Embodiment of tenderness: a dress with a fringe

Funny for the Russian ear the word "barhoma" is a tracing paper from the Arabic "mahrama", which means "handkerchief". Arabs own the idea of decorating handkerchiefs with braid with hanging threads. Now fringes are decorated not only with handkerchiefs. This tradition has become a fashion trend, behind which millions of mods are chasing around the world. Fringe really looks original and interesting, allows you to hide the flaws of the figure and emphasize the dignity.

Fringe inspired many designers to create collections that conquered the world's catwalks. Who just did not use the fringe: and the house of Chanel, and Valentino, and Roberto Cavalli. So, perhaps, grandmother's fringed dress is time to get out of the chest, clean off the dust and ... safely put on a cool party.

Variants of fashionable dresses with fringe set. Short dresses, reminiscent of the costumes of Latin dancers, are decorated with a fringe along the entire length. This garment is very simple to do by yourself: it's enough to sew several rows of fringe on a simple dress on straps. Often you can find a dress with a fringe on the hem. Long threads give a special charm to such outfits.

Very popular models, in which the fringe is only covered with a bodice or a skirt. These dresses with fringe allow you to add volume to the right places and divert attention from not the most winning zones. Long threads on such dresses are able to visually stretch out the silhouette and make it slimmer. The effect of extra volume should be remembered and choosing a dress with drapery. The folds very seriously affect the shape of the figure. They are able to add significantly more volume than the fringe, as well as arrange the semantic accents of the image. Therefore, using folds should be very accurate. Unsuccessful choice of the model with folds can give out all the defects of the figure, and, on the contrary, put the advantages in the shade.

But back to the fringe. A knitted dress with fringe is sure to attract a lot of attention to itself. The fringe is made from the same yarn as the dress. A fringe is not always a thin thread. Sometimes fringe is made of strips of fabric, which are twisted and turned over. This method creates a three-dimensional edging of the ensemble. Most often fringe is used as an additional element, ornaments. For example, dresses in the style of country, as a rule, have sleeves trim fringed. Another spectacular trick is the fringe between the joints of the flared skirt.

When choosing a dress with a fringe, you must not forget that the fringe is an extra volume. In the case of long thin threads, it is insignificant. If tissue strips are used, then this volume becomes palpable.

The 1970s are an epoch of flourishing decor from fringe. Elegant and elegant dresses, trimmed with beaded, silk, leather fringes were at the peak of popularity. I must say that today it is time for them to rebirth. Fashion designers are happy to turn to the theme of the 70's, which are famous for their true elegance, as well as for the hippie theme, in the style of which the fringe also occupies a significant place. The fringe is an invention of the East, therefore it is not at all surprising that with its help one can create fantastic outfits.
