wrap-around tailoring cleverly has a little part of the collarbone revealed which can make the heaviness of knitwear more breathable and sexy.
This top and skirt co-ord with a cable knitting pattern illustrates the feminine curves with soft-tone color, its cropped top reveals the waist a bit, and the fit tailoring keeps you warm and makes your body flatter. The wrap skirt makes the woven pattern more layered and with a better sense of design through the dislocation. Even if the set is low-key with the same color and material, it can also make a high profile look through the asymmetrical details.
Asymmetric Cutouts:
the Self-Contained Rebellious Beauty The bodycon dress in nude tone from this collection is beautiful and not boring. The large cutout on the collar reveals the clavicle, and there is also a small cutout on the waist. The design breaks the integrity and adds a bit of rebellion to this soft and upscale dress. It's hot in a high-class way!
Collage the Different Materials:
A Brand New Imagination of Daily Wear In addition to breakthroughs in tailoring, we have also observed a shift in material trends. Many brands are freer to collage with different materials, and sometimes they even challenge the established aesthetics.
Not only are stage costumes suitable for the design of different materials, but daily wear can also integrate into this trend and build a new OOTD.
This time we matched the retro casual striped polo cardigan with leather pants, the softness of knitting eases the icy manner of the leather pants. And it also gives a simple outfit more personality and details.
The tweet plaid coat from this collection is a cute and well-designed item. Through the collage of plaid fabric outside and the lined shearling inside, no matter which side you wear, the contrast of different materials will show on both the collar and the cuffs. It's one single item with the illusion of two pieces complementing each other.
Aesthetics has always been subjective, but as trends change, we can try to look at fashion and clothing from a broader perspective, or even ourselves. Try to embrace the part of you that you used to think was imperfect, and you may find that nothing is absolute, and it's always full of possibilities.
