Mixed prints

Mixed prints is often one of the most feared fashion risks, that’s why we see dare devils like Anna Dello Russo, Solange and Elisa Nalin (undisputed queens of mixed prints) taking risks, but we also saw mixed prints on the runways of Proenza Schouler and Rodarte. 

Obviously this new trend can be intimidating at first, but it's actually quite simple and comfortable to wear. Wearing mixed prints is a statement of boldness and confidence. Frankly, if you are able to dress in a similar arrangement and back it up with a fab attitude, people will only see you as an elegant and confident person (which you obviously are).

The secret of the success of this match lies not only in the coherence and consistency , but especially in the element that holds the suit together. In other words, the mainstream. It can be a color, a shape, a theme, etc.. Your layout needs a common point, a trace or a form of resemblance.

 
In my opinion , the most difficult part ,when trying to mix prints, is our habit to want everything to fit perfectly together. Our brains are programmed that way. You must not think like that , just wear it, do it. Essentially, everything goes into the mix of prints . That's what really makes the beauty of the whole and gives meaning to the concept. Once you start experimenting , mixing prints become as natural as choosing pieces that match.


So to sum ​​it all up , just remember:
  • To look for consistency in your articles.
  • To not lose sight of the form / balance of your clothes.
  •  That your base item and or color should act as a neutralizer for your outfit and serves to link your wildest pieces together .
  • To go easy on the accessories, hair and makeup .
  • To mix in some metallic accessories . Your outfit is eccentric enough, that this is your chance to experiment with shiny metal pieces combined with a minimalist hairdo.
Next spring collections will be loaded with these . For the less daring tryout, give your interiors little revamp with an array of cushions , carpets and wallpaper.
