Below are the fashion from Chanel, 1970’s :
1973 ,In the 1970’s, plaid and matching suits were very popular . A coat was paired with skirt to give unique look, and as we all know Chanel is famous for its uniqueness.
In 1970’s Chanel Ribbon-weave wool pleated skirt fitted dress suit
This breathtaking ribbon-weave wool two-piece suit is a perfect example of why this couture brand has stood the test of time. Not only is this little number very elegant; it is so versatile and timeless. I adore the fitted, side-pockets cropped jacket. Its a statement piece on it’s own and can totally be paired with jeans. The nipped-waist pleated swing-skirt side finished this garment off with a perfect “sophisticated” silhouette. As Coco Chanel used to say, “Fashion fades, only style remains.”
1979, Chanel Tweed jackets are popular
Easy to see the 1970’s fashion trend was so colorful. Especially for dresses such as evening gowns and skirts.
Many women had different dresses for different occasions. They wore evening gowns at home, which were silky smooth, loose fitting and very comfortable. They were also known as ankle sweepers.
In 1970’s midi skirts also called the longuette, mid-calf length skirt
STYLE
Style is expressing yourself through what you wear. Style is defined as a particular of doing or saying something, or refers to a unique form of clothing or way of arranging your appearance. An example of style is the method by which you learn.
Below are the style of Beyonce Knowles:
ALL WHITE:While black always looks flattering, Bee knows that some special occasions call for white instead. Divinely beautiful, an all white look can have an impact far more striking than any black dress. Beyonce proves this point with ease as she often takes to the red carpet in head-to-toe white and looks stunning.
Plunging Necklines and Cutouts: Sheer fabric isn’t the only way that Beyonce flaunts her amazing body; she also loves to wear plunging necklines and cutouts. Whether she’s wearing a gown made from lace, covered in sequins, embellished with jewels or even a glamorous jumpsuit, Bey balances the long length with a flash of skin at the décolletage
Pencil Skirts:The ever-elegant Beyonce knows the value of a classic fashion item and silhouette. While she has no problem showing off her body, she also has no problem covering it up if her sartorial prowess tells her to do so. When it comes to street style, a pencil skirt may not be the most daring choice, but it can be a stylish and classy one. Beyonce nails the pencil skirt by wearing it with heels for an elevated casual look.
Vivid Color:Ever since her Destiny’s Child days, Bee has loved the use of color in fashion. While most fashion stars live in a regular uniform of black and white styles, Queen B beats the boring with an injection of high-intensity, vivid color.
CLASSIC
